    I called it shite at the time. I'd take it on repeat over the country pop wasteland that exists today.

    I don't like a lot of "mainstream" country radio, but Jon Pardi is pretty good

    Sturgill’s new album is fantastic.

    He’s not strictly country but Koe Wetzel is pretty great when you need to roll the windows down and crank it

    Ticketmaster is being very vague and difficult as to my options, but I have 2 for Whiskey Myers at the Ryman Friday I'll give away if anyone can and wants to go.

    Of course they may not open them to transfer so don't take a day off for it.

    This post intrigued me so I gave it a listen. I don't care for Sturgill but this is pretty good.

    I think its come around to something like when the Texas guys crashed the party in the 70's for a decade or so.

    2 years ago I saw Reckless Kelly in JC on a Thursday with maybe 100 people in the place. Now we pay $45 and it's a sell out. Easy access to what isn't on the radio is making people see that country music doesn't suck, just what pushes radio plays sucks.

    Yeah the radio shit is about selling shirts and huge concerts. It’s safe and boring.

    But there’s some damn good music out there right now and might been one of the best periods in a long damn time
