The Best Western in Stamford CT was pretty clean and when I went down to the desk at 3 AM to bitch about the kids partying next door not only was he awake when I got there, he also did something about it.
Hi^5, Best Western!

But seriously, I'm not sure where the boundary lies between Country and Western.I'm not even sure of what's "Western". Educate me, irul. I know you grew up in the exact area where they met and evolved.
I love it but can't name the slot it should be in

No John Ford? Seriously? I like em all--even the ones with John Wayne--but My Darlin' Clementine is my favorite. Originally Posted by irul&ublo

Robert Earl Keen says he couldn't decide what kind of music he plays until he looked out his motel window and saw the Best Western sign. Originally Posted by iceman
