Tim McGraw personally ejects rowdy fan(video) - Page 3

I find considering Tim McGraw country and western specious at best!

My opinions (which is all they are) are about people who would tend to want to go to a Tim McGraw show... not a whole genre, not a region of a country, not any other geographic entity. So, please don't infer that as it would be counter to my intention. Since you don't actually know me nor I you, don't make the mistake of thinking that the geography in my profile would have anything to do with my geographic heritage.

So, again, since I never mentioned Country and Western but did most definitely mention Tug's son... lets limit it where I limited it... anything else would be manipulative (regardless of the heavy handedness) and the whole archie bunker reference was laughable except I think maybe you might believe it.

Do whatever spinning you feel you need to, to whatever purpose suits you....

Let's be realistic here. Tim did not know that he was Tug McGraw's son until he was 11 years old. He went to meet him and Tug disavowed him as his son. When he turned 18 Tug finally accepted that Tim was his son. Tim went to Nashville but he got his record deal because Tug was friends with the CEO of Curb records.
I am not trying to be negative here but nepotism did it's job. I personally think that if it weren't for pitch correction he would never have made it past demo.
Right after Hurricane Katrina they did a commercial with a bunch of celebs singing "Dixie". He was in a boat without his studio tools and he couldn't hold a note in a bucket.
They soon took it off the air.

He really does try to appeal to the "red-neck" demographic.
He doesn't wear those "wife-beaters" himself without reason.

Pitch correction? Hmmmmmm. Well it seems to me then that he just got into the same buisness as his old man was in.

Hi All,

I am a 'special needs' teacher and my wife is also a special needs teacher/ coordinator. My wife has more degrees than I can remember lol...

If a Tim Mcgraw show came near us we are going and that is coming more from my wife than me (I'm the true hillbilly and she's pure English). My wife's favourite is Sting (The Police), but she has a soft spot for Tim and his mate Kenny.

The men robbed them and attempted to force Lawrence and his friend into her motel room. Lawrence resisted and was shot four times, allowing his friend to escape. Two of the wounds were major and necessitated surgery. One of the bullets remains embedded in Lawrence's pelvis."
This was the event I was talking about.

Must be a trend going on. I can think of a few others in that town that could benefit from a scare like that.

Yeah, maybe we'd get lucky and they wouldn't come back.

GetBent,

Admittedly, I don't listen to current music on the radio anymore. What I know about Tug McGraw's son comes from Wiki and they listed him as "country". What ever happened to the "Western" part? Anyway..

GetBent, I've come to enjoy your posts as you impress me with your broad knowledge of music and guitars, but expected a bit more tact from you.
