First Off: I was going to write a proper roasting of this year’s CMA’s, but the Hank III Coalition did such a proper job, there’s not much more that can be said. IBWIP has a new podcast up, with interviews with Blake Judd and Keith Neltner from the Metal Farm release party in Cinci! Gotta […]

Down with the CMA (Part 3 – ACE & The Outlaws)

Real quick: A Hank III tour announcement is imminent. According to hank3.com it’s gonna start on the 23rd.

The revolution to take back Country Music has begun my friends. I am boldly declaring that on this day, the 3rd of November in the year 2008, the first salvo has been shot, and the money changers and Californicators of the Nashville power-elite oligarchy have no other choice but to take notice.
