19. I sent the lyrics for that as an example for the worst possible lyrics
Anyone who could write lyrics that stupid - not just the sentiment, but the expression, the rhymes, the lack of logic, the stupid words, the laziness - anyone like that would never come anywhere close to making it in music. If his name wasn't Hank Williams.

Move it on over, Hank.

23. it's a shame.
I saw Hank Jr. back in the 60s when he was still traveling with his dad's band and singing his dad's songs. That was a good show... his current work, not so much.

9. I thought a drunk homeless guy had grabbed the mic
Man he sucks. That was one of the worst renditions of the National Anthem I have ever heard. And Hank Jr., lay off the Grecian Formula on your beard, no one is buying it.

16. Hank is no Bruce
Edited on Mon Nov-03-08 01:02 PM by MoonAndSun
Just go home Hank,

All Bruce needs is his voice and guitar and he can outsing this tired old hack anytime of day and night.

21. Has he done a McCain-Palin version of...
"Whiskey Bent And Hell Bound?"

Just wondering. That should tickle the Fundie base.

25. He's on stage in a freaking Derick Thomas Kansas City Chief jersey and a cowboy hat...
All that's missing is the zubaz pants and a cold Bud light.

That's Missouri redneck haute couture (sic) right there my friends.

26. The talent skipped a generation in that family.
Does anyone know if Hank III is a Republican?
