I love country music - country and bluegrass is about all I listen to (with a little John Denver mixed in). Bluegrass - my favorite current band is Mountain Heart ... like Rhonda Vincent as well. Country - love the classics like Waylon/Willie/the boys, etc. But, I'm also a big fan of Kenny Chesney and Brad Paisely...the new country movement doesn't bother me at all. Of course, I also don't hate the Dixie Chicks...which makes me different than a lot of other country fans. I don't blame the Dixie Chicks for leaving country music...but I hate that they had to...I liked their country stuff

I remember my dad playing "Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes" (or at least that was a line in it..not sure what the actual name is) when I was younger....didn't listen to music much back then..but that's a nostagic song to say the least.

I can deal with Brad Paisley okay, but most everything on the radio these days is trash...The non-stop Tim, Faith, Montgomery Gentry, Keith Urban stuff doesnt work for me...

Going to see George Strait and Ronnie Milsap tonight, really looking forward to it, but i really don't care for much music that has been put out in the past 10-12 years or so...So i generally listen to country from that time all the way back to the 30's, i like it all, and for newer music it's the Texas Country like Cooder Graw and Cory Morrow.

I saw George Strait and Millsap earlier when they were in Knoxville. Great show.

I like Brad Paisley but there are very few others today I like. I do however love Hank Sr and Jr, George Strait, Johnny Cash, David Allan Coe, Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson and Charlie Daniels.

Rascal Flatts sucks a$$ in my opinion.

I like the new "Americana" genre -- more singer/songwriter country sound, less "Nashville." I do like Nickel Creek and Alison Krausse -- a little more bluegrass-oriented, I guess. Mainstream Country is just kind of at a standstill, IMO. Most of the stuff out now could have been released 10 years ago and would still fit right in. I just really like to hear people expanding the horizon, I guess.

Oh, and Faith over Carrie, ANYDAY. . . .ANYTIME.

Awesome concert tonight, Ronnie is great, and George is, well, George. The best live shows i've ever seen were Chris Ledoux (several times) and Willie Nelson (ditto)...but this one was up there

I don't know if I've seen Alan Jackson's name yet.

Hank Williams Sr.
Dwight Yokam
Wiskeytown
Sawyer Brown
Nashville Skyline

Dumas Walker always makes me smile. And I oddly like that song "Some Beach." But it's a damn Mustang in the video, and that bothers me.
