Just because he gets entertainer of the year does not mean he is country.
You almost got me!!
1.) You most certainly did. At least three times in this thread alone.Quote:

3.) We'll have to agree to disagree -- I doubt you can back that up with anything concrete, and I tend to believe the absence of such a festival speaks pretty loudly.
Again never claimed it but okay... think what you want..Quote:

Willie alone can attract a huge crowd..
No, I'm trying to understand what your motivation is... you came to this site, discovered you hate half the lineup for the festival, and now you want to... what? Continue to tell everyone how much you hate Kenny Chesney? We get it -- you don't like him, or his music, or his lifestyle, or whatever. And you think Willie can outsell him (although, inexplicably, he does not... how can that possibly be?!).Quote:

My mistake -- obviously you are quite neutral on the subject of Kenny Chesney...:rolleyes:
Hey Seattle - it sounds like we are very close in points of view and proximity! It is nice to see that on here!
I think people are really missing the point about ticket prices here.
The $500 we were talking about is the general cost of the weekend, including accomodation, food, drink and travel etc.
Standard 2 day passes are only $165. A total bargain. Quit whining.
VIP passes are more money - but that's for the golden circle, and to be honest - the golden cirlce isn't all that great. Yes you get a bit closer, but the sound is always better when you're a bit further back.
So really you're bitching about $165 for a ticket, which is crazily cheap for all the artists you'll see.
When you go see someone at their own concert it may only cost $20. But you're not paying for 4 stages, hundreds of security, loan of a polo gound, fire crews, ambulance crews, police etc etc. It costs a lot of money to put these events on.
If you don't like it, and you don't want to go - do everyone a favor and spend your time more productively, rather than coming to a messageboard about a Country Music Festival that you're not even coming to. I mean....seriously - is your life that boring?
Are you serious??? Everyone of those statements were responses to other posts in the same thread .. So if you want to look at it as constant bashing then suit yourself. You guys almost got me ..!!!Quote:

Geez, kids, this rant needs to be shut down. I saw Kenny w\George, Tim McGraw and the Chicks... 'bout seven years back in Vegas... he was country... at one time. but hey.... if puka shells and slow songs can garnish the $$ and the girls... who knows, maybe I would sell out to. It really doesn't matter folks... after a day of real country music... cuddling up with a Perry Como wouldn't be bad. Chill and enjoy.
Im referencing this.. " So if you want to look at it as constant bashing then suit yourself. " Remember now???Quote:

Oh.. I see.. you're the arbiter now.. . What position do I need to defend? Any derogatory comments about chesney have been in this thread and maybe one comment in another.. If you percieve these comments as an attack on Chesney then I guess you're a little sensitive. I was asked why I wouldn't go and I answered, simple as that. But you dont see it that way apparently.Quote:

Sigh. This is really getting tiresome, Misfit. Surely you are capable of reading your own posts. R-E-A-D them, honey, it’s not that difficult. You’ve claimed to know which artists are “real”; you have implied that if an artist is not “real” in your estimation, he or she is lacking in quality; you have made numerous negative comments about one artist in particular, then back-pedaled and claimed you were not bashing him; you have refused to answer a direct question as to what you would consider bashing... Do you need me to go on, or have you figured out that READing thing now?
(And for anyone else reading this thread -- no, there is no point to it, other than Misfit continually setting himself (or herself) up and getting called on his/her contradictions and inconsistencies. And yes, the fun quickly drains out of it when all a person can say is "think what you like" and "wow that was witty." No challenge = no fun.)
