I’m very into ‘Clutch’, ‘Scissorfight’ and ‘Down’, and although they’re very different I also really like trashy rock and roll such as the band ‘Nashville Pussy’. Can anyone recommend anything else I might like as I’ve done these bands to death and I’m finding it difficult to locate any similar bands. I have wide ranging tastes but I’m looking for something similar to the aforementioned bands.

Straight out of Nashville, here’s your next big star
He don’t write the songs he sings, but he knows the words by heart.
Wears a cowboy hat, and some tight blue jeans,
And he struts around the stage like he’s the coolest thing you’ve ever seen.

Oh you gotta love him!

He looks like a super model, knows how to strike a pose
And he don’t mind the makeup, as long as no one knows.
And he’s got that crooked grin, and talks with a southern drawl,
Acts like Toby Keith, but sounds a lot like Tim McGraw

But if he’s country I’ll kiss your ass,
And throw all my Willie Nelson records in the trash.
He’s the same old **** in a slightly different bag,
But if he’s country, well then country’s pretty bad.

I don’t watch CMT
Naw that **** makes me sick.
And that ole Kenny Chesney,
What a hypocrite.

He’ll swear he’s country,
But he lives in the Caribbean.
Sings all about the islands now,
What happened to the Tennessean

Aw if he’s country ill kiss your ***
Throw all my Johnny Cash records in the trash
He’s all about image cuz image pays the bucks,
Aw but if he’s country, well then country really *****.

What happened to the outlaws,
Who weren’t afraid to cross the line.
What happened to the workin’ man,
Who sang the truth about their troubled lives.

I was raised in Georgia, in a one red light town.
And my daddy picked guitar in every honky tonk around.
And he taught me all the good stuff,
That solid country gold, but now I love it all from hip-hop to rock and roll

And to thank country, well I don’t give a damn
My daddy taught me to be own kinda man
He said “Son you don’t have to go along with the crowd” aw
So if I ain’t country then I’m pretty frickin proud
Oh Well I don’t need their labels anyhow

Bluegrass music is an offshoot of the country and western musical genre. As with country music, bluegrass has its foundation in the music of Ireland, Scotland and England. If bluegrass is centered on one area of the USA, it is Appalachia. The people are of Irish and Scottish descent and in their music instrumental virtuosity is not a poor relation of singing. In most forms of popular music the instruments back up the vocalist, but in bluegrass the vocals and the instruments are all just members of the team. In a bluegrass band everybody is expected to take a solo just as they do in a jazz band. The instruments associated with bluegrass music are acoustic guitar, banjo, fiddle and bass.

The main thing to remember if you want to learn to play bluegrass scales is to learn some tunes. That is what music is made of. The scales are just the foundation of melodies and you need to be able to break out of the confinement of your scale as soon as possible. The other thing learning tunes is good for is developing right hand speed. As you can tell from listening to bluegrass music, speed flatpicking is essential.

If you are interested in learning bluegrass music and you would like to start by learning scales, start with the major scales in the open position. Do not bother with going up the neck of the guitar yet because learning your scales in the open position is crucial for playing bluegrass solos. Learn the scale in the key of G first, then C, D, F, A and E. Learn the keys one at a time so that you are comfortable with one before you go onto the next key. As with all musical learning, the more work you put into it at the beginning, the greater the rewards and the quicker your progress.

When you sit down each day to practice your scales, spend five or ten minutes going up and down the scale alternately. Then experiment a little. Try playing the scale by skipping some notes or playing the notes randomly. You need to become very familiar with the major scale because bluegrass solos rely on major keys. To get further into bluegrass guitar scales, find examples of the major pentatonic and the major diatonic scale.

 

Another basic scale that is important in bluegrass, blues, country and rock music is the minor pentatonic scale. It has five notes, should be learned in all positions on the guitar neck in all keys, and has been used for lead solos by every guitar player known to man. It is also popularly known as the blues scale. If you do not know much about modes, do an internet search to get some idea of the difference between a scale and a mode. If you have trouble understanding the theory, do not worry, just try playing.

