I like Dale's music but I'm kind of tired of hearing everybody complaining about "new country". I'm no fan of most new country but for God's sake. If you're a singer and you want to make a musical statement, let your music talk for you. I don't like new country but instead of complaining, I just don't listen to it.
I wonder what Dale will make of Kenny singing with George on his new album? Gotta agree with whats been said about letting his music speak for itself. Dale has some really good songs but he craps all over them (and himself) with his obsession with "real Country".
@davidn87 I used to be a part of that group that riots and cusses over what is and what isn't Country but I got out of it because I realised how vile and nasty it was. I'm a fan of Dale, but i'm also a fan of Taylor, Brad, Carrie, Kenny (Chesney and Rogers), Jace Everett, Dolly, Willie, Glen & Kris. Y'all need to open your minds and stop hating.
all them "country music stars" makin millions dont know what its all about, id rather be broke and like dale or roger alan wade or rebel son.. getcha pull
Dale Watson has the greatest voice,along with a personality to match! I saw him at Fitzgeralds in Illinois and he posed with my wife and Me for a picture.
Dale Watson And his band are genuine Country. When you see these guys in a bar atmosphere, they mingle with the crowd during their break. When the band performs, they will down a shot or two with the crowd. They will have a beer or two. It is just like Dale and the band are in your living room playing for you and your friends. Their fans love them and they love their fans. By the way, Underwood, Swift, Hill, McGraw and Rascal Flatts, why that's Country My Ass.
Just recently discovered Dale Watson.....this cat definitely gets 2 thumbs up! Definitely beats the "bad pop" being cranked out of Nashville...most of the puppets coming out of there are about as country as a sidewalk...BAH!
Hey Chinton, Nashville Sucks! Dale is doing far better than he would in Nashville, AND he's not getting financially raped by a big label that doesn't give a crap about him. Why are you knocking Waylon and Willie? THAT'S COUNTRY MY ASS!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
my point is all dale does is piss and moan. u don't hear Marty Stuart and Vince Gill bicthin like this all the time. I like Dale's music but my point is he's a bitter old has-been who couldn't cut it. Ain't tryin to start no shit just statin my opinon
He criticizes the Nashville machine in this song and Nashville Rash, but aside from that I don't see how he's bitter or complaining.
And as far as a has been, judging from his tour schedule, and some of the bigger festivals he's been playing it looks like he's doing pretty damned good to me.
He may not be on the level of the hat acts as far as international fame, but he has a very loyal following and has never compromised his musical integrity.
What I am trying to say is the same thing rockinkeyz is saying. He is spot on with his opinion about new country, but don't beat a dead a dead horse. If your good enough just let the music do the talking for you. I've seen his music on youtube and he whines too damn much. I love his music and "Honky Tonkers Don't Cry" is one of my favorite songs. But it's the same thing with Hank 3, his music is good but his mouth is filthy. Alan Jackson and Brad Paisley are country and they have some class.
if i had a choice of seeing any country artist in all of north america.i would pick dale watson over the flat rascals, kenny cheesy,timmy or faith,shania the twit.
dale watson is any a growing number of real country artists keeping it real.
i applaud them.all of the nay sayers are entitled to their opinions.
sadly most young people wouldn't know real country if it kicked them in the butt.
country music is getting about like it was in the 60's before waylon and willie came along and demanded artistic freedom. Although Dale makes a good point and I agree with him, you have to remember Dale got cut by nashville and is very bitter about it.
I've seen Dale more than enough times to bitch about the fact that his shows are just a bitchfest about why hes not selling a million records. As far as your comments about me, you can simply go fuck yourself...
you're missing my point. I love the music, and when you a see a two hour show and over an hour of it is him bitching about nashville, or trying to define his "new" americapolitan music, and its happened like the last 3 shows i went to, it gets old. Hes makes a great point, but he kills the subject... Let the music do the talking.Jesus look at the last album cover, its the main focus anymore.
Eddy Arnold ,Jim Reeves were part of the Nashville sound,Which in their day made them like Rascal Flatts today. Then all producers wanted horns and strings in all songs and basicly made the music sound like a Las Vagas lounge act.
Thank God yall know what REAL country is. As he said, "I can see Hank and Lefty, they're spinning around in their graves"
As I was watching the ACM's with my family, I asked my daddy if he thought any of the legends were rolling over in their graves, and he said that they just put Eddy Arnold in the ground, they better go check and make sure he's still down there.
S.O.B.'s in Nashville couldn't hold a light. I reckon why that's why they don't want him around, he would expose their lack of musical ability. Great job Dale!! You keep it up pal!!!
I like this song but i disagree bout Chesney, I think Dale should have said Keith Urban instead. I do agree bout McGraw and Faith and them damn Flatt Rascals, only thing there doin is tryin to be the Allman Bros.
It's coming back. It'll be a slow climb, but real country won't die. Hank's heart is stillbeatin from 6 feet under, and we can all hear it! Dale is a country music prophet. God bless this man!
KC steeler, i lived in KC but am now living in St Louis, I had every intention of making it up there for that show but could not make it. Thanks for posting all the songs he played that night. I wish I had been there.
Real country music will come back again, you just wait. They've tried hijack it, turn it into pop and run it into the ground before, and it always comes back.
Dale Who RULES!!!

Funny, you seem to be the only person complaining.
Then again, you seem to frequently use the term "bitch" which seems very appropriate.
The truth hurts it seems. Perhaps you would enjoy going to see Rascal Flatts or Big and Rich more. I suggest you attend their shows instead.
