Hank III is no C/W performer.
Well, 'Are you ready for some fiesta', doesn't have the right ring to it.
Me Too
No
Who gives a shit if Hank III uses profanity? And if people want to "slam dance", then let 'em.
Yes - good on ya
Yeah, he is. His C/W music is more traditional than his dad's. More in the Hank Sr. vein. He does have a hardcore band called Assjack, however, that remains unsigned.
You think Larry the Cable Guy and Ron White are over the top?!?!? I'll take them any day over that commie, hate whitey Cosby
Huh? wtf you talking about? Bill Cosby? Please expand your comment. Thanks
This is my idea of country music:
Five Dollar Bill
CHORUS:
I wrote my new song on a five dollar bill
But I won't be able to sing it until
I get hot on the trail for to pick up the track
Of the dirty little thief and get my five bucks back
I first got the five dollars from a Montana man
When he come across the line with a pistol in his hand
He said gimme all your money but I got to his first
And I took his Colts too and the whole first verse
You see you couldn't buy liquor in the States back then
So we saddled up the ponies and we loaded up the gin
Rode underneath the shadow of the grande Old Chief
To git some northern Rocky Mountain kinda tax relief
You couldn't count on the cattle when the market got down
And the veterinary bills to the doctor in town
Both kids needed shoes and they had to get fed
And a big old bank lien was over my head
CHORUS
They wouldn't stop talking about Canadian rye
Bouquet and the palate and it's crisp and it's dry
In a Seagrams bottle, tasted mighty top shelf
I said "well, thank you very much, sir, I cooked it myself"
Of course, that didn't wash with the boys down south
Judging by the stream of color coming out of their mouth
Though I can't figure why, cuz from where I stood
It got 'em just as damn drunk as any store bought would
CHORUS
Well, he come stormin' cross the border with six or eight guys
Some damn fool saw fit to deputize
But there weren't no sheriff nor a marshall in sight
I guess the lawman was up drinkin' whiskey all night
He said gimme all your money but I got to his first
And I took his Colts too and the whole third verse
But he picked my back pocket; worked the five bucks loose
I had tucked in behind a can a Copenhagen snoose
CHORUS
The dirty little double dealing, son-of-a-gun-of-a song stealin', chicken eatin' thief
And get my five bucks back
He has spoken out quite eloquently about the self-destruction in the black community.
Sweet! I never hear that before. Who sang that?
Cosby still associates with Sharpton and Jackson all the time. He appears with them and makes speeches with them. He has not disassociated from them, nor them from him at all.
I'm sorry, that's the Corb Lund band. They are from Alberta and they sing about cowboys and oil and horses. Real western music.
And he's a good picker as well. Check 'em out!
They're one of the handful of current country bands I enjoy. I prefer ole-timey stuff, bluegrass and Hank Williams Sr. -- "front porch" music.
Ron White has a new book out now. I hear it's quite funny, but I havent gotten my hands on it yet.
Larry is very funny, as are Foxworthy and Bill Engvall. Ron White has an attitude like I'd like to be able to turn off and on at will.
He's got a lot of talent.
They are more fun than watching midgets run track.8-)
Larry the Cable Guy is the funniest comedian out there, and an outspoken conservative. He said once during an appearance on Hannity and Colmes, "Im so conservative, I think O'Reilley is a commie". Just read his book, it is very funny. And Ron White? What can be said? He is just a full-out PISSER! Hysterical!
