Please note, no real relationships were harmed in the making of this Facebook post.

Good thing you weeded her out when you did. Next thing you know, she might have started dissing Nudie suits. :wink:

She said that the first time she saw me in a cowboy hat, I went down a notch in terms of attractiveness.

She also thinks that my wearing of cowboy boots is stupid.

Can't make this stuff up.

:mrgreen:

You surely made the right choice!

Probably hates Buck Owens too!

Look what our young lads are subject to these days. It's a sad, sad thing :lol:

DeJa Vu all over again> Topic of discussion, how long your hair is and the style? Was 1965 at the H.S. with the Asst. Pricipal. Could she be the granddaughter of that schmoe?

Get a fresh heifer.

You guys should follow the advice of the young girl, get out of your caves once in a while

I have to be honest, I have a hard time getting past Marty's hair.

My wife hates how I dress, she wishes I would dress like this

I should probably send her away to New England

Well Lerb your only 19 so you have a few divorces and lots of money and real estate to lose before you find true love.
My advice. Always have a hundred grand in cash and a fake passport just in case.

Don't send her here we already have enough people who dress like that!

I think Marty looks cool, ya the hair is a little out there but he's an Entertainer with a capitol E. Looking like the average guy off the street doesn't do it, that's why he dresses like he does ( and the Superlatives too) and created an image you can't soon forget. Plus he backs it up with the best musicianship. The chick just don't get it...... bye bye

Thats a little better than the Marty look, but barely.
At least he is not wearing a blue spandex cowboy suit like his musicians.
Now Marty can play,though i only vere saw one youtube video of him in my whole life and my eyes are still trying to recover, but fashion wise, he has absolutely no clue

I love Marty but, on his tv show, he really needs to wear a shirt under his suit jackets. That coupled with his "neck thing" makes for a bizarre look all around.

Nope- I don't run with the sheep. If you don't like my boots and my rose snappy shirt, just keep on moving. Luckily for me, though my wife teases me, she accepts me for who i am. That is love..,

She's right, he does have horrific hair.

Of course not. No one's saying anything about his music, but he does dress like a rodeo clown from 1983... Just sayin'

(Although now that I think about it his music, ummm, ain't exactly my cup of tea, know what I mean?)

"pompamullet"

Best term ever and in this case dead-on true.

:lol: Just carrying on the tradition, that's all... Your post was missing the obligatory JMHO tag :wink:. If I had his money and career, you can bet your boots I'd go see Manuel and get him to make me some suits too...
Matter of taste. :razz:

But it's clearly not just MY humble opinion though is it? There seem to be others who also think Marty looks totally daft...

Love the suit, the terrible hair, no shirt, shiny bandana look though... Ummmmm...??

(OK, I'll stop now, I'm only having a bit of fun with ya)

Don't get my wrong, his Nudie and Manuel suits are awesome! I wish I had the $$$ to have a few of my own.

:lol::lol::lol: Good one...

I don't mind the pompamullet or the suit. It's part of his act. Heck, if I wasn't follicularly impaired I'd prolly have a big old afro. I'm a live and let live kind a guy, but the kid with the pink pants is wrong in so many ways.

I remember a girlfriend in h.s. that didn't enjoy the Star Trek II The Wrath of Khan because it wasn't "very realistic". That's when I knew that relationship was never going to work.

You will be better off without her Little Buddy.

Lots of womenfolk.

Only one Marty Stuart.

Here he is last Sunday. Decked out in some of Manuel's finest. Hardly over the top at all...

Hillbilly hair.

Nothing really outrageous.

It's not a man purse it's a carry all (Seinfeld).

Personally, nobody in country music now can rock the "pompamullet", or the Nudie and Manuel suits like Marty and the boys can. I dig those suits and if I had the cash likewise would own a few myself. Above and beyond the whole appearance thing Marty is a super human being and superb musician. ~ IMHO

Does she think your tractor is sexy?

The suit looks awesome. However, the bare skin under his suit jacket, coupled with that neck thingie, looks weird.

It looks like he's wearing a frogskin shirt

I'm sure I have a half interesting comment but I'm still laughing my butt off at "pompamullet".

