The Germans were notorious for keeping count of the civilians they slaughtered. Do you think Obama will be too?

If you think Country music is dead, you are out of touch with reality....

When 2/3 of your new releases are ripoffs of songs from other genres...I'd say its dead. Either that or all country bands are cover bands...
If you don't surrender to the left's ideas there is no way to get along. Their idea of compromise is they get their way. The next civil war will be about color, red vs blue!!!

You know what they say about opinions...Yours and mine...Looking at all the newly built 60K sq foot home in and around Nashville, I would beg to differ...
On a different note, you near Door County? Lots of Family from the area and G-Bay...

At this point, and time I would not put anything past our Government...I have never had the level of miss trust that I do currently.

Trust OUR government? Not hardly! Biggest mass of dumba**'s I've ever seen.
I don't like rap or hip hop, but Country and Old Time Rock and Roll rules!:dance3:

If the POTUS and Liberal Senate keep pushing Gun Control or Safety (whatever they want to call it this week) they may just get it! I don't want to. I pray I don't have to! But if push comes to shove, I may have to!

Aside from the undeniable health of the country music industry as a standalone genre, he had it completely backwards to begin with. Every note, stanza, composition or song written in the rock 'n roll, pop, top-40, Southern rock and other genres have at least half of their roots firmly planted in country music. The other half of the root-ball of modern popular music, in America at least, comes from black gospel, jazz and blues influences. In other words, modern genres "ripped off" country artists, not the other way around.
Modern rock music could not have artists like Phish, Widespread Panic and a host of other jam-bands without the invention of the genre by The Allman Brothers Band, and the ABB could not have created that genre without the influences of Coltrane, Miles Davis, Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, Elmore James, Jimmie Rogers, The Carter Family, Hank Williams, Woody Guthrie and so many other lesser-known jazz, gospel, blues, country and folk artists that were all thrown together in a pot and stirred and stewed to create a whole new genre. That's how it works. All music comes from other music. There's not an original note to be had in music, only original ways of putting it together and combining instruments can create something new.
The lineage described above concerning the genre the Allmans created are repeated in every other modern genre of the 20th Century up through today.
Bottom line, in American music, there is really only one kind of people responsible for the unique original genres we are known for, and that's country folk. Whether it be the old black spirituals coming out of the cotton-fields during slavery that evolved into modern jazz, gospel and the blues, or the white farmers from all over the country who bowed cheap fiddles and strummed cat-gut-strung guitars and sang through their nasal passages instead of their diaphragms, all wholly American music is deeply-rooted in country/folk music.

Unfortunately, they are far from dumba**es. They know exactly what they are doing.
If you think Clinton was bad, with Waco, Vince Foster, the kids at Mena airport, etc,
you ain't seen nothing yet. :help:

You should see how many have written serial bad checks, been arrested for serial infractions of various traffic laws, non payment of multiple years of back taxes...and the list goes on and on.
These things won't get them into Mensa for sure.

Nope. Never been there. I'd like to do some fishing up there, but so far Superior has been pretty good and that's half the distance.

Not many people are aware of how close we came to civil war in January.
My wife doesn't understand why I've been sleeping with my 12 ga on my chest and my go bag and kevlar next to the bed. I've been doing it since mid December. I went to buy more supplies for a few extra trauma kits and all my neighbors were doing the same thing. I even managed to trade some tourniquets and scissors for a few extra MREs. Got a few tomahawks coming in the mail and I'm training a few guys from my dojo in UW and CQB. We all got the guns. Do you know what to do with them?
