what passes for country music on the radio today is not really music. its calculated sound to generate money.

It's not country. It's pop music with violins and banjos.

Saw that vid yesterday.
Butt/Bro Rock with a twang.
Florida Georgia Line are one of the worst perpetrators of this genre.
I fucking hate those douchebags.

In fairness, anything being played on any radio station pretty much sounds the same as the other 6-7 songs in each station's rotation.

...as a result I've found myself listening to WBBM-AM more than I ever thought I would.

It sucks getting old. I know.

Yeesh, that is pretty bad. Judging by the pics I've seen those shows are a great place for good looking tail though.

There are certain commonalities shared by most hit records. The "songwriters" and record companies know exactly what they are and the songs are written accordingly, often using computers to do so. It's like SABRmetrics for music.

Bingo

I think country producers would take pride in that. Music as assembly-line product is a very American ethos. Think of all that perfecting and evolving!

Nashville session drummer Tommy Wells referred to it as C3 (cookie cutter country) or Nashville pop.

I think some real old-timers would tell you that there's no such thing as a country drummer.
Of course, I don't agree.

We played on a bill with this band in Memphis. This drummer must have been 90 years old at the time. His name was Ringo. We spent the night at the bass player's place. He lived in a big house with three or four cute girls. He's a pretty famous guy down in Memphis. His name is Ron Easley, but he sometimes used the stage name "Durand Mysterion".

Awesome. Those drumsticks are huge! I love how those old-school guys are so attached to their gear - drummers that play with the same sticks/heads for 20+ years.

I like to listen to country music while I go eat breakfast at a diner.
