Welcome to The List,

Everyone is looking forward to a positive 2022…Chris Stapleton is looking to go on the road as well as Jordan Davis with Dierks Bentley early in the new year and Jon Pardi? He’s looking forward to new music if he could just…get…to it…“We haven’t had no time to work on it because I’ve (only) been home about two or three days for the past three months, it seems like, and I haven’t been writing. I’ve been doing nothing but touring. So, I’m gonna get some songwriting in and finish this album.” He sounds a little frustrated…

Zac Brown has a unique way of working out.  Telling GQ magazine that he does it while playing video games. Saying he’s got an overactive brain, so he had to figure out some way that he could do cardio.

A little something for the beer drinker and Dallas Cowboys fans in 2022.  Fox NFL announcer Troy Aikman is releasing a new beer in February called Eight. The healthy beer is made with organic grains, antioxidant hops and no sugar. The beer only has 90 calories BUT will NOT help you throw a fifty yard pass into a trash can.  Although you may THINK you can after a few of them.
