Nice Find
Ahh, the Dillards. Noticed this year there seemed to be more "stadium" music pumped in over the loud speakers than there were selections from the Pride of the Southland Band.
If they played this, the place would go nuts.
Yee-Haw!
Aint that the Darlin's?
"Now Dooley was a good ol' man..."
Not sure how this stereotype fits this particular Dooley. Kind of makes my teeth itch.
Well, both.
The Darlin's are the Dillard's.
As for stereotypes, I'm not eager to go looking for all things shiny in California again. Let them play "Goin' Back to Cali" at USC, I could stand to hear a little bluegrass from the mountains of which the stadium sits at the foot.
Love it!
Love it!

I like the Rocky Mountain states as well. Went to a bluegrass show at the Targhee Ski resort a few years back.
I suppose they could like our regional music more than the regional folks do these days.
I was simply trying to support the team and good music, didn't know that made me a stereotypical hillbilly.
I just can't get past
I just can't get past Denver Pile pretending to blow in a jug. Different strokes, I guess.

Just so long as they don't play Salty Dog. It always makes me cry.
