Yes, it’s Country Music Association (CMA) awards time again so of course that means it’s also time for the 2nd Annual Honky Tonk Junkie Music Awards. My approach to the award process is quite a bit different then that of our mainstream counterparts. First of all, there are no nominations, only winners. There is none [...]
It’s hard to make a list of companies in this category and prioritize them because they are all equally evil so here they are in no particular order. Live Nation Entertainment/Ticketmaster. You can’t go to a big concert or show of any kind in this country without getting your tickets through them. I can’t believe [...]
A note to music artists of all genres: I don’t want to come off like I’m complaining even though I suppose I am a little. I love all you artists on HonkyTonkJunkie.com Radio but I have a few issues with some of you. I spend a lot of time searching for music. Initially I used [...]

I went on a hunt for a CD recently and the experience left me depressed. My girlfriend Jennie’s birthday was coming up and I had just heard Carolyn Wonderland’s Miss Understood online. I knew Jennie would love it but since I discovered Carolyn’s music three days before her birthday, I decided that in order to [...]
I get a lot of free music from artists who would like to get some air time on HonkyTonkJunkie.com. That’s one of the perks of having a radio station. So what would make me drop everything and dig out one of my much-abused credit cards to buy music online? 77 El Deora, that’s what. I [...]
