So Many Amazing Country Artists Performing at the Minnesota State Fair!

Soo I was getting super excited for the State Fair and I somehow managed to find a way to get even more excited when I remembered that there are going to be a ton of amazing artists at this years fair! The question becomes who to choose. I'm leaning towards Toby Keith (a 9.0 on the hottie scale) and Reba.

Okay so I'm a little biased towards the country singers, but here's the full line up to choose from.

Best albums of 2008

My next few blogs are going to a "Best of 2008." Please comment and let me know if I forgot anything on these next few blogs. This one is what I think were the best Albums of 2008. My personal favorite would definitely have to be 'Love on the Inside' by Sugarland. During the last few years they have become one of my favorite bands and I love almost everything they release. A close second was 'Fearless' by Taylor Swift. Taylor yet again released an album with great boyfriend/break-up songs that are so much fun to sing along with. The next three all tie for third in my book cause all three albums have amazing country songs on them that raced up the charts this year. To start out with is 'Learn to live' by Darius Rucker, then 'Lady Antebellum' by Lady Antebellum, and last but not least 'Play' by Brad Paisley. I won't leave out the two Greatest hits albums released this year by Dierks Bentley and Rascal Flatts. All of there songs on those two albums bring back so many memories. If the albums of 2009 are half as great as the 2008 albums it will be a very good year to look forward too!
