Couldn't stop after just the Good luck, could ya?
Meow.
If any of you get Sirius satellite radio -- It's all recorded I'm sure, since he's on his tour in the ME now. Playing the new songs now and then, plus some of his older stuff.
TOBY KEITH TO BE A DJ ALL DAY ON RELEASE DATE, MAY 17
"Toby Radio" on SIRIUS will also feature tracks from his brand new album, Honkytonk University
Toby Keith will exchange his cowboy hat for a set of headphones when he becomes a DJ on SIRIUS Satellite Radio all day Tuesday, May 17th.
From 6am to 12 midnight ET, Toby Keith will be the sole host of SIRIUS commercial-free country music channel 31, New Country. During that time, he'll play whatever music he wants. He will also play a song an hour from his new album being released that day on DreamWorks, Honkytonk University.
"The greatest way to create attention for a new album is to find new formats to be creative in and obviously satellite radio has become a big player in the industry," said Keith. "For them to let me play some of my all-time favorite cuts is a great opportunity to show my personality for a whole entire day." (from CMT)
Another fine example of how Toby deftly defends himself with his own brand of grace. I remember when the Dixie Twits bruhaha boiled up and how Toby Keith just killed them with charm and a smile, while never going anywhere near over the top.
He doesn't shake up the industry as much as dominate it.
Just found this link again to the CMT page that lets you listen to all the songs on his new cd -- just click on the little red speaker to the right of each song:

"I had put out four or five albums without one A&R meeting. We put out what we wanted and it worked. So why would I have to change?" he says.
He's right the title track of this CD sucks.... Not remotely his better work.. first time I heard it, I asked my wife.. why the hell did they release that as their debut single for the new album? It sucks..... Guess I know now why.
Libs hate Toby Keith...which is why we LOVE him!
The reality of it is......Conservative Democrats is what much of the Republican party is these days.
They don't exist in the Democrat party. They actually see more logic in the GOP.
For many of them its a......"always been a democrat and don't want to have to change a title" thing.
The vote for a lot of republicans and move on.
Now I know some Okies who are not pleased with the guy Keith campaigned for in OK for Gov..........but I'm sure they move on.
He's the musical equivalent of Sean Hannity, which is probably why the two of them seem to get along so well.
I like Toby....
but the stuff coming out of Nashville these days.....aint country.
His new CD is more country than the rest of the stuff coming out of there combined.
I'll stick with Cory Morrow, Gary P Nunn, Brian Burns, Max Stallings, Ed Burleson.....George Straight will do.
And...oh yeah...Asleep at the Wheel. I will see them live at West Fest this summer.
Ping!
I like a lot of his patriotic songs but why on earth is he a Democrat?
