Love/Hate

I have a love/hate relationship with country music.

I was raised on it. I learned to sing to it. I sang in country bands. I did Nashville Star.

But around the time Garth Brooks came out...it started to fizzle.

He ruined it.

After him came the parade of pop country.

Buh.

I prefer my country raw.

Hank

Johnny (even before the movie)

And AND my dream dream dream meet is Reba McEntire. I love that woman.

Now do not get me wrong, I do like some contemporary country....
