We love to go out to the Orange Blossom Opry when some of those guys like Gene Watson come in....saw Hank Thompson a couple of years ago. My husband and I used to go out to the local honky-tonk about once a week before we moved here. I'm in the process now of putting all my old albums to CD. The way I'm doing it is kinda time-consuming because I choose to do the option of one song at a time so I can build custom CD's. With my collection, it will probably take me forever and a bigger computer to hold them, but it's fun and the music is priceless. Most of my stuff is in pristine condition since I used to play them sometimes only once in the process of putting them on tapes. I still haRive lots of the tapes, too. The idea of a new thread sounds like fun.

A country music forum is an excellent idea, that would be alot of fun!
I too love all music (could probably live w/o rap tho lol), but I listen to country all day long
. Wow I didnt know about the Orange Blossom Opry, sounds like they have great stars. How often? I will love that! Last night's tribute to George Strait was amazing, I am so glad I taped it too, now I can watch it over and over....all the big stars!
. I havnt figured out how to transfer my albums and CD's onto the computer yet
. My son always does the "electronic stuff" for me lol, but I better learn quick since he wont be in TV to help me out with my silly questions
. He bought me an IPOD for Christmas for my music so I can listen while gardening, but I have yet to take it out of the box lol.
P.S. "Walk the Line" (story of the life of Johnny Cash) is on Friday at 8 p.m. on CBS. I have seen it twice already and will watch again lol.
