WOW! What a great week it's been here at the CMA Music Fest! We (and YOU) have been treated to some truly incredible performances!!
I know it's hard to listen to every one of the great broadcasts this week on XM ... and especially hard to catch the late-night shows. But if you missed the Thursday/Friday/Saturday night songwriter concerts from the Hard Rock, you missed some of the absolute BEST live entertainment at this year's CMA Music Fest!! The 3-night event raises money for "Musicians On Call," a great organization that facilitates the healing power of music to patients in hospitals all over the country. They've just opened a Nashville chapter, and our songwriting community here has really embraced the charity. Find out more about them at www.musiciansoncall.org.
I'm telling you ... no disrespect to the great performers in country music, but the songwriters in this town are every bit as entertaining as our most popular stars! These concerts at the Hard Rock were absolutely the place to be "after hours" this year at CMA Music Fest ... and I'm sure they will be next year, too! We're talkin' Jeffrey Steele, Craig Wiseman, Bob DiPiero, Tony Mullins, Bobby Pinson, Brett James, Jim Collins, Carolyn Dawn Johnson, Rivers Rutherford, Philip White, Marv Green, Lesley Satcher, and Steven Dale Jones!!!!
If you missed these shows, don't worry -- you'll be able to catch them in a few weeks during our special "4th of July Fan Fair Flashback" on Highway 16! Same goes for all of the other great parties and concerts we've aired this week ... a great chance to relive this magical week!!
Now ... I need some sleep!
