Reservation Blues
The main characters of “Reservation Blues” were affected in different ways by having the choice to stay on the reservation or actually leaving the reservation. The reservation was a place where the Indians could feel at home. Also the reservation was a place that could feel like a closed box to the Indians. Each Coyote Springs band member had a different reason for wanting to leave or stay and he or she each was affected differently also. Many of the other Indians as well as the band members ponder the question of if the band should have stayed on the reservation of if they should have left. There are many positive and negative things for the characters leaving the reservation. One of the positive aspects of leaving the reservation is that Coyote Springs was able to try and get past the “going nowhere life” that could happen if you stayed on the reservation.

This confidence was not easy to find out of the reservation in a competitive world, but when Coyote Springs first started playing in the reservation the natives loved them, came to the practices, and gave them the confidence. The band did not have to have huge popularity because with that comes many new consequences. The band could have just played on the Spokane Reservation and also the neighboring reservations. Once the band left the natives turned against them and the band turned to wanting to come back to the reservation famous and as heroes just to impress everybody. Coyote Springs was not doing it for each other anymore. The band already had the praise of the reservation when they were only the reservations. they have similar people around them. These similar people have the same past, the same understanding of their life, and they all have the reservation connect
