So what is a country band's restaurant like? A place where you drink cheap beer, throw peanut shells on the floor, and listen to crappy music? Is this any different than a Texas Roadhouse?

I don't know... despite proximity... Columbus might as well be on Mars.

If you don't like it, don't go.

If you don't like it, don't go.
I was asking what it was about. But thanks for your concern. I never said I may not like it. Drinking cheap crappy beer and listening to crappy music is a hoot for me.

No you weren't asking what it was about, otherwise you would have just asked what it was about and left it at that. Instead you were being a derisive, patronizing snob in the form of a question.

And I'm similarly allowed to suggest you not go there if you don't like it. If this offends you then please block me.

Give it up. I have a slow day at work today, but really don't feel like having a internet fight with an aggressive internet bully on a forum over an opinion.

Is what I said a witty and intelligent post? No. Should my opinion of what I see as crappy country chains opening in Pittsburgh be allowed? Sure. Regardless of if I go or not, I should be allowed to question chains opening in Pittsburgh. Just like many forumers offer their opinions on chains opening in Market Square. Even a poster above you mentions his opinion on many chains he doesn't like, but I don't get all upset. There is no reason to berate me for a opinion regardless of if you are a long time internet badass here or not that always berates people you don't like.

And yet here you are when you could have just had your word and let me have mine...

If you can't take the heat, don't light the fire.

Agree.

I'm trying to think of a celebrity-themed chain restaurant where I've enjoyed the food. Not coming up with anything. Been to some good shows at Hard Rocks around the country, but the food in mediocre. Planet Hollywood has always been awful and overpriced. Margaritaville? OK, I liked the shrimp but you could have the rest of the menu.

Only 'celebrity' places where I've enjoyed the food were places where the chef-owner was the eponymously-named celebrity.

And to be fair, if we're gonna let Toby Keith and Rascall Flatts in, there's gotta be room for Ludacris' Atlanta Chicken!
