THIS IS THE THREAD FOR THOSE AMONGST US THAT MAY, IN FACT, BE COUNTRY AS HELL.

Rednecks

Bumpkins.

Whatever you call us, we remain the salt of the earth, the backbone of America and the soul of its people.

Rednecks enjoy country music!

Now, to understand "hillbillies", you have to understand that most of the south was populated with poor-ass Scotch/Irish immigrants who really had nowhere else to go, so the went into the hills and started growing rad beards.

Fellow country boys and girls, let us gather round and ruminate upon our roots.

    Can I be half country?
    My mom grew up in the middle of nowhere, Indiana, and got out only to be called the "token hillbilly" by her advertising coworkers in New York.

    I think they were in error, and she was, in fact, the token redneck. There are no hills in Indiana. Discuss.

    Anyhow, I love old-school country music, and don't like my fellow latte-sippin' coastal elitists to pick on country folks.

    Garth Brooks is awesome, but he's also the epitome of modern Pop-Country, which aside from a few common instruments isn't very much like classic country at all.

    Garth Brooks has some good stuff and some bad stuff. Even if he did start the avalanche of pop country, I will still sing along with Rodeo any old time I hear it.

    Pop country I don't get.

    Classic country (of the Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, Patsy Cline variety) is basic American music, like the blues.

    Anything with a banjo or fingerpicking makes me happy beyond belief, because I'm a depraved folkie like that.

    Well I haven't tried them since I was about 10 years old. Maybe I'd like them now. I went to a crawfish boil/family reunion when I was maybe 3 or 4, and the crawfish looked really scary at the time. I thought they'd just resurrect and slice me up with their claws or something, I dunno. Maybe my dislike of crawfish stems from that.

    I've been on a Patsy Cline and Hank Williams kick recently. Also Johnny Rivers, but that is neither here nor there.

    I still like quite a few new guys. Eric Church, Gary Allan, Dierks Bentley. Hell, I even like Taylor Swift.

    However, I'll always return to my one true love.

    Oh man you should go to one now. Drink a lot and get ready for your lips to burn for a day or two.

    They're the main reason I get so excited for spring time.
