Obviously now the circuit in the uk has just about taken its last few 
breaths.
I believe the death of country music has been brought about by several 
things including the acceptance of 3rd best.
I don't think it has anything to do with line-dancing, indeed, i think that 
was a stay of execution and gave it another 15 years but just delayed the 
inevitable.

There are too many acts out there with no real talent and it shows.
Doesn't have to be a full live band, backing tracks are fine if you are 
playing an instrument to them but it seems that all you have to be is 18 and 
"aaahhhh he/she must be brilliant, well yes he/she mimes the guitar and yes 
he/she mimes the high notes in the song but he/she is only 18 so thats ok 
and he/she must be brilliant.....bless".

"How  much to get in ? £3 ? £3 ? What do you mean the artist wants 
money....... for what ?
Artist drove 3 hours to get there will spend 5 hours in the club then 3 
hours to get home  ............."and they want money...... for that ?"
"Well I'm not going to that club anymore....they want to pay the  artist 
with MY money. and he/she is over 18 years old so he/she can't be that good"


Now look what you idiots have done.
Well I hope you are now getting your rocks off  with all the porn that has 
taken over this NG

You should get out more.

meaning what Frankie ? that you have a thriving country music circuit in 
your part of the world which is,,,,,,?
that the mime acts haven't reached your town ?
that there is no problem charging door prices where you live ?

I would love to get out more but all the clubs are closing....... and 
perhaps so should you, maybe take a course or two in communication
what does that mean exactly,,,,,,, that I should "get out more" ?
You can't just use a cliche that you have learned from the tv  and leave it 
unexplained or otherwise it means absolutely....nothing.
