Realizing, that the artistis that many of us respect were not part of mainstream country in their day, I have to say this about the current state of country music. It is begining to remind me of the last days of Hairband Arena Rock with power ballads and poppy catchy choruses. The grunge scene came in as a reaction against that kind of music (not that it was much better, and the level of guitar playing tanked), but I think it is only a matter of time until the same thing happens to todays country. I think there will be a reaction against today's country eventually. I did not watch the ACM's so I can't comment on the sound.
