Johnny Cooper @ Billy Bob's Texas

I recently heard Johnny Cooper's new single "Hot Mess" and I must say it's...different. Back in highschool,  I was a huge fan of his because not only was he part of my first experience at Billy Bob's Texas in Fort Worth, but my friends and I actually got to go hang out with him in his hometown of Wichita Falls a few weeks after the concert. If you have never been to Billy Bob's I would highly recommend it. It has a true country feel and is located in the historic Stockyards.

Anyway, my friends and I decided we needed to go as soon as we all turned 18. So in February of our senior year we loaded up and drove the hour and a half to Fort Worth to see Johnny Cooper and dance the night away. We had an absolute blast two-stepping with all the old men (we got there early because we were young and inexperienced) and actually got to meet Johnny before the show. The thing is, this was back when his music was actually considered country. Hot mess really isn't a bad song, but it is nothing like Johnny Cooper's old sound.

I have to admit that I still love to jam out to "Texas To You" when I'm on the road. It's catchy lyrics are fun to sing my heart out to.
