Actually, there are some fun country tunes that I really like and which are pretty much Nashville formula. Cuts like "Chattahoochee" and "Beer for My Horses." I rather like Toby Keith's stuff, including "How Do You Like Me Now" and "As Good As I Once Was."
I just have less patience with some of the older style tunes that I spun when breaking into the DJ biz.
Dave and I have agreed to differ on country music in the past, and I appreciate his thoughtful responses.
And PBG: thanks for the autobio note! It's an interesting chapter in your life.