The necktie thing makes him look like he belongs in a 70's Swedish Erotica film. Some of you will know what I'm talking about. :grin:

Big Marty Stuart fan, and I like his whole thing (giant hair, neckerchief...). It works for him because he owns it and it's part of his charm, but there's no way on earth I'd EVER try and defend his visual style choices to my wife or anyone. That would just be crazy. At the same time, somehow I'd be a little disappointed if he cut off all his hair and just started wearing jeans and looked like anyone off the street. It would be like a part of him died. :(

I love Marty Stewart's guitar playing and singing, but I can't stand his look.
Still, that doesn't ever stop me from dialing in on listening to his music, i just take it for what it is.

It's the tradition he comes from rooted deep in country & western music.
His look has gone in and out of style several times over, but his music never does.
So while I don't really give a damn how he dresses, he does look tacky as all get out.

From the "pompamullett" to the tan and body suits and stitching, he's way otu there and looks like some kind of gay troubador with that damn neckerchief. But whatever floats his boat I guess.

lerb be yourself... keep weeding



marty was always country's liberace

Rupaul...

Maybe Marty's just messin' with everybody's head. I can't think of anyone in show buisness or anyone I know who has a better time living life. He genuinely enjoys playing to the crowd, and being IN the band. He's the guy out in front, but he gives ALL his guys their turn in the spotlight, he wouldn't be Marty if he didn't look like that. That string bender thing, try it, you'll see how hard it is to get it in the right place. Even Marty says he doesn't do it as good as Clarence did, but he does it pretty good!

I never really understood the neckerchief...

Um, the neck thing makes me think he had a tracheotomy at one time.......

It's strange to imagine there are folks out there that have never attended a Cowboy Poetry Gathering and wore a wild rag. For longer than I can remember Cowboy suits, fancy boots and Wild Rags have been a part of my stage appearance. It kind throws ya a curve ball when you hear folks that don't understand that there is a whole sub-culture that all dress, and understand how cool a pair of fancy inlayed boots, big hair, and silk scarf are. Sometimes I almost feel sorry for them folks and start to shed a tear over their ignorance of what is cool and hip.
That's been my fashion style since I was just a youngster and got hooked on Hank!

wore a wild rag.

Hum, what comes to mind will get me banned.
Just remember that cowboys are pretty much limited to the U.S.
Our japanese member wonder why you are not wearing a silk pajama on stage while having your hair done with a topknot

I did a two week gig on a Japanese cruise ship a while back and they were all dressed in boots, cowboy hats, and scarves every night for our show.
Also did a rodeo in France and they were all dressed the same there.

At least he's not wearing shorts.

:shock: Sure. No other nation in the world has ever seen western movies or western tv series... :shock: I was born and raised in France and had the whole outfit as a kid ( hat, gun and holster, bandana, vest, etc. ), watched countless westerns on tv, etc. I even spent my favorite birthday ever in a Wild West theme park near Paris that had a buffalo, a train attacked by "indians" and shootouts... Here's a link to it : http://www.merdesable.fr/parc-aventure-avec-animations-pour-enfants-mer-de-sable

And did you ever wonder why you cannot find vintage LeVI'S jeans and jackets from the 60s-50s ? They are all in Japan... I knew a guy who had a vintage US clothing store and they were sending all their best pieces there. They even have Japanese companies that make very good reproductions of old western wear.

It's strange to imagine there are folks out there that have never attended a Cowboy Poetry Gathering and wore a wild rag.

Is it really that strange? Why would I attend a Cowboy Poetry Gathering when the closest cowboys are hundreds of miles away? Plus, I don't like country music. Why would I wear a "wild rag" when I live in an urban neighbourhood?

Living in the Sonoran Desert, you probably can't swing a dead armadillo without hitting something cowboy. Vancouver is a whole different place.

On the other hand, have you ever had a box full of toques and mittens in your hall closet? Have you ever dug through a drawer to find your roll of hockey tape? Have you stayed up late to watch the Spengler Cup Final?

It's not strange at all that different people do not participate in other people's cultural pastimes. I am quite aware of cowboy culture, but I don't experience it.

Marty keeps the hair mousse industry profitable.

MapQuest shows that Vancouver is 600 miles (960 km) to Calgary. You could head over yonder to the Stampede...

Have an Elsinore while you're there!

Speaking of Elsinore, I'll bet you a case that there are more "cowboys" living in Vancouver (pop 600,000) than there are in the county that I live in (pop 17,000.)

