Kid Rock described Lady Antebellum as a hillbilly Fleetwood Mac, except I suspect they dont do drugs or sleep with each other. Hmm? Like a lot of todays country stars, Lady Antebellum traffic in heartache. But aside from the lyrics, there is little to suggest theyre hurting in any way. The arrangements have much in common with those too-familiar, regret-soaked Don Henley and Richard Marx hits from the 80sif feelings are conveyed, they are as empty as prime time TV. Mild twang aside, they are a soft-rock band through and through, so perhaps Kid Rock was right about them being kin to Fleetwood Mac. Let me know when they start snorting tweak and screwing each other, then maybe Ill listen. With David Nail. BRIAN J. BARR
