So, okay, I only know these people from last year's Overstock.com ads -- or was it the year before? -- where they write each other a love song and she buys him a guitar on the Web site, or something. I don't remember. But apparently Joey + Rory placed third in a show called *Can You Duet* on CMT, the title of which only reminds me of the really funny double entendre in "Let's Duet" from *Walk Hard*, and they are a real band and he's an established songwriter, and stuff. So.

I am sure that somehow this is Rory's shtick, wearing the overalls with the crisp white dress shirt. (I have no idea if Joey's shtick is dressing like a Brownie who just earned both her sewing AND genealogy merit badges, but I'm going to assume not unless she shows up at the next event dressed as a Brownie who has earned, say, Horse Lover and Computer Skills). So the question is, does simply having a shtick make it okay? Is the on-the-nose folksyness of country man Rory's fresh overalls and the Fancy Gala Event just plain *darling*, or are you groaning and hissing that he should go on Overstock and look for a suit?For terribly boring technical reasons that hopefully will be resolved in a few weeks' time, I have to put the poll after the jump:
