Oregon and Washington BS thread

This is absolutely horrible.

 

Not mad, but appreciative that I am watching you back...

I can help, but I am all the way to Deer Park, north of Spokane. It's something like 3 hours from tri cities to my place, although I do have weekends available. You are probably better off getting help from username than me. I did pick up a trick from BensonX for not needing a spring compressor though. Put truck on jack stand, then use the floor jack to lift the wheel, compressing the spring, remove necessary nuts/bolts, and use the jack to slowly let the wheel back down. Keeps from shooting the nut someplace where you never find it.

 

Single for eternity. haha.

 

Not true. Country music is not something that is ever on in my truck, so a woman turning country music off in my truck is praised.

 

X2

 

Some people have no taste.

 

And those people also listen to country music

 

I used to hate country. Now I've learned that it died near the tail end of the 70s and everything now is just plastic memories created by hollywood.

I hate to say it, but I can see a trend for the same across other genres as well.
I have a feeling that unless some miracle happens, Foo Fighters are going to be the last 'big' rock name; and when you listen to them, I can't help but feel as if Dave gets neutered every time by the recording studio.
R&B/soul died in the mid 80s or went underground.
Pop is too much a catch-all to even rate anything.

 

Yep, its pretty much the same for all genres. Most of the shit the radio will play for all the genres is made with plug and play formulas. I listen to a LOT of old stuff for every genre haha.

 

Can't stand the shitty corporate country. It blows.

Been really into Drive By Truckers for quite a while. Excellent songwriting, good blend of musical styles - with a definite country emphasis.

Whiskeytown/Ryan Adams

Lucero

Neko Case

The Sadies

Punch Brothers

Old 97's

 

I listen to SOME country, but I usually start cussing and yelling at the radio of certain "artists" come on. Reba Macintire and Sara Evans could die and I would not mind. A bit harsh, I know, but it's just how I feel.

 

This does a fair job of summing it up. http://music-mix.ew.com/2013/10/01/country-music-identity-crisis/

With the exception of Kacey Musgraves I can't think of a single true country female artist. Its really, really sad. Country used to have some really good female artists, but they have basically all disappeared.

The sad thing is that a lot of the bro-country is coming from guys that can and have made legitimate, good country music. Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan, Blake Shelton, etc are all capable of it but they insist on recording and defending this shit they do for frat boys and sorostitutes. Those people wouldn't know a field if you dropped them in the middle of it or the first thing about even hooking an implement up to a tractor. They have their cute little cookie cutter country scene they think is cool and these guys keep giving them shit songs for their fantasy. Gets real old! Country music isn't supposed to be cool!

 

This cool country music you speak of is what brings in the big money for them. John Mayer can rock a guitar hard, but he makes his money by gently strumming and wooing people with it.

 

ok guys ima need help from some of you ..

Well i recently cleaned out my extra bedroom, if you're willing to bathe in pepto bismol, clip my toenails and shave my buttox weekly we can call it a deal.

 

I'm In

My teeth will be the lawnmower for la buttox........I like my Pepto mixed with Mayonnaise heated up in the microwave for 10 minutes then IT IS ON, toenails.............I will clip the shit out of them while we watch every Max Hardcore flick!

Sound good

 

Take Friday off work!!! Cone to browns and ride.

 

not a fan of country, I usually switch stations or turn off the radio when I hear it come on. I normally listen to npr or 1190 on am radio in the mornings to get news/traffic report. Rush limbaugh cracks me up when he comes on with his outrageous responses. Back in the day I use to listen to whatever pop was on but now I dont as much in my morning commutes in traffic.

 

Quick question for y'all, im about to be relocated "out west" that's as specific as they know haha.

I was going to put in for either Oregon, Colorado, or Washington.
Do y'all like it and also is it a pretty good place for a 23yr old?
Will be relocated for my job.

 

Washington is awesome for the 20-30 crowd. Plenty of outside stuff to do, lively night life.. pretty good natured people. But I've been in the army for 6 years out here so maybe my views are different than a civilians.
