Nail will showcase songs from his forthcoming late summer MCA Nashville release titled I’m About To Come Alive. Watch David Nail Red Light Acoustic Video
“This came to us after the record was done,” David says us of the song that almost didn’t make his album. “To be honest, I wasn’t real crazy about adding it, because any time you do a record you have to force yourself to close the book on it. Otherwise you’ll just keep going back and wanting to fix and add things. But after I listened to it I said, ‘I get it. Just tell me when and where we’re recording.’ And since we’ve been out on the road with it, introducing it to the world, it’s been great. I think it was something that we were missing on the record, and I’m glad we had the opportunity to add it.” ‘Red Light,’ written by Jonathan Singleton, Melissa Peirce and Dennis Matkosky, is the second single off David’s ‘I’m About to Come Alive’ album, set for release July 14, 2009.
David Nail threw out the first pitch on May 5, 2009 as his homestate St. Louis Cardinals took on the Philadelphia Phillies. Nail visited with Cardinal’s manager Tony La Russa before the game during the St. Louis stop of the “Red Light Road Trip” Tour. People magazine boasts Nail as “One of Nashville’s Hottest New Stars” and American Profile agrees titling him “One To Watch”. He has also been featured in Billboard, Country Weekly and chosen for OK!’s “Man Candy” page. Nail supports pediatric cancer research thru Dick Vitale’s V Foundation in memory of Payton Wright and the Girls & Boys Club. He has performed at Kenny Chesney’s pre-show tailgating parties and opened for Sugarland. source: MCA Nashville / The Boot.com Artist PagesShare this story with others: David Nail David Nail’s new album, I’m About To Come Alive, hits stores July 14, 2009. Growing up in a small southeastern Missouri town, David Nail might’ve chosen to follow any of the dreams that drifted by like the riverboats on the mighty Mississippi: but in the end, it was music that called his name. “I was definitely more into sports growing up,” says the Midwest native. “I think I was expected to play in college, but as I grew older I became more interested in music. After my senior year I had a few small college offers to play baseball. My coach came to me and said ‘David, you need to decide where you’re going to school,’ and out of the blue I just said, ‘Do you know anybody in Nashville?’” For singer-songwriter Nail, it was a history-making moment—small town boy decides to chase a big city dream—and a theme that has informed his music ever since. On his first album from MCA Nashville, he neatly bridges the divide, laying claim to his hometown roots while keeping a firm grip on the future, and all the deeply emotional territory in between.
“I feel like regardless of where you grew up, city, small town, east coast, west coast or whatever, there’s something in this music that you can relate to,” he says. “They might not all be exactly the same, but everyone has those moments; the first time you left home, falling in love, losing love. That’s what moves me, what I can dig into.” Nail, son of a former high school band director, cut his musical teeth on a record collection that included Stevie Wonder, Elton John and the Beatles. “Elton John was one of the main reasons I started singing, and is still a tremendous influence,” he says. “I think he and the Beatles are probably two of the greatest melody makers of all time.” Then he moved on to country: “I ‘discovered’ country music in the early 90’s along with everyone else my age,” he says. “But I guess I kind of got more obsessive than everybody else. I found myself looking back as far as the late ‘60s and early ‘70s, exposing myself to some of the biggest stars of that era. It was then that I fell in love with Glen Campbell, who is still one of my all-time favorites.” Drawn to Music City after high school, Nail took that first step on his long and winding road, following the music. “I had been to Nashville as a small child but I had no memories of what it was like and obviously had no idea what the music business was like,” he says. “I had no idea what I was supposed to be doing.” Overwhelmed, he ended up moving back to Missouri in less than a year. Returning to Nashville two years later, Nail became frustrated once again in early 2005 with the lack of movement of his music career. David spent the next two summers helping an old college buddy coach the Twitty City Knights, a select group of some of Nashville’s best baseball talent. “I did it just to get away from the reality of what my career had become at that time, and it was being around those kids that recharged my batteries. It reminded me how free and easy life is at 17 and 18 years old and how truly blessed I’d been, both growing up, and now, being able to chase my dream. I will forever look back on that time and those kids for getting me back on track.” Shortly thereafter, mutual friend Brian Wright, who’d recently become V.P., A&R, for both the MCA and Mercury Nashville labels, introduced Nail to producer Frank Liddell, who 10 years earlier had produced one of Nail’s all-time favorite records, Chris Knight’s self-titled Decca debut. Through