I'm here in Nashville with the Eagle morning show, Jimmy Ray and Jen, who are broadcasting live from the festivities. Lots of artists visited our area this morning. Jimmy Wayne mentioned that he and Dierks Bentley join Brad Paisley on stage for a special song during his concert. Julianne Hough is feeling LOTS better and is looking forward to the show with George Strait and Blake Shelton Friday night. Speaking of Blake, he told us how much he loves to come to Virginia Beach. Tonight, we had a chance to see Alan Jackson perform at the Cadillac Ranch in honor of his 20th year in the business and Jimmy Ray had the opportunity to interview him. LOTS of neat things.
On a personal level, although this is work, it isn't for me. It's always a huge thrill to see these artists and experience how real they actually are. I've only been a part of country music for 6 and a half years. Most of my career was in rock and Top 40 and, I have to tell you, some of those artists need to come to Music Fest to see how it should be done...and IS done for the country audience. There is nothing like it.
