Gene, I agree 100% and no offense was taken. I've enjoyed the clips on your website. The last time I visited you had a couple of clips of a western swing group that you used to play with that were quite good. Thanks.

All I know is ZZTop sounds more like country to me than some of what is marketed as country today.

I prefer to think of CMT as someone who is playing some country, infact what other venues broadcast the Opry, and other features that have Country Artist?..I may not like all the broadcast but there are some that you can't get nowhere else. So just select the ones you like as one does on any TV network. They may cater to the "young" audience but once in a while there is something for us old f@rts too.

I don't know what it is.... but the last time I saw John Hughey play on TV it was on CMT. He was on a re-broadcast of Austin City Limits. He sounded great and it gave me another opportunity to see his flawless right hand technique up close.. :-)

CMT was also the last place I saw Mooney playing on TV with Waylon. I enjoyed watching him play.

CMT was the last place I saw Tommy White playing steel on stage..

CMT was the last place I saw Dave Robbins playing steel on stage....(with Jean Shepherd) sp?

Without CMT ? Where are you going to see these guys play without being there in person.

For the wise guys out there (by in person) I wasn't talking about Waylon.. :-)

Thanks
