[Closed] Country Music Walrus

[jp liz v1]

Would ye be interested in a country music walrus, with not many categories maybe 2, 3 or 4 only

The three categories are : - 

• An original country music song
  
• A cover of a country music song
  
• And lastly for lols as he is playing here a Garth Brooks song, can even be a cover of a Garth Brooks song song

Depends, are you going to rank countries or music from different countries.

I'm up for it, been awhile since we've had a walrus.

[E.N.]

Depends, are you going to rank countries or music from different countries

I assumed it was country music
I barely know the first thing about it, but I think there's plenty here that do

Yes I did mean country music, apologies for the confusion

Haha...well that makes sense, not sure what I was thinking there, however in that case...

[jp liz v1]

@Kol   even Bon Jovi dabbled

[Kol]

Yeah that Bon Jovi country era didn't go down too well in our house.

Ah sure look, if you build it I'll give it a go.

I would be. About time I start back into signing up for games now that work isn't as hectic.

[Spears]

I could try it out @jp liz v1 but it will have to be over the weekend because I haven't a clue, and it will take A LOT of time for me to research songs

[Zaph]

Sorry Liz, don't know enough about country to be able to offer anything for a walrus.

[Necro]

I'll play but we're still waiting on your first Walrus Liz

[RSOAPS]

...that's a yes from me

[Wichita Lineman]

[Butty Brennan]

I'll play. I crash and burn in the normal music related games so maybe country will be luckier for me.

[Jluv]

Haven't played a walrus before but I'll give it a go...

You might do well Butty if I play, because I'll probably do as good in this game as I'd do in a Yodelling walrus 

[jp liz v1]

The categories are

An original country music song

A cover of a country music song

And lastly for lols as he playing here a Garth Brooks song, can even be a cover of a Garth Brooks song

Just 3 categories so pm / dm please your choices

( BTW if I can find my notes I will continue my original first walrus maybe a category reveal later tonight )

[RSOAPS]

And lastly for lols as he playing here a Garth Brooks song, can even be a cover of a Garth Brooks song

On second thoughts, given the inclusion of the above category, I'm out...

[jp liz v1]

Go on @Rachel Stevens on a Pogo Stick even a cover of Garth will do and you are a good picker

Nah, I think Garth Brooks is one of the reasons people who've not listened to much Country don't give Country Music a chance, so on principal I just couldn't. He's essentially a glorified pub singer who got lucky and made it to the big leagues, which doesn't mean people can't or shouldn't enjoy his music, but not a musician worth celebrating in my opinion...

[jp liz v1]

Yes a lot of good undiscovered low key country artists, Brooks is a big name as he was one who crossed over and made it big like Shania Twain and Taylor Swift but Johnny Cash was as big as Elvis at one time before all of them

No probs @Rachel Stevens on a Pogo Stick I do get your Brooks issue, marmite

I do like The Shires which I think you introduced me from a previous walrus entry

[RSOAPS]

Ah look, I'll probably cave in and end up entering anyway, I'll try and find a creative workaround for that problematic category, I just needed to have my thoughts on Brooks on the record...

[DejaBoo]

Rach, maybe instead of focusing on Garth as entertainer, find one of his song someone else did better (it's not hard to do!)

I've not been to see him in concert, but given the amount of pyrotechnics Sir Brooks employs to "entertain," I assume his performances are more smoke and mirrors, rather than substance. Garth makes it hard for people to enjoy his music - I am not really familar with much of Garths music since he always refused to share his music on youtube, citing snobbish artistic licence about his audience must properly listen to his whole album or nothing (so, nothing it is, no bother at all!) ...and selfish greed about youtube not giving him enough (like he is dirt poor and can't afford to share with fans, lol). ....That ego of his, like he single handedly created country music for the masses, just no.

I'm actually really just glad someone else round these parts gets where I'm coming from... You've roped me back in Deja. 

Will we have a couple of days to get entries in for this Liz? I'm off to the Yungblud gig tomorrow and then have my nephew's christening on Saturday, so may not have a chance to make selections until Sunday at the earliest...

[RSOAPS]

By the way Liz, you should edit the categories into your OP... Will make it easier to get people to play...

[jp liz v1]

I will keep open for a week or so, no rush

Enjoy @Rachel Stevens on a Pogo Stick

[Spears]

I'm off to the Yungblud gig tomorrow 

I'm soooo jealous! 






Didn't even know they were playing over here. 

I'd say that will be some night! Hope you have a great time.

I'm looking forward to it alright... It's the 23d gig I'll have gone to this year (living my best life with all the gigs these days  ) and 23 is my lucky number, so I'm hoping that means it'll be the best one yet, and they've all been great so far...

I'll be throwing some pics of it up on my Instagram afterwards, as posting pics from gigs is pretty much all I use Instagram for these days, if anyone is interested in following my gig going adventures... www.instagram.com/cian.taaffe/

I know, your a lucky ducky alright!

I need to get my shit together and start going to more concerts.

I'll try not take over Liz's coun try thread anymore, just wanted to say I hope you have a great night. But I'm sure you will.

Yungblud have so much energy, I'd say they will begreat 

[Butty Brennan]

I'm in.

[Necro]

Yeehaw Pardners let's move out to the hoe down!!

By that I mean, I'm in. And treated the Garth Brooks category with the respect and reverance it deserves

[RSOAPS]

Couldn't sleep, so got my selections PM'd in...



The Tale Of How I Overcame My Hatred of Garth Brooks and Found A Decent Song

[RSOAPS]

I hope you have a great night. But I'm sure you will.

Yungblud have so much energy, I'd say they will begreat 

It was absolutely unreal, quite possibly may have been my favourite gig of all time, Yungblud was superb as expected, but the energy and craic and respect from the crowd elevated it to a completely different level.

That's bittersweet for me to hear 

I'm delighted to hear you had such a good night .

I wouldn't have expected anything less from them. They are a fantastic band. 

But your description of the night- well it doesn't get much better than that does it!
