Advantages: Good singer. some great songs
Disadvantages: bit rock and roll but still good

Garth Brooks is a very popular singer who appeals to both country and non country fans. While I personally do like some of his music, I believe he is nowhere near the talent of alabama. chris ledoux, or george strait. all of whom are 100% real. He appears to have a bit of an identity crisis over coutnry and rock and roll, but even cowboys like a little rock and roll i guess. Some sources state that he is the top selling solo artist in histroy. He ...
...and its your song. Musically garth brooks usually plays the guitar, but I have not heard musch guitar that is very impressive musically as a guitarist myself. One of his first hits is much too young to feel this damn old. As a former rodeo cowboy I can tell you that song is pretty accurate to a degree. Garth brooks has been married twice the second and current marriage is to fellow country music artist trisha yearwood. The two were long rumored to ... Read review

I discovered Brett Dennen by chance and boy am I glad I did. My girlfriend took me to see Missy Hinggins (one of my favourite Australian artists), while she was touring in Canada. However, my girlfriend did not tell me who we were going to see. Brett Dennen was the second opening act and right from his first song I knew that he was going to be great. Brett Dennen is from Oakdale, California and his music style is Easy listening Folk/Pop. Like a ...
...Mayer and The Bedouin Sound Clash. His lyrics are uplifting and positive and his music reinforces those feelings. He has three albums out: 1. Bett Dennen (Self Titled) 2. So Much More 3. Children's Songs for Peace and a Better World (composed for the Mosaic Project) In my opinion his best songs are "Darlin' Do Not Fear", "When You Feel It", "The One Who Loves You The Most" and the first song from his first album "Blessed". Now I know that ... Read review

...and his fans and the dixie chicks. Suffice to say Keith represents traditional country and the dixie chicks i do not even really consider country and I really would rahter have my sons be like toby keith than a daugher be like one of the dixie chicks. They were actually quoted as saying they do not feel like part of the country seen anymore. That is what happens when you attack your own country and its leader. Musically the dixie chicks really do ... Read review

Disadvantages: None

...had the pleasure of seeing Gary Allan twice in concert the in the last 8 months and he is one fantastic musician. He puts all he's got into both performances I've seen and nothing less. He plays all the big hits that everyone knows like "Songs About Rain", "Watching Airplanes", "Best I've Ever Had" and " Nothing On But the Radio". He also plays other songs that are not that well known or played often on country radio or television stations. He never ...
...makes the crowd feel part of his shows. I have a few cds of his and I have to say that he's much better live then on the cd personally for me. If you ever have the chance to see him at least give him a try and see if you like him.
