Country artists

Here's another song ...

^^^ Homewrecking adultress.

Come on now...Garth was chasing her from the get go He had been messing around on Sandy for a long time with other people

Hard to believe someone with a Kenneth Copeland quote in their sigline would try to rationalize adultery.

(BTW - he's a crook)

This forum is a discussion about country music. I wasn't rationalizing anything. Just pointing out that he got himself in trouble with women before he and Trish were an item and it was well known. It isn't like I have an inside scoop on them or something. It was publically known

Clearly a country artist.
 
Pogo

As far as my favorite??


Ive never listened to Dwight Yokam and the couple times I heard him sing, he didnt impress me at all. He looks like a smarmy weasel.
Cowboy Junkies are pretty good.
Lyle....hes an odd bird..but Ive always liked him



:lmao:


I'm just catching up listening to this post-- I love it! :thup:

I so agree with the lyrics -- what's come to be called "country" is nothing more than cheap pandering pretentious corporate rock with a ten gallon hat on. But of course this tune isn't "country", it's bluegrass. And bluegrass just rules.

Did a concert with Ricky Skaggs years ago and at one point he says, "well we don't wanna forget our country fans out there, gonna do a country tune now", and then goes into "Uncle Pen", a Bill Monroe tune as bluegrass as there is.

People ask, what's the difference between 'country' and 'bluegrass'? Simple, sez I --- you have to be a musician to play bluegrass...

Nothing more than cheap pandering pretentious corporate rock with a 10 gallon hat on?? :cry:
lol... thats actually a very accurate description.
oh well, Ill still always like it.
Out of all the concerts Ive seen, Ive never seen a country music one. Been to a couple big fairs with blue grass though. blue grass is awesome...and blue grass people are awesome.


I've worked at a few. One of them was Faith Hill, who I'd never heard of at the time and it was bizarre to watch women making personal pilgrimages up to the stage to touch her.

But that wasn't the strangest thing...

The strangest thing was in one of their tractor trailers was the biggest road case I'd ever seen -- took seven guys to move it onto the stage. Once it was finally in place they opened it up and inside was a grand piano. This in spite of the fact that the venue already has three grand pianos backstage to roll out as needed.

Except it wasn't a grand piano. It was a shell of a grand piano, with no harp inside and no keys. Once they stood it up they sat a $100 Yamaha electric keyboard in it and angled it away from the audience so that you're supposed to think they're playing this nice blond grand piano -- and all it is is a fake prop with a hundred-dollar keyboard sitting in its cavity.

For this they drive around a tractor trailer. Your concert dollars at work.

There just aren't any words sufficient to express my contempt for that level of fakery.


I never thought about stuff like that .( what a cool job that must have been though)
Its all about the performace and money I guess. When bands/singers reach that level of popularity, they have to make touring as easy as possible...its not exactly a small bar they play in every couple nights.

All extreme celebrity worship is weird...but it has been going on forever.
Although not too long ago I did change my phone service to get 3rd row seats/back stage passes to a major concert. It was worth it.:laugh:


Another gig we had Lyle Lovett, who made the venue move the aforementioned grand pianos out of the storage room so he could set up his exercise equipment in there :gay:

And yes, Lyle Lovett really is that ugly in person up close. Did a decent show though.

The things these clowns carry in their tractor trailers -- one of these two brings four tractor trailers. Faith Hill I think. Some of it was sound gear -- they completely constructed their own and bypassed the house system. Have to say they did it well.

Then there was Dwight Yoakam, who's a real asshole, abused his band the whole time. He's a little bald-headed runt, which is why he wears that goofy hat all the time. Meanest sumbitch ever on stage.

Chicago --- bunch of prima donnas who whined that we didn't have enough spotlights on them (there were at least six, if not eight)...

I think my favorite artist in that venue was Cowboy Junkies. They brought a single vehicle towing a horse trailer which had all they need -- a couple of chairs, a nice antique rug and the instruments. An act that was actually about the music rather than deception gizmos.

He would be on stage singing the praises of Sandy then go see "friends in low places" and it wasn't just Trisha. He and Sandy had issues with his infidelity. Lord knows if the dude had no notoriety he sure wouldn't have been sought by women. Money makes men a lot better looking
