The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!

Posted on 12/17/2002 7:32:02 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Journey to the Cross-roads

The Two Towers Edition

Come on! Come in! -if you would like to have some seedcakes and a pint and relax a while. (If it is a special occasion, we still have a few bottles of the old wineyards left!)

Our first thread ( New Zealander builds Hobbit hole ) reached 4,100 posts, and we thought that was big. Our second thread (The New Hobbit Hole ) held us for over 48,000 posts, and we loved it dearly. We talked about moving to a new thread for the last 38,000 posts, but we are really slow to muster! Finally, the time has come. Tomorrow (at 12:01 am, to be precise!) The Two Towers comes out, and we start a new chapter.

Not a Hank Jr. fan...sorry! Prefer the original...

I like Sr. and Jr. but I don't care much for III.

I think he does some good songs, but he seems to be trying (and failing) to sound jus' like Hank Sr. Needs to develop his own sound more.

But he's young...maybe he'll improve over time.

I hate to say this. Because it hits too close to home. I'll say it the less disgusting way. maturity. yeah, that's it. it's not age. it's maturity.

Umm...I was kinda thinkin' that. ;-)

I don't like the crashing drums in IIIs music, what little I've heard.

I like more of an acoustic / Texas swing kinda feel to stuff. Not too many modern country stars have a sound I like.

I like this guy: http://www.brianburnsmusic.com/ But, he's kind of local. Myranda found him and turned me on to him. He's played on local stations down home but nobody plays his stuff up here in north Texas.

I like some of Jr's song. All of Daddy's.

My favorite jr -- Whiskey Bent and Hell Bound. The song where he first found his own self IMO.

Who is that?

That, my friend, is the dreaded DOUG, of Trading Spaces fame.

If there is something someone doesn't want touched in their house, he obliterates it.

If there is a color scheme people do not want used, he uses it.

He's basically any home-owning female's worst nightmare.

I just had to pop in real quick and post a pic of my favorite country singer!

His voice sends shivers down my spine! I got to see him live once and was dancing like a fool right in front of the stage. He actually looked down and laughed at me and my MIL getting down to "Digging Up Bones".
