I am surrounded by country music. I live in a small town in Ohio. So its filled with country music. I guess I am not liking how its basically turning into rock. Any more I am finding it to be rock music with a country twain.

Go ahead, laugh it up: Johnny Cash, brilliant guy. Now that is country I can tolerate.
Your mentioning of Johnny Cash reminded me of the journal of one of our members, Flower Child, because she reviews a Johnny Cash song there, as well as a bunch of old songs I'd never heard before. You might find her thread interesting: http://www.musicbanter.com/members-j...tml#post648265

I didn't know Ohio was a hotbed of country music! Maybe small towns in Iowa are the same. I don't care for a country twang in music when I think the twang is intentionally inserted, and the musicians' garb is intentionally countrified--fringe, cowboy hat, boots --as some sort of statement about unity with a culture I never found particularly admirable to begin with.

I don't mind the costumes of the Village People, though! But maybe that's because the group is kind of like anti-matter to country's matter.
