    Merle Haggard once commented about the current crop of Nashville performers, "This isn't country music. It isn't even good rock and roll". Kenny Chesney is the epitome of that statement. It's puka-bead music for still-in-the-closet frat boys. He sucks, and as his ex-wife declared, "He's a fraud".

  1. The problem with The Road and the Radio is that the songs just aren't very memorable.

    7 This is Chesney doing what he does so very well, and his legions of fans will eat it up. [12 Nov 2005]
  3. Chesney sticks with what he knows best: drinking ("Beer in Mexico"), driving ("Somebody Take Me Home") and raising his glass to everyday heroes ("Who You'd Be Today").
