Fans know best?

Rascal Flatts let a fan design their album cover, Dierks Bentley let them select his greatest hits.....should fans become more involved?

Should they be able to submit songs, ideas for cover songs and even more? I guess - you, the fan, has the answer to that question.

One of my friends said that some singers tend to over-twang songs. Funny, because whenever I sang, I over-twang stuff. But I'm not a serious singer. And unnatural twang makes a mockery of country music. So, I'd like to see people keep it real. Twang. Use it if you've got it. If not, use it, but don't record it so another soul can hear it.
