Not knowing who Chris Young is makes me feel Old.

I was going to ask the same question. "Who is Chris Young?"

Same here. But my google machine tells me that he is a country music singer, so I don't feel as bad for not knowing him.

What's Country Music????

Is that Mr and Mrs Young's kid?

What's Country Music????

I actually like a lot of the old country music like Hank Williams, Merle Haggard, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson and the like.

I can't stand most of the schlock that passes for country now, though; but I do like Kacey Musgraves, Margo Price and a few others.

I'm with you @8893 I'm pretty much a rock n roller but I'm cool with some country. Zach Brown and Eric Church pass muster. I like the old stuff also. Any live shows for you lately? I'm going down to Wrigley to listen to the Dead tomorrow night. I say listen because my friend has a house behind the left field wall so we listen from her porch or bring chairs to the left field wall. Good times and a bunch of money stays in my pocket.

Likely translation: @QDOG5 prospective or current girlfriend, spouse, etc likes the now identified Chris Young. Same same for @crazyfan23 ?

Sadly I think my last live show was JRAD at the end of March. Great show, but way too long for me to go without seeing live music. Don't think I could bring myself to see what passes for the Dead these days, but your plan sounds like a good one. My next show is Mdou Moctar at the end of the month. I had to miss Jazz Fest this year but I streamed what I could and one of the things I heard was his set, which was mesmerizing, so I was psyched to see that he was coming to New Haven (which he has apparently played twice before!). Crazy African guitar player--"Hendrix of the Sahara" they call him. I will also likely catch one of the Phish shows at Mohegan.

I like where you were going with that @Da_Aisijimo_Gou but the wife is less of a country fan than I am. Growing listening to the tucker boys, Charlie Daniels, Outlaws etc. gave me an appreciation for country rock.

This was and remains worthy music

Where we all belong is listening to Marshall Tucker 24 hours at a time. I saw the remnants of them 5 years ago but Doug Grey’s voice is shot. Good band when the Caldwell boys were alive.

Popular country has been crap for years but is making its way back thanks to quality acts like Lil Nas X.

A couple of months ago my wife and I started plotting our summer concerts. My wife was intrigued by Chris Young. I never heard of him was surprised to see he has about 6 CDS since 2006. I bought four.

He is a fusion of Bro Country and the 90s. I will be there Saturday nig ht jamming away.

@8893...I discovered Margo Price by accident a year ago. Can't wait to catch her live.

 

[Waquoit]

Country music sucks.

 

[Fishy]

Does he sing that horses in the back song?

Kids love that guy.

 

[crazyUCfan23]

I literally won these tickets and just ended up giving them away. Clearly its not a hard ticket to get lol

I think he’s “buy me a boat” guy right?
