    After listening to Tony’s show last night, I have some new favorite songs, Caitlyn Brette’s “House Of The Rising Sun”, Pitchfork’s “Johnny Cash”, Snake Handling Preachers’ “Country Roads”, Anson Carter’s “Put It In Drunk”, Dave Younger’s “Man Of Constant Sorrow”, and anything from Jesse Brand or Buffalo Head. “Get You Some”!!

    Thanks Frank! I did that recording one day when I was testing out what I could do with my new (at the time)recording deck. Every song I have up on Reverbnation and every song I’ve had on Hoss & Tony’s shows were subsequently recorded on that same deck. I’m having a lot of fun and sure do appreciate your comment.

    I caught Tony’s show earlier, and I’ve got to say he’s got some outstanding picks this month! Some of the bonus tunes I just heard should be in this contest, like Snake Handling Preachers “Country Roads”, Dave Younger’s “Man Of Constant Sorrow”, Pitchfork’s “Johnny Cash”, Caitlyn Brette’s “House Of The Rising Sun”, Anson Carter’s “Put It In Drunk” & anything from Jesse Brand or Buffalo Head. “Get You Some!!” (as Tony has been known to say!!)

    The best that I can tell, Dave, is that you, Turd and Cat all just decided that ya’ll need to get a dang room. Geez!

    I hereby make the following sworn statement: “I, Turd Ferguson, have in no way caused the obvious upsurge in voting for Dave Younger and Farnell Cole’s current contest entry “Karaoke King”.

    (Thanks a million Cat, we both love / owe you…)

    Mr. Cudd…while I can appreciate your suggestion about getting a room and all, I can assure you that this would be one time I would NOT invite Turd.

    Turd Ferguson Reply:

    Damn Dave, that really stinks! Life ain’t easy being a Turd…

    Reply

    Dave By God Younger Reply:

    Well, Turd…sorry…but you just ain’t romantic. If I ever DID manage to get a room with Cat (this is all theoretical, by the way…Hoss started this discussion, not me…wonder how long I can keep typing inside parentheses before my 7th grade English teacher rises from the dead and whacks me with a ruler…anyway, Cat is happily in a committed relationship and you well know that I’m very much besotted with my Sweet Sue…now back to our comment) having a Turd in the room would be distracting. I happen to know that Our Dear Cat actually loves you the most and I’d just be a third wheel over on the sofa alone with my thoughts.
    Anyway…between Turd and me and Farnell and Cat, as far as I know, Turd is the only one who’s unattached.

    Turd Ferguson Reply:

    I’m just floating unattached in a porcelain bowl of love… (song title)

    cat Reply:

    LOL…If my man gets wind of Turd I am in big trouble..lol I just want to go on the record that me and Turd are just friends. I am just a dorky fan of that Dave guy who writes some funny stuff. I am a sucker for fun music and Turd comes with the deal. Love you guys:-) Thanks for making my day. Great to hear from you Turd. Don’t be a stranger:-)
    xo, Cat

    Dave By God Younger Reply:

    Turd couldn’t BE no stranger.

    Dave By God Younger Reply:

    Well…Turd, what’s wrong, Bubba…you look flushed! It’s all right…better to be a friend than an enema.

    Dave By God Younger Reply:

    Turd, re: “Floating Unattached in the Toilet Bowl of Love”. Don’t hold your breath. Dang, I hope Farnell doesn’t see this title…he’ll start pestering me again,
    “Why CAN’T we write a song about the Toilet Bowl of Love”? Well shit, Turd..like I told you when Farnell came up with that dang idea about some Karaoke singer..
    “It just ain’t commercial!” Proof positive is that it’s currently #1 on this dang stupid contest.
    On second thought, Turd…DO hold your breath. You shoulda backed off on them pork rinds BEFORE things got this desperate.

    cat Reply:

    My man knows about Turd and the shite is going to hit the fan now. I’m knee deep in doo doo…No enema can cure this impacted situation… Sorry…

    Dave By God Younger Reply:

    Oh Cat..I’m so sorry…I’d be happy to tell your man that Turd ain’t shit to you. Farnell & I would both be happy to do whatever we can to wipe away this stain on your relationship. Turd can’t help the way he feels…reminds me of when cousin Otis came to visit us here in California from up the holler over yonder. He’d never been to the beach before and let’s just say he did not have a beach body and he was whiter than John Huntsman. Well he strolled down the beach and girls was LAUGHIN’ at him…he asked what he could do and I advised him to but a potater down his trunks..I said THAT would get them gals’ attention. Well…he come runnin’ back all upset…the gals was laughing even more…that’s when I realized his problem and told him,
    “Put the potater down the FRONT, stupid!”

    cat Reply:

    LOL.. Thanks Dave, I think this puts it all into perspective. You are a wise man and you’re lucky to have a friend in Turd. He may stink up the place but he means well. I worry about him being all alone. He could have an accident in the bathtub and there would be no one to pull him out until days later when someone smells him floating in the water face down…He really needs to learn which side is up. Just saying:-)

    There is always place in my heart for Turd:-)

    Dave By God Younger Reply:

    I have heard rumors that Hoss is thinking about eliminating Turd. Cat, maybe you can convince him that such a move would surely change the flavor of the show.

    Dave By God Younger Reply:

    Well…Turd sure can be a stinker at times.

    Reply

    cat Reply:

    lol..

    cat Reply:

    I know I shouldn’t encourage him.
    Turd is misunderstood. It breaks my heart to think that Hoss could want such a thing..
    Geezzzz
    Fine.

    I thought I heard Hoss, Tony & Billy talking about dropping the bottom 10 songs from the voting page during Saturday’s show. Did Hoss change that later, after I stpped listening?

    Reply

    Don Cudd (aka Hoss) Reply:

    Yep… that’s what happened. Just before I signed off, I decided that deleting 10 bands from the contest was too much dang work. So I just left it like it is… cuz I can do that, since it’s my dang little station.

    Let’s just see what those bands do with their second life. (There’s probably a 9 Lives of Cat McClean joke in here somewhere, but figuring that out is too much dang work for me too. Ya’ll have at if if you’re so inclined.)

    What happened to dropping 10 songs today?

    Reply

    Dave By God Younger Reply:

    Hoss probably DID drop 10 songs today. Just not any of these.

    Reply

    Dave By God Younger Reply:

    Honestly, after listening to the “bottom” 10…I’d hate to see any of them dropped.

    It was only the top twenty that got played, but all thirty songs stay in the contest.
