It's about time. I know they were having problems getting sponsors, even tho' the shows were taped and ready to go awhile back.....it's a favorite at my house and I record everyone of them.

Thank God! They're one of the few great conduits of "true" country music in this no-real-country town o' mine. Great news! And I hear they're gonna have some new artists that havn't been on there yet...like, some really good'uns.

Do you think they'll have a steel player in the band? How about fiddle?

New artist on RFD or the older artist we no longer hear on radio?

George Crickmore · Post by **George Crickmore** » 14 Oct 2011 11:19 am

Hopefully older artist. Not that radio pop country crap.

Texas is the ONLY place you can hear REAL country...Almost everything that comes out of nashville is CRAP..LONG LIVE TruCountry and RFD tv

Charles Davidson · Post by **Charles Davidson** » 15 Oct 2011 8:47 pm

CRAP is the NICE term for new country,Can't really call it what is is here.

YOU BETCHA,DYK?BC.

Kevin Hatton · Post by **Kevin Hatton** » 16 Oct 2011 12:55 pm

Suburban Rock more like likely. Fuzz guitars and B3 organs. Not country. God bless Texas.

Theresa Galbraith · Post by **Theresa Galbraith** » 16 Oct 2011 2:04 pm

I watched a little of the Americana Awards the other night and thought most of it was CRAP.

If anyone can record the episode with Danni Leigh, I would appreciate it. Love Danni.

YOU BETCHA,DYK?BC.

By Jove, Theresa, I think you're getting the hang of it!

I love vintage Country, the "old crap" I believe it was referred to, as much if not more than anybody. BUT, the narrowmindedness exhibited herein is exactly why I stay off here more and more all the time. Ugh. NEWS FLASH: Real Country music exists and thrives other places besides just in Tejas, y'all. Double ugh. You do NOT have the market cornered on good taste. In fact, some of the most faddish trendy music I've ever been part of was in Texas. I understand you guys don't like Gnashville, and Gnashville don't much like y'all either, but can ya please leave the rest of us out of your peeing match?
Thanks.

Btw, KUDOs to TruCountry for staying non-commercial and true to the roots of the music.
And for those die-hard "there ain't no real Country music outside of Texas" folks, there was a nationally syndicated REAL Country music TV show based in the Ozarks, over a half century ago. Just sayin.

Greg Stasny · Post by **Greg Stasny** » 17 Oct 2011 5:07 pm

Texas doesn't have a monopoly on traditional country, or western swing, just currently has some extremely good bands staying very busy. This despite of minimal radio play, or major media interest.
The TX FM stations rebelling against Nashville often play "red dirt Tx music", which is also about as similar to traditional country as Rascal Flatts or Taylor Swift, and often with less talent.
So we buy CD's, lament the loss of XM's "Willies's Place", and drive 2-5 hrs (big state,TX) to hear twin fiddles and steel (lots of steel) done right.
And catch TruCountry on RFD...

Scott Shipley · Post by **Scott Shipley** » 17 Oct 2011 5:21 pm

Just try playin in Texas if you ain't from there. Just sayin...
Proof is how many non-Texas artists are appearing on the show.