Ever shop here? (http://rockincowboy.ca/)

There are cowboys even closer than Calgary, in Merritt, but I don't think they do poetry readings.
As for the Rockin' Cowboy store, ummm, no, I've never even seen it, let alone gone inside. Frankly, though, I just don't see cowboys walking the streets of Vancouver. Maybe in Surrey and Langley. Certainly not in Port Moody. But cowboys are generally a happy bunch, so that would make sense. :smile:

"hey mr f -350, can you even ride ?"


merritt try the cloverdale rodeo

kel - i know a pro bull rider he lives in ladner looks the part 100% you might see him in town when he's not on the rodeo circuit- yeehaw!

And did you ever wonder why you cannot find vintage LeVI'S jeans and jackets from the 60s-50s ? .
No.
Anyways , people have been playing dress up forever. Punk, goths, pants waist at the knees, cowboys, etc
Enjoy, don't hurt anyone

merritt try the cloverdale rodeo

Yeah, I thought of that, but are rodeo athletes actually cowboys? I think of cowboys as someone who earns a living actually working with cows and horses on a ranch or some such thing.
Can you be a cowboy while wearing a hockey helmet and pads as you ride the bull?

She's right, he does have horrific hair.

With all due respect,at least he HAS hair! lol :smile:

Which is more than i can say for myself...

This thread... man. I need a drink.

Cowboy is a state of mind... and whether you ride the wilds of the subway in Queens, NY (or Waylonfans france or telemarkmans prairies of Norway) it doesn't matter if you ride and shoot or any of that (and I say that as someone who takes solace in lots of wide open space, horses, cows, getting to shoot a varmint now and again, and feel normal wearing a cowboy hat and boots...which I wore to work friday)

Marty is doing the cool glitzy cowboy homage... an era that I love.. when country music was really super popular all over the place and the entertainers brought a little glitz into lives that might be a bit drab...

Marty is a good ol boy and comfortable in his own skin and able to really live the old ways... bless him for that!

I love stage outfits even if I don't wear them all the time... they are a lot of fun and the fans love them...

if you follow the cowboy code, you can live anywhere, wear what you want and just enjoy life... it isn't a part in a play, it is just a part of life...

okay, I am heading out of doors boys... y'all keep the convo going about hair styles and who is okay and who ain't.

Cowboy is a state of mind...

if you follow the cowboy code, you can live anywhere, wear what you want and just enjoy life... it isn't a part in a play, it is just a part of life...

State of mind? Code?

Please elucidate.

I enjoy the outdoors. I enjoy wide open spaces. I have spend time in the hills and the prairie, have traversed the wind-swept passes of the Chilcotins, and have lived in the sunburnt splendour of the Australian outback.
I have enjoyed riding horses from time to time, and I have lived on a farm, upon which were a pair of cows. I ain't never shot me no varmint, however. Nor have I worn cowboy hats and boots, though I do have a wide-brimmed hat purchased in the gold-mining town of Barkerville. On the other hand, you seem to be saying that the hat and boots are not necessary for one to be a cowboy.
I own a Telecaster and have sung the songs of Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, and Dwight Yoakum, among others, in front of a line-dancing audience.
Adding it all up, have I met enough of the cowboy code to be considered a cowboy?

A 2012 Porter Wagoner. I'm just glad he loves & plays real country music. If you don't like his look or sound, change the channel or station......I'm sure you can find some non-washed look hair sporting artists elsewhere.:wink:

It's simple (the code)

Work hard.
Play hard.
Talk less, and you'll say more.
Make a promise, keep it.

At least he's not wearing shorts.

Bwahahahaaaaa! I'm mean really, who wants to see that?

It used to be that getting out of "short pants" meant you'd grown up. Now I see these middle-aged fatasses in their cargo shorts and just wanna hurl.:lol:

Yes. You don't need the accoutrements, or experience the wide open spaces. It's a state of being. You can be a "cowboy" and live in Manhattan.

That's up to you, not us.:mrgreen:

Post of the day!
Thanks!

This sums it up. (http://www.cowboyway.com/Music/Clips/IWontBeWronged.wav)

Can you be a cowboy while wearing a hockey helmet and pads as you ride the bull?

sure .. i think safety gear is required by the PBRA or regional laws

"Bull riding helmet"
a rodeo helmet that is designed to provide substantial protection for a person's head and face during bull riding.