The mixolydian mode is a good “scale” to practice on also:

  E—————————————————————-0—–1—–3

  B————————————————-0—–1—–3—————

  G—————————————-0—-2——————————-

  D————————0—–2—–3—————————————-

  A——–0—–2—-3———————————————————

  E–3————————————————————————–

 

To get more in-depth knowledge of bluegrass guitar scales, some great bluegrass guitar players to listen to are Vassar Clements, Doc Watson, Darol Anger, Clarence White, Norman Blake and Sam Bush.

The Commonwealth of Kentucky is known for its magnificent caves, longest navigable bodies of waters, the two largest man-made lakes that can be found in the east of the Mississippi river, bourbon distilleries, blue grass music, and highly-diverse environment rich in natural resources. More importantly, Kentucky is known as the “Bluegrass” State, as the region is abundant with bluegrass, may it be in lawns or in the pastures.

Thoroughbred horses are also one of the most famous features of Kentucky. With pastures covered with plenty of bluegrass, horse breeding and horse racing became one of the main attractions of this region. Kentucky is known to have produced the best race horses breed in the renowned horse ranches all over the state.

If interested in setting up your own ranch, Kentucky is one of the places most conducive to breeding thoroughbred horses. The region has several areas suitable for starting a farm or ranch. There are a number of available farm and grazing lands are abundant with bluegrass.

Accordingly, here are several factors one must consider before setting up a horse farm or ranch, whether it is for leisure or profit. They are the farm land, grazing land, breed of horses, ranch planning, fencing, labor, capital and time.

Farm or Ranch Planning

The primary thing to do is to lay down an extensive plan. Careful planning leads to a well-organized ranch or farm. There is a basic difference between a ranch and a farm. A farm usually breeds horses for farm work while ranches breed and train horses for races. Write down all the things that are needed in setting up the farm, including the startup cost and possible future expenses such as maintenance. If the budget is limited, the ranch may not be in full form in a short period of time. This is better than sacrificing the quality of the farm and the horses it will breed.

Increase Knowledge in Farm or Ranch Management

Knowledge is an important factor in ranch or farm management. Learn the basics in breeding horses, such as the diet and different types of sickness together with their symptoms. Read books and other materials that tell about horses and proper breeding techniques. Attend seminars on ranch or farm management. It is also an advantage to seek the help of those experts in horse breeding and ranch management.

Find a Suitable Place to Construct the Farm or Ranch

The ranch should be situated in land near pastures. It should be large enough to include a barn, stable, horse exerciser, round pen and outdoor riding area. There should be a road accessible to high traffic areas such as the barns and paddock gates. It is also advisable to place the stable in elevated places for proper drainage and convenience. It is easier to cart a wheel barrow full of manure and other waste in a downward slope. Accordingly, firstkentuckyfsbo offers an extensive list of available lands suitable for setting up a farm or ranch in the Kentucky area.

Fence the Whole Ranch

The whole perimeter of the land should be fenced, which should be periodically maintained. This may entail extra cost but it is a necessary expenditure. In the event that horses got out of the stable especially at night, it is necessary to prevent them from ending up in the streets. Other accidents might also happen when the horses roam out of the farm. The fences will keep the horses inside the farm even if they got out at night. However, the fence should be checked from time to time in case repair is needed.

Importance of Grazing Land



Horses should not be confined in stables. They are social animals and needs to be let out in the open. They need to interact with other horses. A pasture abundant with grass is very beneficial to the proper growth of horses.

Safety of Horses



Also, a vital consideration in starting a horse ranch is the safety of the horses. The farm must have a good lay-out that will ensure precautions to prevent accidents. Regular consultation with a veterinarian is also advisable. The whole ecosystem around the farm should also be protected. Birds and frogs are natural predators of flies, which are considered as pests to horses.

Have Enough Farm Hands

Last, but not the least, have enough number of laborers. Horse breeding is a labor-intensive endeavor. Although this is probably one of the main source of expenditure, having adequate number of farm hands will ensure proper breeding and maintenance of the farm. There are too many chores around the farm that it will not be economical to do all of it without help. Maintaining a ranch is a serious business, even if it is not established for profit. Necessary steps should be taken to ensure the ranch or farm’s proper development.

I listen to country music and people seem to treat me differantly just because I dont listen to “Normal” music.Like people tell me “Hey you got any banjo music on there”.It just pisses me off when people make statements like that or like my friend who can play the ukulele told me “Here i can teach you a redneck song.”To me country music is normal.Are they ignorant or closed minded or what makes them talk like that?
