okay now it's Sandy right
all right
yeah
Sandy um what kind of music do you like to listen to
i like Country and it's really hard to find people that enjoy country music
uh-huh
in San Diego uh-huh
in my age
because i'm twenty two and most people my age like hard rock and
uh-huh
not me i think it was the stupidest thing ever invented
oh
i still like country music and
do you oh
so it's kind of hard for me to find people i agree with on music
oh um now have you lived in California all your life
oh no
no you just moved there
i i have to be here right now because my husband's in the Navy
oh
but i'm going home first opportunity i get
now where's home
Arizona
oh okay so country music is prevalent in Arizona
oh yeah i i was born in a little tiny town that that's all they have
is it oh
oh
it has a population of about three hundred people and all they know is country music
i mean they still have barn dances and stuff
oh how fun oh
yeah it is pretty fun
oh gosh i don't blame you uh my husband's in the Navy Reserves and so he's going out to San Diego in about three weeks for his two week
oh really
yearly stint so
i'll be missing him then but
yeah my husband's leaving March twelfth he has to go out to sea again
oh and how long does he stay out
so
well usually they stay out six to nine months but this time they're only going out for i think it's two weeks this time because they're just they're just doing their sea trials making sure they're ready to go out to sea again
oh
oh well thank goodness
uh-huh
oh i think that's terrible oh
yeah it gets kind of monotonous
yeah
but i incorporated him into country music because he didn't he didn't like it when we got married but since he married me and i was the country girl that's all i have going on at home
uh-huh
uh-huh
oh
so now he's gotten where he really likes country music and for my birthday he went out and he got me a brand new pair of Tony Llama boots and he bought himself a pair too and took me out country dancing
uh
uh-huh
oh boy so he is real country now
yeah and all his friends tease him on the ship
are you sure cowboys know how to swim
he he gets upset about it but it's funny
that is that is well out here in Utah we have a lot of country and we live kind of in the country it's by Ogden Utah i don't know if you know Salt Lake City
my my dad lives in Salt Lake
oh yeah well it's it's about a hour north of Salt Lake so we're out here in the country and we hear a lot of the country music
yeah
in fact i work in a bakery and the baker comes to work at four o'clock in the morning and i come to work at six o'clock in the morning
and he just has the country music just a blasting and he just rocks and rolls in the bakery to country music
yeah i know how that goes i think country music's the only thing keeping me sane with these kids
oh
i i bet that's really hard being their alone with all those with the two little ones
yeah
yeah it is but
i don't know it's worth it
way it's a way of life for a while huh
it's worth it to me
yeah that's good
well um my favorite kind of music is New Age and it's that sounds like it's hard rock and roll but it's not it's the
oh the synthesizers synsi synthesizers and all of that
yeah and it kind of has a bluesy mix to it yeah
uh-huh and it's just beautiful i love it i
i find it so relaxing and i do i'm getting beginning to like country music more and more since my boss has it on all the time but um
but my very favorite is that New Age i like my favorite recording artist is Yanni and he's not he doesn't make you yawn he
yeah
do you know who Mariah Carey is
um i have yeah i've heard of her in fact i was watching the Grammy's and i i saw her on the Grammy's
i don't particularly like her kind of music but she's got a couple songs that i i i can listen to
uh-huh
uh-huh
you know without going totally bonkers
yeah she's not too wild
yeah but
i don't know i just i guess i'm kind of the only country one that got left
oh
because most people here most of the bars and everything are either hard rock or disco or um just a blues bar we've got several blues bars in the neighborhood neighborhood
oh
yeah
uh-huh
and it's like uh guys what happened to juke boxes and sawdust on the floor you know