"Protective vest"
protective clothing that covers a person's chest and torso to prevent or mitigate injury to those areas.

"Rodeo"
an exhibition or competition, without regard to whether the participants are compensated, involving various dangerous activities related to cowboy skills, including:

(A) riding a horse, with or without a saddle, with the goal of remaining on the horse while it attempts to throw off the rider;

(B) riding a bull;

(C) roping an animal, including roping as part of a team;

(D) wrestling a steer; and

(E) riding a horse in a pattern around preset barrels or other obstacles.

+1000!

I saw Marty yesterday. One of the best shows I have seen in a long time! They all have the look they because it works. I could not imagine how the show would've been with out the suits, hair, comedy. They are a great group of entertainers and players to boot. Not to mention one of the most iconic telecasters of all time. Most people who own guitars with that kind of history lock them up somewhere. Marty plays his piece of history every day. Just seeing that guitar gives me goose bumps every time I see him playing it. One of my favorite acts of all time.

Posted for Dave's intro, the interplay between Kenny's Hat and Marty's hair, and the fact that it is just a rocking song.

BTW, I understand the neckerchief as cowboy wear, but Marty's just looks, soft.

Your new theme song :

qBTES9rRNro

Believe it or not hoss... that's the song that "converted" me back when I was kid.

I bought the album on the first day it came out and have played it on a weekly basis, without fail, ever since then. It's one of my favorite records all time, bar none.

I remember back in 2005 (I was 12 or 13) right when the song came out and the record wasn't out yet... I listened to the song about 100 times a day and drove my parents nuts. Before that I had listened to Kenny Chesney and Tim Mcgraw (cold shiver).

I can't remember where I first heard it (maybe on the radio), but I remember vividly the actual experience of having the sound hit my ears. That kick drum, Telecaster, Steel, and voice like rolling thunder that Mr. Ray Scott has. It was unlike anything I'd ever heard before, and has shaped my life.

Ever since that day I've listened to the old stuff and loved the twang to death. It inspired me to learn to play lead guitar and buy a Telecaster. I knew as soon as I heard it that I wanted to be a musician more than anything.

So y'all can blame Ray Scott for my tastes. :mrgreen:

I don't blame Kay for not liking Marty Stuart's haircut, she's a city girl after all. Love her to death, but we both know that bringing a country idiot like me into the city is a recipe for misery, for both of us. Same goes for bringing her out here to live. It's a shame. But I ain't givin' up music like this for anybody. It's been there for me when women weren't.

Just for the record... just like the song says, Kay is a HUGE Whitney Houston fan. :lol:

She's right, he does have horrific hair.

At least he still has hair. I wish i had half the folicles Mr. Stuart has. :wink:

Serves her right... just wish i could get that show on up here. Marty is not on xfinity at all.

I love Marty Stewart's guitar playing and singing, but I can't stand his look.
Still, that doesn't ever stop me from dialing in on listening to his music, i just take it for what it is.

It's the tradition he comes from rooted deep in country & western music.
His look has gone in and out of style several times over, but his music never does.
So while I don't really give a damn how he dresses, he does look tacky as all get out.

From the "pompamullett" to the tan and body suits and stitching, he's way otu there and looks like some kind of gay troubador with that damn neckerchief. But whatever floats his boat I guess.

Very true!

The one change that the people who started the crossover in the 70s, like Gram Parsons, is that they brought the longer hair thing with them. I see country performers today with longer hair than I had back then when I used to get beaten up for having long hair by the local cowboys (this is 60s - 70s). It must be tough for them not to have anyone to pummel now...

Love 'pompamullett" though1 VWD!

Sad fact is that everybody who posted in the 1st two pages like it was an open audition for Joan Rivers assistant fashion critic looks like a flaming dork to somebody else. Difference between Marty and his critics is that Marty is too busy being true to his passion to give 2 turds whether anybody doesn't like his "look".

Lerb, Here's some friendly and earnest advice. The first time a girl/woman tries to get you to change your style, be it hair, clothes, boots etc., politely remove yourself from that situation. It starts there and only gets worse!:mrgreen:

The more the wind blows, the more my hair looks like Marty Stuart's...
