short version is, i went through a bad break up, decided to flee for a few weeks across the big water, and paris was the worst idea i had,....after the first day walkin around the city, i spent the rest of the week holed up in the bath tub of my hotel drinking booze i couldnt pronounce, eating croissants, and reading french vouge

Lonely and heartbroken in paris still sounds very romantic to me. I'm sorry you had a bad experience. Maybe when you go can ride a French mechanical bull and actually stay on this time.

i can't see it would be less common than anywhere else. is like tv country crap. or traditional roots music. i know quite a few people who grew up in french canadian areas who've gone to france to play traditional stuff. it's not quite country music but from a layman's perspective, it's acoustic guitars and fiddles so it's 'country' and from what i hear the people over there go NUTS for it hehehe.

but from the look of that site it's going to be a typical north american country fest.

This would be much cooler if this was Balkan music.

i didn't necessarily mean tv country when i said north american. from the videos you linked i get the impression it'll be like a bluegrass festival (ie very traditional) but with only about 10% of the pep. if it's a free trip and you're thing then i'd say pack your bags and remember that 'baiser' means kiss in the dictionary but feck in france.
