More about my secret vice

If you're looking for the really juicy stuff you're going to be so disappointed. (Maybe later??)

Was told the 'thirtysomething studmuffin' post sounded 'desparate' so back to the weird world of country music. The annual CMA (Country Music Association) awards were on over the weekend and I recorded them for my later, private viewing pleasure. Tip - always record award shows, you can fast forward the really boring bits (in the case of the CMA awards the endless 'hat acts') and just watch the highlights. The performance by Alison Krauss and Union Station was the only bit I really watched, honest (perhaps a case of protesting too much?).

The show seemed to be more surreal than usual. This is the annual country music awards ceremony.....
Location? Madison Square Gardens, New York City.
Artists performing? Those well know country acts - Paul Simon, Norah Jones and Bon Jovi.
Finale? A duet of ‘Imagine’ performed by Dolly Parton and Elton John. Yep, that’s right, that well known country artist and good ole boy, Elton John!

However, there we occasions when it did revert to type - the title of 2 songs performed were;
.....Cheatin’
.....Twenty years and two husbands ago

Country music – no sense of irony or shame - you couldn’t make it up.
