Musical acts like Montana, rather the lack of Tejano acts on the rodeo bill, are just what have folks around Houston up in arms. Former State Senator Gonzalo Barrientos is calling for "friends across the whole great state of Texas not to attend the Houston livestock show, period."

Rodeo officials blame the lack of main stage performances on feedback from last years ticket holders citing that 3% of the poll group said it was due to the Tejano star booked for the event. Perhaps interest would increase if bigger name act was booked. Sounds like there should be a Tejano Idol show in the works.
