Snark, thanks for the great laugh.

I consider myself to be a country music fan...kinda. Country music is sometimes a really great genre in my opinion, and "pop country" produced some occasionaly very enjoyable music at one point. The stuff they play on the radio of late is neither country nor music. They referenced Florida Georgia Line on that article you linked to MolsonExport...that group is pretty much the definition of mediocre, and if you've heard either of their songs (I'm pretty sure they're a two-hit wonder now), it's baffling to understand that they are somehow technically a more popular "country" act than Hank Williams or George Jones ever was.

I'm not sure why any radio market would need more than one station playing Jason Aldeen sort-of-rapping about getting drunk in his truck along with whatever new girl they think sounds like Taylor Swift. Too bad about the Hawk.
