Country Whuppin’ – Gary Allan Vs. Craig Morgan
September 21, 2012 3:55 PM Two battles in a row, the online votes for Gary Allan have kept him in the game, after the call-in votes but him on the defensive. He picked up his third straight win, knocking off Thomas Rhett, and now he goes for win number four, facing one of the headliners of this weekend’s Rowdy Ridge Music Fest, Craig Morgan.

Livin’ the life of a country song is something Gary Allan knows all about. Over the last decade, his tunes have reflected a darkness of some of the experiences he has encountered. It’s been a couple years since he’s had a song on the charts, and while his new single still has some darkness to it, it seems to be more positive than his recent offerings. Is it enough to win the Whuppin’? That’s your vote and yours alone.

Craig Morgan couldn’t quite get country fans’ attention with his last outing, Corn Star, so he is back quickly with a new single that is a little less innuendo, but still the same down home, small town feel Craig has come to be known for. This Saturday, he might even say that Sturgis, the home of the Rowdy Ridge Music Fest resembles the place he sings about in More Trucks Than Cars.

May 22, 2013 11:55 PM The national Anthem is one of the toughest songs to sing that there is. There have been some great versions and some really bad versions over the years - Rosanne - just sayin'.
