Show dog records

Oh now I see, you have those Oklahoma trailer house blues cause Toby moved on up some notches that you cant reach and never will and it hurts so bad, cause it shoulda been you right? Tell is where to listen to that rate talent that you possess and we might forgive your insane jealousy. INDK January 17, pm. He always came across as super arrogant to me. Kevin Davis January 17, pm. I disagree. The 20th Century Masters collection is a fine example of Toby Keith at his finest.

There are even several ballads, as was common at the time. Without Toby Keith and Kenny Chesney from roughly onwards, bro country would have been impossible. Well, how many of those albums were any damn good? Dude had no checks and balances on himself and it showed. A lot of those albums were mediocre to bad, with a lot of filler that you could tell Keith and his writing buddies just went through the motions to write.

Toby stopped looking at his music as something he did for love and instead it became a cold, hard business where he had no incentive not to crank out music as fast as possible to sell to his fans before his star faded.

Plus, he burned so many bridges in Nashville that when his career headed south, no one was willing to give him another shot like they were with Tim McGraw. Donna January 18, pm. Thank you I have been a TK fan for years and he still draws the people at his concerts!

I think Toby will wind down soon ; I know he said he wants to be involved with his expanding family! He made his money and like everything else ; You cant be on top for ever.

I love him his voice is fabulous and he still is loved by his fans! All the rest of you are irrelevant! Go back to sharing Pepe memes on 4chan. James Hooker January 18, am.

DJ January 17, pm. Jessie with the long hair January 17, pm. He has one too?! I saw George Strait is hawking one. Sammy Hagar has a successful line. Deb Blumenstein January 17, pm. Toby has released some poorly written songs, but he has also put out good songs ex. What chaffs, though, is that he gets virtually NO airplay. We can request his music day in and day out. The radio program managers decide whose music gets played — over and over and over again.

The DJs have no say and seemingly, no pull on behalf of the listeners. What a crappy system! No one outworks this man. Just ask TK Kimbrell. Luckyoldsun January 18, pm. Radio has treated him pretty well.

Biscuit January 17, pm. Music labels open and close all the time. He started Show Dog in after DreamWorks, a much larger mega label, folded. CD and download sales are increasingly a bad business model so you could argue Toby played his cards right. He went from working as a derrick hand to being a multi-millionaire with 20 number one hits and over 60 Billboard charting songs. I stopped going to his concerts in 05 when he added horns hey! Starting in 05 was when his shows turned Vegas-y.

But, I did really like him up to that point. His rise from perennial opening act to stardom felt organic and his shows were a ton of fun. Remember the Bus Songs? J Burke January 17, pm. TK had a lot of good songs early in his career, did a lot of shows for the Military and truly has one of the great voices in Country.

Also no scandals. CountryKicksAss January 17, pm. Someone needs to do more research before writing a title like this. His label has restructured before, it is called looking at ways to save money.

Toby wanted his own label so he would never have to work for anyone else again. His business plan was always different than Borchetta.

He knew Borchetta would succeed and he also believed in Taylor Swift before she really took off. It was genius that he kept a stake in that label and still makes money from his holding.

Headlining festivals pays good dinero. The bars that have his name on them pay him , he does not have to operate them. The Vegas bar is over 10 years old and is going strong. There are 3 bars in OK plus one in Boston.

He owns a horse farm. He races horse for fun and some of them make good money. His songs are still very relevant, his song catalogue and publishing rights, all of his ventures combined, truly remarkable. The only person saying Toby Keith closed up shop is you. Do more research. CountryKicksAss January 18, am. Well Trigger, your article is titled Rise and fall, there is no fall. Just changes being made.

And if you consider successful long running bars a dumpster fire….. Fire as in thriving and alive is the reality. OMFS88 January 18, pm. Louis Park, Minnesota have all closed as well. CountryKicksAss January 18, pm. Yo, I am not a Bro, the bars I mentioned are the ones still open and successful. The others were under a different operator that you are mentioning. This thing was pretty much built before TK pulled out.

The good news is a local company American Eagle stepped in and are trying to run in as a country bar — Tequila Cowboy.

Half of the people posting on here do not have a clue as to how and why records get played on the Billboard Charts. Can you really follow music for decades and never catch on? Scott S. January 18, am. It seems he is playing not for political endorsement of a candidate, but because he truly wants to support America. Stringbuzz January 18, am.

Trigger January 18, am. What this means is that I cannot mention any artist that has any ties to the political season any more without people wild-eyed assuming there is a political agenda behind it. Stringbuzz January 18, pm. I understand taking advantage of the latest buzz.. To me this is all old news on Toby Kieth. You are calling out my credibility for posting something in an underhanded manner. These people accusing you of trying to score a big story because of Keith playing the inauguration are dense.

I have read your articles for years. I second Tommy. I scrolled ALL the way down to see that he basically took the words from my mouth. Trigger, the bar franchises have different operators. I was discussing the ones I mentioned that are still open and successful. Nunn, who is certainly one of my favorite Texas music artists. Pete Marshall January 18, pm. Show Dog Nashville has not been a straight up label but they had desent artists on that label.

Joe left and Trace left but the label went downhill fro there. Bill T. LeRoy II December 15, am. Whats a fair price for letting other potential producers as well as entertainers help in negotiating fair and somewhat common deals.. I understand that I am more than 2 years past when it was released but I wanted to state my opinion anyway. He was looking out for his family which is what comes across in his music. Toby Keith sings songs about real life and the working man and that is why he has the fans that he does.

Just like a lot of artists still making music in the industry today. Toby had a great run, maybe he will be able to come back and produce more hit singles and maybe his career is just about over. Who knows? He made his dream a reality and now he has every right to do as he pleases.

That is my opinion. Your email address will not be published. Notify me of follow-up comments via e-mail. Duck Hunting with Cody Jinks. No political angle to this story should be inferred. Did we just read the same article? How do you like me now?! He flamed out at some point over the course of the last few years. I have to admit liking some of his earlier music. Not any more, though. Smart business or lucky beyond belief? Sometimes the line is hard to see. I did a quick google search and everyone has an alcohol brand now.

Our Trump-ed. As for his record label, interesting story, even if the timing is a bit suspect. Keep writing, Trigger. Thanks Tommy. Leave a Reply Cancel reply Your email address will not be published.
