Ignorant Yankee / country music (update Page 13)

[AllChookUp]

What, you're so used to clothes fallin' all over the place in your regular life that you didn't notice it at the bar??????

No, I was not paying attention to much of anything. Tired from traveling, etc. I finished my drink quick and got out of there. I've been in a total of 2 strip clubs in my life. I get the same greasy grimy feeling as when I happen to see the Jerry Springer Show on TV.

And rileysgranny - I agree Keith Urban is not country. I think that Rascall Flatts epitomizes everything that is wrong with country music these days. Of the current crop, I like Little Big Town, George Strait, Alan Jackson, some Toby Kieth. Gimme Hank Sr. and Patsy any day...​

Sob, you lost me a "y'all".... I am devastated that I couldn't even spell it right. Perhaps I should just give up and move all the way north to Canada and be done with it.



My underpaid, overwrought research assistant came up with a blurb that said a two-step was four beats, with the first two being slow and the last two being double speed. Like ooone, ttttwooooo, onetwo, onetwo. So on my drive home last night, I tuned in to the only country station north of Virginia (it's out of Providence) and there's this really nice guy song with a "chorus" of "goodbye my old friend". Seemed like a tribute to a friend who had passed on... Anyway, the beats seemed like it would be a two-step, and I could envision the twirling. It had a quiet driving beat like Bruce Springsteen's "I'm on Fire".

So the first thing I thought was, somebody at BYC is going to know about this! Now I've got to find out who the artist was and if it's on YouTube. Back later.

Tim McGraw "My Old Friend"

Mmmmm... I do love me a dancing man in cowboy boots. Sigh...

When I was in school we used to go out two-steppin' at a little local hole in the wall, honky tonk kind of place. There was a local band of what seemed to my little larval self really old men. They just played and played all night. We would take a herd of boys and girls and dance until we were exhausted. One of my girlfriends inported a boy from Texas one week and we all fell in love. He sashayed her all around that dance floor, spinning and twirling. And he did all this cool as a cucumber in his scuffed up boots and white cowboy hat. I think I'm still a little bit in love with that boy. Sigh...​

Gosh I have missed a cool post!

I like Keith Urban personally, George Strait is the best, grew having to listen to Charlie Pride, Waylon Jennings, George Jones, Conway Twitty, Tammy Wynette

(that d-i-v-o-r-c-e songs makes me want to barf!) The Red headed Stranger, know there are more.

I have seen Alabama, Keith Whtiley, Earl Thomas Conley, Richocette, Garth Brooks (sorry don't like him anymore, to full of himself) There are a couple others, can't think of them either.

Toby Keith looks like my ex husband and he has the same kind of attitude, so I don't like him anymore

Always had to watch hee haw, even had some hee haw overalls !

And I say yall
