Someone got the bright idea to pair Paolo Nutini and Ray Benson from Asleep at the Wheel for an artist panel in the media lounge. They ask Paolo what its like to tour in Texas, and so he goes off on this weird patronizing reply in his lady-killing Scotch-Italian accent. All the older women in the tent start gushing like hes frickin Leif Garrett. Then the question gets asked to Benson, and he starts laying down a good ol boy anecdote, comparing touring to fishing. It was juxtaposition at its grisliest.

Here's hoping bad photos and bad jokes cancel each other out.
