Race would certainly be one of them as would, I suspect, urban-rural (or some variant thereof). <BR/><BR/>An interesting article, nonetheless.

Also the NASCAR connection.

Sure, country music is popular in the South and rural areas. But it is not popular in rural African American areas - it is popular in rural white America. If you go to rural parts of Louisiana, for example, with lots of black folks, they are not listening to country. Generally a lot of the "country music" demographic are fans of NASCAR. What I am trying to say, it's more than just rural/urban/redstate/bluestate. It's also class, race, and a bunch of other factors.Vikrumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06919126590338595719noreply@blogger.com
