Country music in NYC? How blasphemous. Check out stations on the net. My favorite is out of Huntsville, Texas. Goes by the name of K Star, 99.7 Another good one is WSM out of Nashville. My heart goes out to you. Spent 4 years in NJ. Being from Southeast Texas, I felt like I was on another planet. Best of luck you you.
“When you leave Amarillo, turn out the lights”
Classic.
The same big names and up and coming songs get syndicated country-wide, from Maine to California, from Washington to Florida.
My sister is a Walmart checkout clerk. Is there something wrong with that?
True. But believe it or not I was born and raised here and still live here. Got into Country Music about 7 years ago while channel surfing and came across CMT. Aside from sounding good, the songs and videos were very patriotic and wholesome. Been in love with it ever since. Still listen to rock though.
Yeah, I get teased at work about it. I have a 10 gal. cowboy hat but can’t where it here. I could hear it now, “Yo what’s wit da hat? Are ‘youse’ a cowboy or someting? Hey, I gotcha lasso right here!”
1988 was my last year in New Jersey, lived ther for 33 years. Had the car radio set to a local country station just to piss off the yuppies. Then in September 1988 I emigrated to Houston, and never returned to that awful place. Of course now I’m stuck in Minnesota, and after nearly eight years here, my tag line (to paraphrase Davy Crockett):
I knew a woman who worked as a Walmart checkout person for years.
When she retired and cashed in her stock she was well set up financially. She had been witht WM from sixties.
I knew several people who turned down a chance to buy WM stock back in the 1960s. They still moan about the lost chance.
How can you love freedom too much?
LAZARUS LONG
If yes, I will send it to FR, send a donation to FR with
address.
“the freedom to inbreed is perhaps best suppressed.”
Yes, we’ve seen what has happened in England and is happening in America’s cities.

“My sister is a Walmart checkout clerk. Is there something wrong with that?”
“Hey I’m not complaining ‘cause I really need the work
Hitting up my buddy’s got me feeling like a jerk
Hundred dollar car note, two hundred rent.
I get a check on Friday, but it’s all ready spent.”
She’s part of the solution, not the problem. Too many Chicagoite’s in this country for my liking.
City people in a cage...we call 'em RATs.
du Lac is unbelievably pretentious, and has a very narrow range of taste. I am certain that he is an Obamite (otherwise, why would he be at the Post) and any music that celebrates America is bound to be anathema to him.
LOL So true.
Amen!!!!!!
Josh Freedom du Lac, Pop Music Critic for The Washington Post (formerly at the Sacramento Bee)
as a music critic in the nation's capital, he is often at the confluence of national politics and pop culture, for example when famed investigative journalist Carl Bernstein asked du Lac to watch his son's rock band perform.
