One of my favorite songs of all time. Many believe that if Keith Whitley were still alive today, he would’ve given George Strait a run for his money as the current titleholder of the “King of country music.” Unfortunately, Keith passed away in May of 1989 from alcohol poisoning, but not before giving country fans some of the most timeless hits over the course of his brief, 5-year career.

With new festival lineups seemingly dropping on social media every other week, it may be hard to decide on which one(s) to attend. With some pretty heavy hitting lists of performers already announced for Two Step Inn, Cattle Country, Tailgate N’ Tallboys, as well as Morgan Wallen’s inaugural Sand In My Boots Fest in Gulf Shores Alabama, there’s just one problem for many ordinary fans – the prices.
