Country Music fans???

[lynnestankard]

YES - me too!! I adore Country Music. Yep even the 'old' stuff!!

We don't get many artists coming over here to tour - apart from Shania who we saw in March - GREAT! They've even taken The Country Music channel off too - I really miss it so much.

I adore so many singers that you've all mentioned - also Hal Ketchum (notice any similarity between a certain cats name?! ), Bonnie Rait (yes I know she's not traditional country - but I adore her voice!), John Michael Montgomery, Clint Black but more than anyone - GARTH - we never got to see him in concert - I just wish he'd record again! My favourite song is 'The Dance' reduces me to tears every single time I hear it!

When we were in Vegas we found a wonderful Country Station on the car radio - it was so cool driving along singing away like a couple of kids - there's nothing so good here.

I'm jealous of you all seeing so many Country starts in concert = grrrrrrrrrr!

I just came home from shopping and I had on my favorite country station, Philadelphia's WXTU, on the car radio. The last song I heard before getting out of the car keeps floating around in my head - - now you can have it float around in yours IT'S 5:00 SOMEWHERE! Love that song!

Me either! If the song bugs you, the video probably will too!

Yeah, the Video does too..

BTW: I keep the channel of CMT all day long everyday. Haha, when friends come over they say " I know what channel your tv's on." and I go " What?" and they roll their eyes and go " CMT or GAC" I like CMT much much more than GAC though

Haha, I'm listening to Garth Brooks right now. " The Dance" is my favourite song of his too. It brings tears to my eyes everytime I hear it as well

OK everyone!!!!! I am officially excited. I tried to get Alan Jackson and Martina McBride tickets the day they went on sale and even though they are playing 2 dates here I could NOT get a single ticket.......WELL!!!!! I got 2 tickets I am so excited. The concert is Thursday, September 9 at 7:30 at the Mohegan Sun Arena. The lower mezzanine seats 1&2...this way I can stand up and dance all night long!!!!!!!!!!11

The Arena is such a great place for the artists. Even though it is 10,000 seats there is not a bad seat in the house. I called my husband to ask if he would go with me and I could not beleive he said SURE!!!!!

Sorry....I'm just so happy!!!!!

I've always been a Rocker...and even at age 46 I have not grown out of my love of screamin guitars and long haired guys...BUT... I do have a few country songs or artists I appreciate. Keith Urban is just a honey! I love 'Raining on Sunday'. Alan Jackson and Tim McGraw, I like. and I have a soft spot for Randy Travis (brings back some nice memories I think). Faith Hill is good too! Country music is not my first or even second choice(that would be Blues, ie; Stevie Ray Vaughan) to listen to, but I do give thumbs up to some of the newer stuff that is out now.

He sings "What a Beautiful Day", "I Breathe In, I Breathe Out", "Laredo".. a few of the great tunes..

This is him.. he is a VERY awesome guy!!

Let me start by saying this. I used to think country music was OK. I liked some songs, but I was more into rock/pop. My brother Thomas is a hardcore country music fan, and when he went away to university last year, I missed him so much. I decided to start dedicating myself to country music. Now, I LOVE country music. But I also love more genres. For some odd reason, I really like Sarah Brightman. I'm not sure which genre her music would go into though. But back to the topic lol. I absolutely love country music, more of the newer stuff (past 5 years) but some of the older country songs too. Basically all the songs I hear I at least like, sometimes love. However, I still like my Evanescence, Linkin Park, Avril Lavigne, Simple Plan, Blink 182 etc.

What makes me so mad is that everyone around here assumes I like the "normal" rock music. There are basically only 3 music stations here. (they also have news in them and such)

2 are country, but one is rock. Alot of people here listen to the rock one, and most people don't know about the second country one. So its basically 2 stations that you go by here. What makes me mad is that whenever we're doing something, (riding a school bus) the driver will be listening to the country one, but when the kids come on, he changes it to the rock one (nice driver, I know, but I would rather listen to country) There are alot more examples but I just can't think of them.. hmmmm But it always happens! And at the high school in Yorkton, they have Much Music on the TV in the commons area. WELLL I guess alot of people like it, but its ALWAYS on that channel. Why don't they put it on a good country channel, like CMT???? Lol that just makes me always wonder and be mad
