The Poojer

Hey Buftex, you are spot on. I do a bit of an internal mindgame on myself a lot of times. I love bands like DBT, Jason Isbel, etc. They could easily fall into a country music category. I 'force' myself to call it roots rock alt-country. Avetts, Trampled by Turtles, I call bluegrass, alt-folk. Wilco is Americana. I think those bands and the dead are steeped in musical styles that some consider country. I've just always(even going back to as a young un) disliked country music. Too me country music is about your dog, your truck, drinking whiskey & beer, the flag, and your wife leaving. I know that's an unfair categorization. Then you get what's marketed to the public and it just reinforces my 'disdain'. Trust me I struggle with being a Jason isbell fan. Its just how my crazy mind works.

But that's the problem...the 'fans' aren't putting in the effort to find them. They are lapping up the dreck from Luke Byran... Florida Georgia line etc...country fans should be swarming to bands like avett, kopecky family, etc...the stuff that is great musicianship...great songs....thankfully zac brown is being appreciated by this crowd. Popular country music is all style over substance.

I have zero place in my musical taste for country music and Tom Petty says, in this article, something that I have been saying for years and getting blasted by friends and family for saying....although I have been saying it's 'pop/rock music that couldn't make it in pop/rock'. Not that what Tom Petty says is the end all be all, it's nice to hear someone in the business saying something that I have been saying..... http://www.billboard.com/biz/articles/country/5719212/zac-brown-kacey-musgraves-on-confronting-country-musics-image-problem

i didn't get an ad....boobies...hahahahahahaha

i also took it as a blanket statement about all guys commenting about how she looks or is dressed, if i misinterpreted her intention i am glad

your reply made me think of this http://youtu.be/1y3ZnZc-NdI

that was awesome...thanks for posting this. i missed it the first time around

i love how ej admits he didn't see the corner on that pick...no excuses...simple says he didn't see him...good stuff

for the second week in a row, he will be a starting WR on my fantasy team...what more do you want???

nice....coppin' a cheap feel in the name of being tazed

Yeah, I don't think this is really Sesame Street kind of stuff I was walkin' down the street on a sunny day Hubba hubba hubba hubba hubba Feelin' in my bones that I'll have my way Hubba hubba hubba hubba hubba Chorus: Well, I'm a happy boy (happy boy) Well, I'm a happy boy (happy boy) Oh, ain't it good when things are goin' your way? Hey hey My little dog, Spot got hit by a car Hubba hubba hubba hubba hubba Put his guts in a box and put him in a drawer Hubba hubba hubba hubba hubba (Chorus) I forgot all about it for a month and a half Hubba hubba hubba hubba hubba I looked in the drawer and started to laugh Hubba hubba hubba hubba hubba (Chorus)

oh please...there is nothing 'gay' about anything The Beat Farmers ever did.

yeah that gave me a moment of head scratching...simple compliments, at least from me, are not going to lead to a physical assault against her. I don't want to say that women or men are simply dressing to impress, many dress up or down(in my case) because it makes us feel better...but for the most part you are putting your best face forward so people notice and appreciate the effort you put forth, they aren't looking for a mate or a hook-up, simply to be noticed and appreciated. Compliments are not inappropriate as long as they are done with tact, I think. And to Chef..Gladiator sandals make me a very....

Lucinda Williams & enter the haggis are both awesome!

didn't even know you were expecting.....

i find it no small coincidence that my surname is used throughout the article.... http://www.npr.org/b...eer-in-your-gut

he really knocked it out of the park on this new album http://teamcoco.com/video/jason-isbell-09-16-13

yeah, that's exactly what we mean

but i think it is on track, we are talking about those who have taken the torch from Jimi, SRV definitely, John Mayer also has it but just doesn't always display it...look at pearl jams yellow ledbetter, there's more Hendrix influence, someone mentioned Prince...I guess we kind of do know what Jimi would be like today...his music has manifested itself in these and so many others. Personally I think Jimi would have 'disappeared' in the blues joints of chicago and mississippi and just played whatever the f*** he felt like playing. because it is someone we lost way to early and we missed out(potentially) on years of more great music, books, television, movies, scientific discoveries etc...just a way to commemorate the passing of someone that brought something that some of us value or enjoyed or both...not really that difficult to figure out.

I'm with you...get past John Mayer's poppy 'radio friendly' stuff and he is one of the better ones out there.

can you imagine what kind of music he would have made had he lived??? Guess we will just have to settle with what he left us to enjoy http://youtu.be/1_3pwu7RmOQ

what tombstones??? i don't remember that
