Florida/Georgia line, jason aldean
although you may think so...these two are not one in the same as you suggest...FGL is not very talented...I really don't dig much of their stuff even though I'm pretty eclectic...Aldean on the other hand does have some talent ....I think you are throwing out canvasses that make your comments sound ignorant...and I know you are not...and the argument about "bro" country gets laughed at by those who listen to country because just like the comments that all country is about dogs dying and wives leaving and beer is ignorant and usually just discarded because it just simply not true...you seem like a guy who likes some good stuff...you obviously like Floyd...and I do too....but what if somebody who probably doesn't listen to Floyd as much as you do says that they suck and that all they are is a drugged out psychedelic jam band that is weird and washed up?...it would irritate you...its the same thing...people have different tastes and different music is good for different things....when I drink beer at the river...im listening to easy going fun crowd music...if I'm by myself outside grilling meat or in my truck on a long drive, I'm listening to something that I can delve into...become one with and learn from...point is...it is ok to like Jason Isbell and listen to Aldean imho...
ultimately I have no issues with the guitar being hung in BM...its just a guitar

Good points, I agree with your thought process. If someone said that about floyd, I would realize that the only floyd they're familiar with is probably 2 or 3 songs from the radio. They probably wouldn't realize the sheer brilliance of the band, and appreciate the clear proression they made as a band from the early psychadelic days where they just jammed into a musical power form the early 70s through the mid 80s.
I think this is a bit different though. The brantley gilbert songs I listened to in college are the same kinda songs I hear today. I haven't heard much variation out of aldean either. Now, I readily and freely admit I don't have all their albums and haven't heard every song they've ever made. I realize FGL is different than the rest, in a much shittier way. They are a joke and should be laughed out of the industry. Aldean does appear to have some talent...although I think my generalization about his music does ring somewhat true. And I never said you were in the wrong for enjoying his music a the lake or on the grill or whatever...music is subjective and you like what you like.
My main point, which I stand by, was that the reason him and others as SO popular is because it's easy. It appeals to a mass audience using simple stereotypes for the most part, just like big bang theory. Nothing wrong with that, just saying.
ignoring all the above though, since it's just opinion that doesn't mean anything...I don't think the guitar should be there as it has nothing to do with UGA athletics, unless you want to make the VERY LOOSE connection that the concert was played in a place that one of our teams plays. But there's been concerts at stegeman before, why no relics from there? BM should be a place to display our athletic achievements, accomplishments, and awards. A guitar from a concert that just happened to be in the stadium doesn't belong. The music building would be an absolutely perfect spot for it, no reason why it shouldn't go there.

I read your posts as if you are a guy who has used his share of substances. You have the whole "train of thought" aspect down with all the ellipses.
It makes me value your input on music more, for some reason.
