I hate to destroy anyone’s dreams, but in real life country stars curse just like everyone else. And “Opry management” can probably cope with it without fainting.

“Rick…what has Keith Urban ever done to you?”

I don’t know what Urban has done to Rick, but he has annoyed the heck out of me for years with his glossy, vapid, non-country brand of country.

Rick…what has Keith Urban ever done to you? Look where he is today and where you are….sitting here on a message board criticizing someone for their mistakes! Guess you’ve never made any..huh!

Yea…I watched the video earlier, and realized that having her sing with her was a poor decision on Michelle Branchs part.

That was quite a treat, Rick. Thanks for posting it.

Nothing against Michelle, but Ashly’s voice really shone there.

Rick’s Random Tidbits: Ashley Monroe performed publicly in LA for the first time last night and I was completely unaware of it! Michelle Branch was performing at “The Grove” and asked Ashley to join her for “Leave The Pieces”. This makes Ashley an honorary “Wrecker” for one night! Fortunatley someone with a camcorder recorded it and posted the video on YouTube. First it was Jewel and now Michele Branch is on board the Ashley train. Go Ashley!

And honestly, I wouldn’t really be surprised by anything Loretta Lynn says.

I’m actually surprised to learn that Pickler knows who Loretta Lynn is.

Pickler summed up the story (which she rarely does) by saying that if she’s in the business long enough, she hopes that people will consider her as genuine in person as they do when she’s onstage, just like Loretta Lynn.

I don’t think she is going to live 647 years.

^ Oh please I’m plenty old enough to use “foul language”

You’d think it wouldn’t be such a big deal on a country music blog =)
