The Slide of a Steel Guitar, the Hair on a Fiddle Bow....the Twang of a Queen....



Country Muisc....yes, that is the subject of tonight's blog. Now, anyone who's met me, even for just 10 minutes, can gather that I am one of the biggest country fans you will meet. Lots of people say "I listen to just about every genre of music...except country." Most people who say this can't even come up with a good reason...they say it because they can make fun of it. For those of you who say this...I say bah humbug. The interesting thing is that those eclectic music lovers forget that country is a combination of almost every major type of music...rock, bluegrass, blues, R&B. Country music is music for the ordinary person. It deals with everyday love, life, good times, and friends. Now, I don't deny that there are the songs out there are annoying or extremely simple. I've had the pleasure of attending many concerts, and have met three major stars. They've created some of the best memories of my time because it bonds people together. Common music for the common person brings out a common bond between people...that is country music.

I also want to comment on the country news making headlines

I want to leave you with a couple pictures from those concerts that I've been able to attend...
