Default Country music

We grazed by this on another thread but these days there really does
not seem to be much old time country music. It has evolved into pop
singers like Carrie Underwood and Taylor Swift. There are a lot of
guys doing things in the vein of the Eagles and other soft rockers
from the 70s and 80s. Then you have guys like Colt Ford who have a hip
hop sound, rapping songs about waving the flag and celebrating rural
living instead of killing cops and abusing women like the original
rappers.
We saw Colt Ford this evening at a free open air concert in Bonita
along with a couple local bands and a "Voice" runner up (Rae Lynn).
The interesting thing is all of my old 60s Motown dance moves still
work with his music. The beat seems to be very similar.
One thing about country is there does seem to be a lot of music in
their music. It has changed from the old "twang and trains and hill
billy thing" (Trace Adkins line).

We went to see these guys last night. They probably have a lot more of the 'twang and
trains and hill billy thing'. This group is 'Circa Blue'. Lots of fun.

They're putting on the 'Circa Blue Fest' in Martinsburg, WV, in early May. It'll be
'rough' camping - no water, electric, or sewage, but should be lots of fun.

Wow. Songs about waving the flag and rural living...just wow. I don't
listen to rap, either.


And you claim to be well rounded? You probably meant it
literally, not figuratively.


If his figure is well rounded, doesn't that make it both?

Steven Tyler of Aerosmith said it best. "Country music is the new rock and roll".

Don't know. I defer to the English majorettes to give a ruling on
that one.

And you don't partake in waving the flag or rural living, right?

Nope. It's semi-rural around here, of course, but not the real rural
boonbocks. And no, I'm not one of those racists who waves the flag and
hates many of the ethnic or racial groups that live in this country.

Well the Bakersfield sound group has pretty much died off.

Only racists wave the flag? Gosh, I didn't know I had so many racist neighbors.

Or are you trying to subtly tell us you are one of those racists who *doesn't* wave
the flag. Yup, I reckon that's it.
