The only voice I ever heard that sounded good live was Faron Young. He was on the Porter Wagoner Show and sounded just like on his recordings. Everybody else sounds awful unless it's a recording. Given a choice, I'd prefer 1,000,000 times to 1 to just listen to the CD over ever going to a concert.
As far as our governor, it won't be much better with Mike DeWine (DeWhine) next time around. He might lose. Might end up with Strickland or even worse. Oh well, Ohio will be all right anyway. It takes a middling politician to win this state. They can't do anything. It's all for show.
