""Maybe he is the voice for some of yall that are afraid to say what you think."
Do you really feel there is a shortage of conservative voices being heard on tv, radio, blogs, etc?"
Kenneth L Sibbett commented on Johnny Edlin's blog post 'CD Review - Hank Williams Jr. "Old School/New Rules"'
"I think he caught the wave along with Willie and Waylon of being outlaws somehow and did a couple of good albums. I can't remember the last good one, but his song "Major Moves" is as good as anyone can write."
Michael Helwig commented on Johnny Edlin's blog post 'CD Review - Hank Williams Jr. "Old School/New Rules"'
"well, let me see if I can justify this...I was a fan of Hank Jr, enough so to buy 11 of his albums...that said, I never thought his voice was all that great and I thought his style was just riding the coattails of W&W and the other innovative…"

"Fair enough. I was just taken aback a little by your characterization of Hank Jr. as a whole as being an "average talent." I'm only just recently familiar with a small part of his catalogue (some of…"

Music City Is Burning Down
When I heard the news that George Jones had died last friday morning, It was as if Mike Tyson had gut punched me. I have many fond memories of my mom and my old man listening to Possum. On the morning of Friday April 26, 2013, many of those memories came flooding back. Yes, I cried. Because George Jones died? Sure. (Let it be known, I also remember exactly where I was and what I was doing when I heard Waylon and Cash died.) Also, because of all those happy memories. I spent all of…

That's the first few lines from the song "Old School" on Hank Williams Jr. new album Old School/New Rules. In this track Hank sings about some fellow legends from Dolly to Jerry Lee Lewis. He expresses how proud he is to be from the Old…

Dallas Moore Band Live Review
Dallas Moore Band Live Review:
As soon as I heard it was confirmed, I knew I would be there and would write a review. April 2012, The Dallas Moore Band, in Bowling Green, Ky at the Spillway. It was a Thursday, Work was a conflict of schedule but I would Manage. Not to mention my poor girlfriend who had to deal with my drunk a** and drive me home (which ended up being 2am). I interviewed Dallas and hung out with the band. They all proved to be a group of home…
