Nashville Star

The new season has begun and apparently I've missed a few episodes. I watched it this morning at mom and dad's house and they were down to 6 or 7. I have one comment on the show so far: Randy Owen of the band Alabama told this one girl that the song she sang - he'd never heard it before and that it was horrible. The song she sang is one that Alison Krauss does and does really well. Judges should be some kind of expert in the music industry. Knowing only the songs that are overplayed on the radio doesn't make you an expert. Randy Owen should either get an education on all types of genres included in the category of country music or not show up next week. At least the American Idol judges, for the most part, act like they've heard the song before. And most of the time, they have heard the songs before. Even Simon from England. Maybe we need to get Bono to judge Nashville Star. He's probably heard of Alison Krauss.
