Just What The Hell Is Country Music, Anyway?

This is for all non-EC or peripheral-EC topics. We all know how much we love talking about 'The Man' but sometimes we have other interests.

Chet Flippo is a good writer and I thought I'd pass this article along -

Well, Vez, thanks to Mr. Foyle the John we now know that Mr. Lindquist, "Star reporter" of the Indy Star thinks that country music is "just 70s and 80s classic rock with a cowboy hat put on top of it" and, again thanks to Foyle, we know that EC thinks that this statement just about says it all. Seems reasonable to me, particularly since we all can agree that there is no such thing as "90s classic rock and roll" and that's when country boomed.

Next question.

It's been a war verbal. In an effort to help El Vez, I actually got the shit kicked out of me.
