3 Chords & the Truth: BOOM!

Pop! went the firecracker.

Fffffffft! went the bottle rocket.

BOOM! went the stuff that draws the cops.

It's the weekend before the Fourth of July, and this week's edition of 3 Chords & the Truth is a blast, too. Only it won't attract cops like cow patties attract flies. Unless, of course, good music is illegal where you live.

In that case, you're hosed.

The Big Show compromises on music for no jurisdiction.

NOW, y'all go on and enjoy the program. I'm gonna see how much I can blow up good without attracting the long arm of the law. Then again, maybe I can blow off the long arm of the law.

Because that's how we celebrate America's birthday. We always have been a violent, rebellious lot.

Go on. Get! Go listen to the Big Show! It's extra-special good for the Fourth. Go on now! I got my fireworks to tend to.

Hey, y'all! Watch THIS!

IT'S 3 Chords & the Truth, y'all. Be there. Alo . . . BOOM!
