And today Eric Church wears sunglasses on stage as well. So I guess it works to portray the image these singers want and sometimes it works out pretty well for them!

I became a Hank Williams Jr. fan back when I heard "Dixie on my Mind" played on WBKR back in 1981. I have seen him in concert seven times, and that man has put out a lot of great music over the years.

I'm looking forward to his new album "Old School - New Rules" coming out the day before my 40th birthday!

Check out this new song "That Ain't Good" a song from his new album hitting store July 10th!