the ups and downs of a life in the music business, Nail was persistent – and his dream became a realization with I’m About To Come Alive, a collection of songs that captures the highs and lows and the hometown flavor of his own experiences. “I wanted to take something from the people who’ve inspired me,” he says. “But also put myself in there, and just make something I could be proud of. It’s definitely a moody record. There’s definitely going to be some heartbreak in there, as well as some dark times. But there’s music you listen to when you’re feeling good, and music you listen to when you’re down and out, and I think this is a record that satisfies both needs.” From the second he started recording, Nail was determined to bridge the gap between traditional country and the soulful stylings of a Lionel Ritchie and Ray Charles. “I’ve got to have a piano player with a lot of fire, a little more recklessness!” he says. Liddell offered up legendary player Chuck Leavell, who brought his inspired piano into the mix with Nail’s smooth, yet soulful vocals to create magic on tracks like “Mississippi”. “It’s a very reflective ballad about a guy from a small town who’s in the city,” Nail says. “It’s very moody Ray Charles-esque, and was actually written for him. Chuck went in there and started playing the intro and suddenly I felt as if I was back in those early days of recording. His playing sent me to another level of singing.” “Turning Home”, co-written by and for Kenny Chesney, has that same soulful emotion and drew Nail’s attention as a demo. “When I first heard it, it was a lot of what I was feeling at the time. I just kept listening to it over and over. I felt like I had always been searching for a song I could really sing, put some emotion, pain and hurt into, and then here was this song,” he said. The result is a perfect match between singer and song, with that same church-meets-honky-tonk piano on the side, and vocals reminiscent of another one of Nail’s big influences, Vince Gill. Nail wrote five of the eleven I’m About To Come Alive tracks, including “Missouri”. “I was in the middle of a two-year bout with depression,” said Nail. “It’s without a doubt the most honest and personal song I’ve written. I’d been in a relationship for a year or so and could sense something was wrong with me. It was more or less me crying out, pleading for her to leave me because I didn’t have the courage to do it myself.” Along with Scooter Carusoe (“Anything But Mine”), Nail also wrote “Clouds”, which he explains is about one of his most recent misses at romance. “The best songs I’ve ever written just kind of come to me. You don’t have a choice in the matter, they just more or less pour out. Both ‘Missouri’ and ‘Clouds’ were like that.” From the first listen, Nail realized an affinity for single “Red Light” and the catchy “Summer Job Days”, co-written by Rascal Flatt’s Gary LeVox, both of which he was drawn to in a way all his own. “’Red Light’ shows a different perspective of a break up,” he says. “It’s not your typical situation since it describes a beautiful day and everything seeming to be perfect, but that’s what makes it unique.” “The first time I heard ‘Summer Job Days’, I just knew that I had to cut it. Growing up I never went on a lot of vacations. I was actually 21 before I saw the ocean for the first time. There were plenty of times I wanted to go on spring break with friends but didn’t get to. This song expressed what I always imagined it would’ve been like had I got to experience it.” With all that emotion going into his songs, he admits he’s a guy who’s always looking for the happy ending. “This is a confession – I’m a man of many extremes, whether working or playing,” he says. “I’m a songwriter, so I’m a sensitive guy. I long for the storybook life.” And it’s produced a lot of good material. “I think the really great singers and writers are able to dig a little deeper and find that other level of emotion,” Nail says. “And I think that’s what makes them better than the rest. I always pride myself on trying to find that place with every song.” And that he does with good friend and singer Miranda Lambert for “Strangers On A Train”. “The imagery of this song is so vivid. You can picture what it would look and feel like as a video.” “There are also songs that help you through life,” Nail admits. Title track “I’m About To Come Alive” carried him thru times where confidence was lacking. “When I first discovered this song it applied to my personal life. The further I got into making this album, it began to apply to my professional life.” And it’s that moment of raw emotional connection that Nail hopes to pass on to listeners. “I’m more or less just trying to join the fray of good music,” he says. “People ask me all the time how I’d describe my music and I say ‘Well, I hope it’s good.’ Hopefully people will just enjoy it for being good music and take from it whatever it makes them feel.”
Hard knocks and heartache, good times and bad, small towns and big cities – it’s all in his music. “They’re all aspects of life,” he says. “I’m still growing as both a person and artist, and will hopefully continue getting better in regards to both.”

