I've been fed up with the state of Country music for a long time. The promoters and producers have a lot more influence than the musicians. So you get a lot of clones who all look and sound alike.

I'll just stick to my 30 year old honky tonk music


I hear a lot of performers that feel the same way. Randy Travis, etc. I understand where you are coming from.

I like 'some' of the old stuff too. I grew up watching Hee Haw and the Glen Campbell Show. It's the stuff that sounds 'whiney' that I can't stand. (Conway Twitty drove me nuts. Just something about his voice?)

I would *love* to see Randy!! He's been here, but just not often.

Off line soon, have a great weekend!!

Was it Waylon Jennings or Merle Haggard that said
"Garth Brooks has done to country music what pantyhose has done to finger-f*cking". I can't remember who. Y'all show listen to Hank III singing "The Grand Ole Opry(Ain't so grand anymore)"
