If not Alan Jackson next… how about Keith Urban? Flatts? :)

I wanna cry!!! I love them!
But I guess all good things have to come to an end a some time.

I concor and hope they release a single that sums of their career. Maybe they have a song in waiting called, ‘Last Rodeo’ that would coincide with the tour. They can include the song on 1 of 50 possible ‘greatest hits’, ‘best of’ packages that will probably get released next year to capitolize on their split.

I’m surprised so many people have negative comments about these guys. I agree their music hasn’t been as good in recent years as it used to be, but I still contend that they’re one of the best acts around still today and one of very few from the 90s that are still charting. I’ve always loved Brooks & Dunn, and like Leeann, they’re just a household name, synonymous with good country music. I’m sad to see them go.

With them touring next year, I sort of expect them to release more than just ‘Honky Tonk Stomp’ to radio, so hopefully it won’t be the last single.

I hate to hear this!!! I think “Believe” is one of the best songs I have heard. I wish them both luck in the future. I am sure that they have made a fair share of money!

I just want to say that Brooks & Dunn are still very popular! I have been to many of their shows, and each one is usually better than the last! They always draw huge crowds, and Ronnie can sing a song like not many others can! They will be missed by many!!

I dunno, Marc, I think Alan has had many more good songs this decade, even in the last five years, than B&D have had.I want Alan to do better with his next album, but he’s certainly not on deck for me just yet. Like George Strait, I want to see how long he can go.

I agree with Leeann. While I haven’t really cared for most of what they put out in the last six years or so, this comes as sad news to me because I grew up listening to them in the 90′s when they’re music was still really good. And, yes, hopefully “Honky Tonk Stomp” will not be their swan song.

I strongly encourage everyone to go read this Fake News item at Country California. I don’t imagine there will be a better analysis of the B&D split than this:
