So I took the gf to a Kenny Chesney concert in Jacksonville last night because she really likes country & especially "Kenny" blehhhhhhhhhh.....and wtf I liked it? I didn't really like much country prior to last night but for some reason I found the concert very good. It probably had to do with all the extra guitar and drum play you don't hear or hear as clear on the radio, so it was more like a rock concert. Sugarland played warmup and I find myself liking them too. I must say I was impressed, had a good time, and liked a lot of the songs. Although, considering like 35% of the crowd was drop dead gorgeous college girls from UF,UCF,FSU,UGA, and GT with cowgirl hat and boots on, so that had a lot to do with it. Man that's hot. Am I turning to the dark side or is country not as bad as I thought?

I think you just learned a lesson many music nits refuse to learn.

People hate country music - until they actually listen to it. Its not for everybody, but Kenny puts on some of the best, highest-energy shows I've seen (been to 2 of his arena shows and one summer festival with him). If you want to see something turn into a real rock concert with country music, take her to see Keith Urban and listen to his 8 minute guitar solos that you'll never hear on the radio.
