The Friday Flashback: 2008 Chicago Country Music Festival

It was only a couple of weeks back, but the Chicago Country Music festival drew some pretty good crowds to its new digs around Soldier Field. In past years it was lost in the shuffle of Taste of Chicago.

Guilty Pleasure Alert: I like Gretchen Wilson, the native of Pocahontas, Illinois and self-styled "Redneck Woman." And she knocked this song out of the parking lot: a dead-on cover of Heart's "Barracuda" that is the complete opposite of "country."
