We're a little bit Country

This may not have happened if we hadn't moved to Texas....but my girls have fallen in love with Country music.  Tonight the only show that could be watched was this one.  A guy on my HS basketball team used to listen to Alabama..that's about as close as it got for me until the last couple of years.

Doug, has done a lot to influence my family musically...from classic rock, country and rocked out praise and worship...our family has turned eclectic in it's musical tastes...and a little bit country.  Don't tell anyone but we've actually used a few Country tunes at Springcreek.

In my opinion Country Music really isn't all that Country anymore...have you noticed?

Speaking of notice, here are somethings that caught my eye tonight....

• Brad Paisley's Angel wing T-Shirt, where can I get one?
• Dallas Quarterback, Tony Romo sitting with, hugging and then kissing Carrie Underwood as she went on stage to accept her award...I don't think Faith Hill was the only one saying "What?" this time.
• Ronnie Dunn's hair or was that Kenny Loggins hair on Ronnie Dunn?
• Rascal Flatts' crazy shirts-they get the award this year.

That's all I have tonight, gotta park the truck, put the horse in the shed put my boots on the porch and hang my crumpled up Cowboy hat on the bed post....

Later ya'll.....

Hicks

We called it at our house, Taylor Hicks-American Idol.  Most of us are happy about how the contest turned out except for my oldest daughter....she's a Kat fan because she's pretty and sings good.  Taylor is not necessarily man candy but we like him because.....   

• He's like able
• We all have an uncle/dad or cousin who dances like he does
• He's goofy
• There is something about him that makes us smile

Idol is impressive as a cultural phenomenon, it's commercial success unbelievable....it engages because it draws you in and whether or not you call you feel like your opinion matters, your voice counts.

I was impressed with the show, at least the amount I watched.  Meatloaf...Prince....The Brokenote Cowboys....all was well...I just could have done without the shot of David Hasselhoff crying at the end....sheeesh!
