This photo I took is not posted here to necessarily represent my preference. I enjoy both and I need you to help me if I'm ever caught in this jam (pun wholly intended):

When nobody shows up to my weekday hooteNOONees at Zingo's Cafe patio on Buck Owens Blvd., I take the no-show lemon and make lemonade out of it. My lemonade is new music, a little sour, and a little sweet, as most Krock TM (my style of post-Korn Kern County country rock) music is...
