For the first time in several weeks, I can actually say that I've heard of some of the bands that are coming to Rock Band next week. Unfortunately, I also have to point out that although I've heard of them, I cannot consider myself a fan. What can I say? I just don't go in for country music. Old school bluegrass is fine, but for the most part, country music is for someone else, someone living further south than I do. For fans of the genre, though, there are nine different songs from nine different artists to choose from. Classic names like Reba McEntire and Keith Urban make the cut, as well as some newer acts like Lady Antebellum and Sugarland. Read on for the full list. Yee-haw!
