It's just not the same today, and the more recent attempts at country music all prove it.

I don't disagree with the change in demos, but my point about recent PRESENTATIONS still stands. I'm talking about approaching the format the way The Wolf approched Texas audiences in the 90s. Ignoring national charts and programming specifically for the New York audience. It means a cross between classic country and AC. There is still a large audience for this music in New York. Kenny Chesney sells out Madison Square Garden. I think he could sell out Giants Stadium with the right bill.

Kenny Chesney selling out at MSG means nothing in terms of popularity of country music in New York. The majority of the audience undoubtedly comes from outside New York. People travel far and wide to see concerts in the big city.
Your analogy is akin to saying that seeing the ball drop on New Year's eve is popular with New Yorker's when in reality 99.9% come from out of town.

That, and 20,000 people in a metro area of over 15 million (excluding all the visitors) attending a concert really doesn't say anything at all about the viability of any genre of music in NYC.
