Wow okay so I know I've slacked a bit this last week on Blog For My Horses, but gimme a break. I've been saying that the July 4th holiday should be *at least* a week long anyway. So pardon me while I take the time to chant "U.S.A." for a few days longer than others.
Shit though, I'm back, and I'm COUNTING DOWN THE DAYS to the big Sun City Carnival Tour stop in San Francisco featuring Kenny Chesney, Sugarland, Lady Antebellum, and Miranda Lambert. How fucking sick is that line up?? Seriously. Fuck Lollapalooza, fuck the PItchfork Festival, fuck Bonnaroo (although their line ups are usually pretty awesome). This is like the Woodstock motherlode of country tours.
Obviously I'm excited for Chesney. Who wouldn't be? I've already explored Sugarland a bit here on BFMH, but this week I wanted to bring my attention to another artist on the up: Lady Antebellum.
And what do you know what? Once again that the Washington Post's anti-country, beyond offensive stereotype of country music fans in their recent article to be 100% off base. Why don't you click around the web a little bit more next time, Washington Post? Maybe you would have noticed that Lady Antebellum is already on EPISODE #64 of their virally awesome Webisode Wednesday series!
And as you can see, shit gets NUTS when Lady Antebellum is backstage at the Sun City Carnival Tour when it hits Philadelphia:
Haha, nice one guys. There's just FRUIT in the juicer, hmm? Yea right. I can smell the moonshine from here, ya crazy drunks!
Another favorite episode of mine is EPISODE #62, as it demonstrates just how fucking hardcore country fans can get for their favorite bands:
AWESOME. Nothing really shows how much you love your favorite band like a fake tattoo with a sharpie. You can bet I'll be rolling *at least* this deep when I hit the Sun City Carnival Tour on Saturday.
Check out the smooth video for "Run To You":
And let's not forget... stealing the show at 2009 CMT Music Awards:
In all seriousness though... why isn't Lady Antebellum bigger? Rascal Flatts, I think you've just met your metrosexual mainstream country nemesis. Best put a little more gel in that hair, and make that eyeliner just a little bit thicker.
