I love some of the dudes quotes:whatwouldcooleydo? wrote:No
"Not that I profess any technical knowledge of music. I wouldn’t know adagio from fettuccine, and I sometimes forget that the mandolin is not a tropical fruit. "
"Miranda Lambert is the greatest country music artist of all time. Put me on a polygraph; waterboard me; lock me in a biker bar with Toby Keith and his meanest buddies. I couldn’t say otherwise if my life depended on it."
"Lambert has earned more awards from the Academy of Country Music than anyone, ever. Six of her albums have sold more than a million copies."
Okay, you know nothing of music, you are too dumb to admit you're wrong even if it meant physical harm, and sales = quality. All righty then.
Now it's dark.

Re: Is Miranda Lambert the Country Artist GOAT?
When I was 18, I got kicked off the volunteer team at a local music festival for upsetting Miranda's dad by spending a little too much time on her bus... and for reeking of weed and cheap booze, probably
The same night I got my weed confiscated by the 5-0 and nearly got my ass kicked by trying to get Montgomery Gentry to autograph my chest
Pretty sure I ended up with alcohol poisoning from a mix of Homebrew and green apple Boone's Farm.
I love Mrs.Lambert and she's one of the absolute best mainstream contemporary country stars, may be the best in the modern day, but the heyday of c&w is long gone.

Hey, if I didn't post this we never would have gotten that dazzling Smitty post.cortez the killer wrote:C'mon, bubba. Be better.
FWIW, I posted it because I was curious whether I missed something (my reaction being more along the no-hell no-fuck no range). I consider myself a dabbler in country music while this guy proclaims himself a master of the country universe so I wondered whether there might be some gathering consensus about Ms. Lambert of which I am not aware. Turns out, not so much.

Sure, he's a Ford truck man, that's all he drives, he ain't got no boundaries, he don't compromise, but a tough guy?

Ha! I thought this meant that even if you tortured him w/ awful music in a locked room he wouldn't change his mind.Flea wrote:lock me in a biker bar with Toby Keith and his meanest buddies. I couldn’t say otherwise if my life depended on it."
I gather from others' comments that he was being more literal than that, which, as others have noted, is really unfortunate.

Alcohol poisoning, cannibalism, Toby Keith slams, a Kevin Bacon reference, and goat-fucking.

Guess who attended service and spoke at the after-service dinner last week at my cousin's church? The same cousin who officiated over my wedding and pretty much every funeral I've ever been to? Shitty former country music "star" Mark Wills? Well yeah he was there as well, but actually none other than the underage-goatfucker himself, Roy Moore.John A Arkansawyer wrote:I beg your pardon!

All of that makes this thread worth it. Chapman's opinion on country music? Not so much.scotto wrote:Alcohol poisoning, cannibalism, Toby Keith slams, a Kevin Bacon reference, and goat-fucking.

I know Chapman, by the way. He's been a political beat writer in Chicago since the early eighties and I was pretty involved in Democratic politics in the mid to late eighties. When I worked on Senator Paul Simon's campaign he would have pizzas delivered to us hoping to get some of us to feed him info he wasn't getting through normal channels. Senator Simon had standing orders that when they would arrive we would only accept them if the office paid for them, and by office I mean out of his own pocket. Once he had donuts dropped off with no bill and the Senator had us go down to Michigan Avenue and distribute them to the homeless.
We call him Scooby Do, but Scooby doesn’t do. Scooby, is not involved
