“Sure, it’s all just music, but there are really important, distinctive things about this particular genre and its traditions that deserve to be carried
forward. Sometimes those things get watered down by people who never really took the time to understand or care about them in the first place.”

Couldn’t agree more!

Is it just me, or is Dierks Bentley becoming a parody of the artist he used to be?

I’ll have more on that for you tomorrow… at The 9513. ;-)

I get the “it’s all just music” sentiment, but it’s also a pretty convenient (and profitable) argument for a not-especially-country artist experiencing success in the country format to have at his disposal.

I definitely agree with Charles Kelly, I hate it when people won’t give good music a chance just because of what genre it’s in. I love so many genres, but country music is still my favorite…

I think Rascal Flatts should be sponsored by Pepto-Bismol as they do tend to induce nausea in fans of real country music. Or how abour Depends since so much of what they put out is sonic excrement! Hmm….

I wonder if Taylor Swift’s in-ear monitors have automatic pitch correction and are fed from a Pro-Tools equipped PC run by a fleet fingered technician? That could explain a lot….

Is it just me, or is Dierks Bentley becoming a parody of the artist he used to be? Domestic bliss can have catastrophic effects on country singer songwriters who write their own songs, well except for soccer mom listeners.

Oh, I didn’t catch that. I think RedMaZ wins by default.
