"Well take it from me (and I know you probably will not), but those of us who do make our living in country music think Mutt Lange is a genius who is able to make a record with so much variety and vision...people look to him for guidance into the trends for the next 2 years in our business. If people would have an open mind and support something a little different, we would reach a wider audience and not be in the slump we are in. As far as concert ticket sales, albums, etc., you guys ought to lighten up and pay close attention to Lange, who is thought of as a genius here on 16th Avenue."
