Re: What are your top 10 favorite artists right now?

I think Cameronkl7 and I need to get together and jamm. 

Anywhere near the beach in NC Cam?  Or a trout stream up in the mountains?  Either way works good for me.  But we've definitely got to jam on some Buffett and Chesney.  The Chesney song about valuing the passage of time is the only I do as a reasonably straight cover I like it so well.  If I weren't buzzing from these paint fumes, I'd remember the name of it.

Re: What are your top 10 favorite artists right now?

I find it hard to stop at 10 so maybe it's ok to do 10 more

James Taylor
Willie Nelson
Allman Bro's
Marshall Tucker
Keith Urban
Rolling Stones
Randy Travis
Hank Williams Sr.
Bob Segar  "I know Topdown hates that one"
Doc Watson

I'm sure I could do many more though.

Zurf....I'm located almost dead in the center of North Carolina, not real far from the Mountains "Blueridge"
and a little futher to the coast, though I do know a few good fishin holes around here, and I love building a fire at night while camping or just in my yard sitting around it at night, just an old country boy here.

Re: What are your top 10 favorite artists right now?

Backyard picking works for me too.  Excepting Bob Seger (on whom I overdosed while living in Michigan) I can't argue with your second ten picks either. 

How about we toss some Travis Tritt in there?
