This is the nest right?

I never listen to lyrics. I couldn't tell you what the hell my favorite bands are talking about.

His political views don’t really bother me. I love his music. Wish he would come out with an album every year.

Saw her at Jazzfest cannot remember which year. She and her band kicked arse. Blake Mills on guitar blew me away.

“What’ve I Done to Help” released today.

I think I may sit this record out. Maybe it’ll grow on me...

Title is a little whiny but it's actually a catchy tune.

Isbell has always been one of my favorites but I may not be woke enough to spin this new album

He’s been woke since he got sober.

I'll listen to his album and likely go see him again live if he comes close, but I had to quit following him on Twitter. His hate for anyone he disagrees with politically is strong.

His "horsedick" tweet a couple years ago was the last straw for me.

He’s free to express his opinions and we are free to tune him out. He’s a bad business man. He’s alienating himself from a large swath of his original fan base. But, he has to look at himself (and his wife) in the mirror. He’s doing what he feels is right...can’t fault him for that move.

I think the thing that bothers me is most of his wokeness is easily disproved with facts, logic and reason.

Essentially, most of his anger is at literal fiction created by people with agendas.

This is the counter to all the people who say, music has always been political. While that may be true, it's never been more false than the last decade or so.

This right here. And also, the guy who said 50% of titles lead me to believe my fears were justified. This is the first year in the last 5 that I havent bought red rocks tickets for him as soon as they released. Oh well.

His shows used to sell out pretty quick. Not anymore. Get woke go broke.

That’s what I’m saying, alienating any demographic in the entertainment business is not the way to maximize profitability.

New single sucks. He’s done. And is this whole album recorded in a massive cave?

Relative to his other work Nashville Sound sucked too. He’s traded what made him great for what made him woke.
