It would probably be worse if he actually had it plugged in.
At least he'd be trying, if you're not willing to perform you're music live then why are people paying to see him?

is it like this at every concert? im pretty sure i've seen him play before
couldn't it have just come unplugged and he didnt realize it/didnt want to make it obvious and just kept playing through it?
is there a video of this somewhere?

unoriginal beachy music poorly fashioned
As far as Kenny, I've seen other musicians do this as well. Yes it's cheesy.

Very doubtful. If you are actually playing, you would hear a loud clunk when it came unplugged. They also don't tend to fall out. The jacks are pretty well-fit on a decent guitar. I doubt he is holding (not playing) an el cheapo.

It was pretty damned original when Buffett started doing it 40 years ago...
He has definitely fallen into the "make money while I can" rut, but he had some good tunes. I'm guessing your experience with JB is centered around Songs You Know By Heart. I still love "The Night I Painted the Sky." It's a good tune.

Then why the frick does he have it on stage??
He, like 99% of other artists, is just strumming rhythm. George Strait just stands on stage with his guitar. Never actually plays it.
Chill out

Yes.
I've seen Kenny play acoustic live. He's not incredible but he can play guitar.

------------------
I've seen this at George's shows. He leans back and strums like he is actually playing with the Ace in the Hole band.

lol you needa stop going to country concerts buddy, you're terribly misinformed on what an "artist" is if you think they all just strum rhythm

Name one mainstream country artist that is doing more than strumming rhythym when playing with a full band.
Besides Keith and Paisley

One again...for the people who obviously don't know much about live music. The volume on his guitar is so low you can barely hear it.
I've seen it many times. I've seen a guy 2 songs into a set and realize he wasn't plugged in.
Posted on 7/25/12 at 5:37 pm to treble hook
Zac Brown definitely plays more than rhythm
But Im just saying this picture isnt fair without a video...what if his stagehand walked it out to him without it plugged in and he didnt realize it right away...so he just had to play along with it for one song
I just dont think KC routinely holds an unplugged guitar just to "look cool" on stage or anything, it was probably a mistake

this doesn't happen at big time pro concerts like a KC one with tons of crew and sound/gear techs working around the clock.
what shows has this happened at?

There's a lot of reasons for the suck, and though that picture brings me f#%king deep sadness, while emblematic, it's not the cause.
Plenty of artists of all genres have hid behind the stunt guitar. I've seen Kenny play some passable live rhythm, but doubt anyone in his band has much of his guit in their ears even when he does get accidentally plugged in.
