It also shows you how far Country Music has come that these people want to be on the show.
As for the Dixie Chicks, give them their shot at redemption and see if they do their mea culpas. Otherwise, buy-bye.
Basically, it was an extended bathroom break.
Modern Country Music is mostly pop/rock dime store cowboy crap sung with a fake ass twang by prius-driving metrosexuals. Give me the old country music any day of the week.
