Think Whitney and I are gonna go.  Thinking about taking an RV so I have somewhere to pass out.  Anyone else making the trip?

I realize that that's a huge deal to be in Auburn if you're into that kind of music.

I'm not.

Sure as shit am not $85 worth of into it.

Also, this kind of stuff is more what I associate the "other" university with.

For example:
Quote
You want to see and hear the hottest country stars and you don’t want to pay out-the-butt for it.
That’s why we bring the country stars to you, at a 2-day price around $80.00.*

You want to bring your own cooler in so you don’t have to drop a lot of dough on boos and waters. We’d feel the same way!! So that’s why we invite coolers in.
:doh:

Yea, the music part is not gonna really my bag, but I am all over excuses to sit out in the sun in Springtime and drink until I piss myself.

Damnit Howard, you didn't inform me it was country music...  Now I have to debate, drinking all day with shitty music... or not.

It's $85 to drink all day with shitty music. If it were free, I'd probably be in regardless. I'll just go to the Alpha Psi rodeo again instead.

The only way you could convince me to go to that was with a promise of banging Julianne Hough and Sara Evans at the same time -- provided Evans took a shower and washed all the bama cooties off her.

They started a deal down here (Enterprise) last summer called Bama Jam with a bunch of no names and some washed up bands.  I didn't go but I heard it was pretty well attended by the necks...meaning Brad was probably there.  They did have ZZ Top, which was the only band I was interested in just for old times sake.

This year, they're going to have Brooks & Dunn and of all peaople...Kid Rock.  I'm so not a country music fan but I would like to see B & D and I definitely want to see Kid Rock rip it up.

KR would definitely be worth it.  Saw him in Birmingham 4-5 years ago in a monsoon.  Best I can remember it was a hell of a show.


When should I expect my complimentary passes?

This is Brad's neck of the woods. I'm sure he's got some killer connections and there's no doubt some back stage passes would be part of the deal.  That's the way Brad rolls. 

Brad?

Kid Rock sucks balls.  He is the only artist I know that can take two good songs, and merge them into one super shitty song.

Looks like one helluva line-up. Trace Adkins kicks ass. I didn't realize that Shenandoah was back together. Diamond Rio has a lot of good songs. Craig Morgan has really put out the hits in the last few years. Almost Home is one of my favorites. Rodney Atkins has some good ones. Of course Gretchen Wilson will get down. And if Sara Evans brings her small ass, she will be a good act.

I could do without a few of the others like Jason Michael Carroll. But overall, I think you will get your money's worth.

You used "kicks ass" and "good songs" in reference to country music.  

At the very least that deserves time in the penalty box with the sound system cranking Tool's  "Schism"  the entire Ozzy and Metallica catalogs with some Van Halen, Led Zep and AC/DC interludes.

The only quality time I spent in Nashville was at a BYOB titty flop.  The rest of that town can choke on its bolo ties and faux accents.

Just so happens I'm from the same neck.  Missed BamaJam last year and will miss it again this year.  I'm gonna let them work out all the kinks before I attend one.  Rumor has it that it was quite "Woodstock-ish" last year, in terms of people, port-a-potties, and general debauchery.  Is that good or bad?  I don't know.

However, that guy Brad...he'll hook you up...he utilized his backstage pass last year to do lines off of Daryl Worley's lower abdomin.

He could have gone to his furniture store to do that in the back room for much less.

See. You named all the groups that were creative way back ( And I listen to all of them). There are very few NEW music acts that are creative today. The fact that country music usually tells a story, allows the artists to introduce creative ways to sing said songs. Some of it is the same ole, same ole. But more creative songs are coming out of country music than any other genre today.

That is completely subjective and impossible to prove.

New country music is mostly Top 40's pop with a uniformly awful accent.

I'm in as long as we're not going to:

1) Watch a "new" country music concert/festival/musical performance of any kind;
2) Refrain in any way from inflicting our usual brand of damage on that town; and
3) Going to skip the titty flops.

I could not disagree with you more.

Country is the one genre that has gone to complete shit over the last 30 years.

Rap's working on it at a much more rapid pace of the last 10 years, but there are still a few decent acts out there.

As far as country released this century goes, Hank III, Avett Brothers, Drag The River, Shooter Jennings, and Old Crow Medicine Show are pretty much the only acts worth half a shit.

Well you are gonna hear some of it but it will be closer to Molly Hatchet rather than Merle Haggard.

2) Refrain in any way from inflicting our usual brand of damage on that town; and
  As if I would refrain no matter where it is

3) Going to skip the titty flops.
Now you are just hurting my feelings with the lack of faith
