Yes.

That's good coming from Donny Johnson

Yo, William !
Lin and me watched the re-runs of last years Creol Country and agree there were one or two "suspect bands" but on the whole
the show is quite good,at least the acts are actually playing not like the majority on "Hot Country" who ain't even got
leads plugged into their guitars ! believe me, I ain't knocking the show ,after all it's country music !
I would'nt say Billy was a grumpy old man just um, ugh, well, argh, where am I ? what am I doing writing here ?
All the best from a fire ravaged Corfu !!

define a band? well when my dad started played in the early 50s, he played in what was known as a band, and there were 18 of them, in the late 50s/early 60s groups were the "new thing" not considered as bands, but then some groups added a small brass section, were then known as showbands, then groups became known as bands, then with the advent of drum machines, sequencers and backing tracks, you end up with a "one man band" and of course one man is not a band, its just a distortion of language, i am playing with a six piece, now that is a band, not some singer, with his downloaded karaoke backing tracks, sadly though, he is earning a lot more at music than any of us "real musicians"

I would agree with that Ken, except to add, i would rather work with a drum machine than a bad drummer
