Zac Brown Band and a Trekky?
Well if the T-Pain and Taylor Swift thing is true, I suppose anything is possible. After all, the guy who played Ayel (Clifton Collins Jr.) in the most recent Star Trek movie is the same guy who's been collaborating with the Zac Brown Band. In a behind-the-camera kind of way. Collins shot the "Chicken Fried" and "Whatever It Is" videos, and "Chicken Fried" earned two CMT Music Award nominations. So don't jump to the conclusion that Zac Brown is just pulling a Brad Paisley and grabbing just any Trekky off the street to star in his videos. From the looks of these videos, Collins clearly knows what he's doing. Plus, the award show is on June 16, which is Collins' birthday. Wish them luck.

Zac Brown Band are the best thing to hit counry music in a decade. They are REAL country, have a stellar album that has sold over 600,000 and is still in the Top 5 of the country charts since its release.
They are the real deal, we haven’t a great country band like this since Alabama.
Move over boy band(RF) your days are numbered.
They wrote every song on their album and even play instruments.

Loretta Lynn will always be #1 for me in country music and always has been from the moment I saw her at Radio Music Hall in the 60’s with my parents, have seen her more than any other artist, well over 50 times.
Then comes Conway, no one can ever take his place as my favorite Male country artist, no matter how long he has been gone. 16 years this last June the 5th.
Then comes Tim, will alays be a fan of his voice and his music and will always buy his albums and see him if I can.
Zac Brown Band are a breath of fresh air and so is Lady Antellbum and Daricus Rucker.
Zac Brown is the BEST country band to come around since Alabam.
They are selling great better than them tweenite stars like Kellie, Julianne and others. Their album has been in the Top 5 for months and selling more than that bubblegum pop album of Keith Urban and the awful album of wannabe Rodney Atkins.

Actually Zac Brown Band is not that new “Far From Einstyne” came out in 2004, and I started listening to them in 2005 when their CD “Home grown” was released(with the tune Chicken Fried) Never did like Alabama, and I also think there are MANY great bands out there today. Now probaly more than ever. Just because you don’t know about them doesn’t mean they do not exist.
