I'm from the West. But I'm from the West of Europe (Portugal)
I like music a lot. I like Rock, Metal, Blues, Indie, Alternative, etc...
And for the surprise of my friends I like Country music.
And it's simple why: in country music it's hard to find bad musicians, so it's easy to get good music.
You all can say that Country music it's full of "clichés" and it's always the same issues in the lyrics but I ask you if it's different in other kind of music.
In country music it's easy to get the influences of the artist and these influences cover Blues, Rock, Alternative, Indie ,southern, etc...
It's not complicated to like country if you like good music. The hard thing is to explain some pre-conceptions ideas.
