Now, at risk of getting torn up for my taste in music, I heard that Diamond Rio is coming to Seoul to do shows at the base. Can anyone check those out...

I used to goto the Merritt Mountan Music Festival, and various other big country acts when I was home. Im not a gun toting, monster truck driving, full on redneck but Yearning for a little taste of home....

Is it only open for soldiers..??

if you want to go to the show, you start walking your way, i'll start walking mine and we'll meet in the middle neath that old georgia pine.


...and, uh, you bring the tickets.

Why should you be embarassed about being a Diamond Rio fan? I listened to them and every other country sound on the airwaves when I was a teenager in the early 1990s. I'm not even embarassed to say that at that age I would have been just as happy to throw on an old Charley Pride LP. I still do it. I didn't care who knew it either...although I grew up in a pretty rural area that had its share of country music fans.

Music taste is such an individual thing. No one should be expected to conform to the majority tastes just to make others feel better.

Go to the Diamond Rio concert if you can!!!! I'd be there too if I was still in Korea.

What's that Oak Ridge Boys song that goes something like "giddee up / om papa mow mow"?

I want to see them, too, but yeah, you can't get on base unless you know somebody. I'd pay somebody to be my "friend" so I can see them... =)

I heard if you pay the US chamber of commerce, you can get base access. I know a guy that did that just so he could take a shortcut across base instead of fighting the traffic around Yongsan. Cut his commute time down quite a bit.
