Country Thunder Lines Up Wide Variety of Country

Tim McGrawIn years past, the lineup at country music festivals was pretty predictable. A couple of headliners who are household names, a handful of hot newcomers and some locals acts most folks have never heard of. But this year's Country Thunder is a mixed bag of the good, the we'll-see and the oh-my-God-they're-still-around? Tim McGraw, Alan Jackson, Taylor Swift, Kellie Pickler, Phil Vassar, Jake Owen, Jack Ingram, Rodney Atkins, the Lost Trailers, Diamond Rio, Tracy Lawrence, the Bellamy Brothers, Terri Clark, Mark Chesnutt, Restless Heart, Heidi Newfield, Joey & Rory, Colt Ford, Burns and Poe and Shawn Hammonds will be turning the fields of Twin Lakes, Wis., into one big ol' honky-tonk from July 15-18. Tickets are on sale now.

    A decidedly mixed-bag, to be sure. Some of these artists are pure has-beens.
