My BF and I are big Kenny fans, we go see him whenever he's anywhere near us. I haven't heard Poets and Pirates yet (he's hogging it still), but he said that there are a lot of sad ones on it. I'm telling you now, I tear up every time I hear "Don't Blink" on the radio. "And you're praying God takes you instead" gets me EVERY time. I don't know if I could take a whole CD of lines like that.

I love Country music!!!!!!!!! Can't say that I'm a big fan of Kenny, though. I liked his earlier stuff, most of his latest has been too slow, sappy, or "remember" this or that.
I do, however, love Martina, Trisha, Toby, Gretchen, Big and Rich, Loretta, and Patsy to name a few................

I was able to see Trisha in '95, went to a great show that was in remembrance of Patsy about the same time. Saw Toby in '06 and Martina this past summer. Trying to see if I can snag tickets for Brad Paisley.........Trace Atkins and Tyler Swift, they are coming soon! And sometime when the kids are older we plan on going to WeFest

depends on which country...

if it's the US, then my answer is NO.

I like Kenny too. I'm also a big fan of Brooks & Dunn, George, Toby, Trace, Blake Sheldon, Pat Green, and Miranda Lambert. These days, though, I'm listening to more Sugarland. I saw them in concert with Brooks & Dunn and they were fabulous. Brad Paisley doesn't do anything for me. His songs are a little too cute for me. For some reason the word "prepackaged" comes to mind!

I'm a big music fan in general...I love most genres. But I admit, country is my favorite.

Love country music!

Yep - big country fan here! Waiting patiently for the new Rascal Flats CD (comes out on Tuesday!)

I like old country like Hank Williams and Patsy Cline. I won't even listen to the new stuff. I'm really into bluegrass, though.

BTW, did you know the other day was "Talk Like a Pirate Day"?

charolastra00 · 09-21-2007, 02:27 PM

I thought this was a talk like a pirate day thread too :P

Not a huge fan of country, but growing up in Georgia and especially being active in 4H, I got a lot thrust upon me. Older stuff I like- Johnny Cash, Patsy Cline, Dolly Parton even. And I must say that my heart swells with pride every time I hear Chattahoochee by Alan Jackson because I grew up on the Chattahoochee. The Dixie Chicks and Willie Nelson are personal heroes of mine as well, even if I don't enjoy their music as much as other genres.

I completely agree. I like old stuff like Johnny Cash, bluegrass, etc. as well-but I don't like any of the newer country stuff. Any country I like has to be 1985 or earlier...

Without a doubt Hank Williams Sr was the greatest.
