The Christmas holiday has come to an end. The children are playing with their new toys as the adults enjoy their toys as well. Exchanges and returns are ongoing at the retail stores, and maybe a few gift cards are being spent on gifts that weren't received or already had been delegated for that gift card use. In these final few days of 2008, we take the time to reflect on the past year. Country...

Some new features will be beginning in 2009 on this blog for you to look forward to.My focus in the latter portion of the past year has been on the blog, and that is because I notice the level of traffic here is more busy than the actual website.

This is such a special time of year... every year it seems the world gets busier and busier. More commercialization than ever that begins the holiday season earlier and earlier. It's sad. We truly forget the true meaning of Christmas, Don't we? I'm not even meaning the spirit of Christmas. I mean the literal and absolute true meaning of Christmas, the birth of Christ. As you celebrate, rem...

Chesnutt's comment was "Nothing against her, but Ta...

Just a few days after my post of the economic impact, we learn Equity Music Group has suspended operations immediately (announced yesterday.) About 15 employees are now without jobs, and co-founder Clint Black, and his signed artists Laura Bryna, Carolina Rain, Kevin Fowler, and Blake Wise are left waiting for a decision on what the label's future is. From reading as much as I could from the ne...

These thoughts have been building up in me awhile now. Finally a catalyst came along to put it into prospective with facts. Rolling Stone has released their best of 2008 lists (best albums and best singles.) Now, after Christmas I will get into the year-in-review postings, but this list brings up such a strong point that I have with country music today.First; the list…Top 100 singles only 3 son.

I read a great article over on CMT that was titled "Is Country Music Recession Proof?" by Chet Flippo (If you haven't ever read Nashville Skyline on CMT.com, I highly suggest it.)

It is a really s...
