I just saw Breitbart reported on this... Seems to me, and I'm not 100% positive, that Currington was on tour with Tim and got booked to do this without realizing what it was really all about. I could be wrong and it could just be he's only backing out after the back lash.Quote:

And he can change his performance name to the Chixie Dicks.Quote:

It really hasn't been a secret that Tim McGraw is a supporter of hard leftist statism. He is a studio cowboy charlatan who is part of the hollywood elite. I believe Paisley is another one.
Whatever. "Country" music sucks. Driving a late-model Silverado and slapping a Browning sticker on it doesn't make you a cowboy. Modern "country" is pop music for city slickers who don't think they can pull off the hipster lifestyle, so they buy a pair of Wranglers and a flannel shirt and pretend they're from the sticks.
Give me bluegrass or true western.

True Country isn't Western at all. The vast majority of real Country Music has it's origins east of the Mississippi River. Same with Bluegrass.
ETA: Texas breaks this norm...Bob Wills, and all...but a LOT of early classic country is far from "western".
Further reflection would have me add eastern Kansas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas. West of the ole Mississip, for sure, and maybe that's where the "Western" designation comes from, but that was some time ago.