Jamey Johnson’s That Lonesome Song has been certified gold by the RIAA commemorating 500,000 in sales. The record has spent 20 weeks inside the top ten on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart. Reaching gold status is a huge accomplishment for a record that was initially only for sale on the internet until Luke Lewis, Chairman of Universal Music Group Nashville, heard the music and signed Johnson to a major label deal. In 2009, Johnson has performed for sold-out crowds of music fans to whom he says he owes this great achievement. “A gold record is one of the only awards that truly comes from your fans,” says Johnson. “They just made our album relevant to country music.” That Lonesome Song was released on Mercury Records on August 5, 2008. The music industry, fans, country radio and journalists from all over the country were drawn to the authenticity of Johnson’s music and he immediately garnered rave album reviews. That Lonesome Song made “Best Albums of 2008” lists (all genres) by Rolling Stone, USA Today, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The Washington Post, Houston Chronicle, The Dallas Morning News, Billboard, PASTE and many more. iTunes named Johnson’s That Lonesome Song the Best Country Album of 2008 and his debut single, “In Color,” Best Country Song of 2008. Members of The Recording Academy validated the impact of Johnson’s album by nominating him for three Grammy’s with one in the prestigious Best Country Album category alongside veteran artists George Strait, Randy Travis, Patty Loveless and Trisha Yearwood. Recently, Johnson took home the ACM Song of the Year award for his hit single “In Color.” This was Johnson’s second win in the ACM Song of the Year category. He previously won in 2006 for “Give It Away,” which was recorded by George Strait. Johnson will perform that song as a duet with Lee Ann Womack on George Strait’s Artist of the Decade special which will air on May 27 at 8:00PM ET/PT on the CBS Television Network. CMT just announced their first round finalists for the “2009 CMT Music Awards” and Johnson received two nominations for “In Color” - one for Male Video of the Year and the other in the USA Weekend Breakthrough Video of the Year category. Since the launch of Johnson’s album, he has performed live on The Late Show with David Letterman, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, CMT Crossroads, 44th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards, Farm Aid and he has toured with the legendary Willie Nelson. source: Universal Music Group Nashville Watch the ACountry interview with Jamey Johnson at the 2008 TJ Martell Ride for A Cure in Nashville

Jamey Johnson and Shooter Jennings team up for an outlaw episode of CMT CROSSROADS. CMT CROSSROADS: SHOOTER JENNINGS AND JAMEY JOHNSON was taped before an invitation only audience in Nashville earlier this month and premieres Monday, March 23 at 10:00 p.m., ET/PT on CMT. The episode will feature the duo collaborating on Johnson’s “High Cost of Living,” “Between Jennings and Jones” and his recent Grammy-nominated single, “In Color.” They also perform Jennings’ “God Bless Alabama” and a cover of his father, Waylon Jennings’ song, “Outlaw Bit.” His father put rock into country and Shooter Jennings injected that same hybrid heritage into modern rock. Born the son of outlaw country legend Waylon Jennings and Jessi Colter, he gravitated to playing metal-based rock ‘n’ roll at an early age. Shooter moved to LA as a teenager and assembled a high-voltage band, Stargunn, and lit up the local rock scene. After his father’s death in 2002, Shooter – at his late father’s oft-expressed desire – sang Waylon’s “I’ve Always Been Crazy” at the memorial service, with Stargunn joined by Waylon’s Waymore band. In 2003, he departed Stargunn and assembled the .357s, creating a sound that was a blend of the modern rock and soul he loved with the country sensibility and dynamics. Together, Shooter and the .357s have released 3 studio albums and one live record. The professional novelist and amateur musician Stephen King wrote that Shooter’s song “Fourth of July” was “maybe the best fusion yet of rock and country.” Last year, Shooter completed his father’s heritage by finishing several songs they had cut together at home when Shooter was 16. He and the .357s cut new tracks behind Waylon’s vocals, giving the songs a future-leaning rock sound that Shooter felt Waylon was striving for. Completing the album Waylon Forever was for Shooter, he said, a liberating process. It had closed a chapter of his father’s life and opened a new one of his one. On March 24, Shooter will release Bad Magick: The Best of Shooter Jennings and the .357s, which will feature 13 fan favorites from his last four albums and two tracks never before released on CD. He could be basking in his songwriting accolades, but Jamey Johnson remains a restlessly creative maverick. Johnson is the co-writer of the CMA and ACM 2007 Song of the Year “Give It Away,” recorded by George Strait. Trace Adkins, George Jones and Joe Nichols have also recorded his songs. “Writing is not enough for me,” says this intense artist. “I did not come here to just be a writer. I live to play….I’m not here to take a stab at it. I am going to DO it.” Following a deep period of isolation and introspection, Jamey Johnson entered the recording studio in April 2007. Within months, Johnson emerged with That Lonesome Song, a collection of extraordinary compositions that is equally noteworthy for its lyrical craftsmanship and its strikingly original sound. This unique album was embraced by the music industry as well as music fans. That Lonesome Song was one of the most critically acclaimed albums of 2008 and appeared on multiple “Best of 2008” lists including Rolling Stone, USA Today, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The Washington Post, SPIN and PASTE. iTunes hailed That Lonesome Song as the Best Country Album of 2008 and Johnson’s hit song “In Color” as the Best Country Song of 2008. Johnson recently received what he considers the highest honor from his peers by receiving three Grammy nominations. Johnson received five ACM nominations, including Album of the Year, Top New Male Artist, Single Record of the Year and as an artist and composer for Song of the Year for “In Color.” Shooter Jennings and Jamey Johnson join an elite group of performers who have taped CMT CROSSROADS, which pairs country music stars with popular artists from other genres—pop, rock, R&B—to play together, swap stories, and share their common love of music. Previous episodes of CROSSROADS have included Lindsey Buckingham and Little Big Town; Bon Jovi and Sugarland; John Fogerty and Keith Urban; Kelly Clarkson and Reba McEntire; Joss Stone and LeAnn Rimes; Robert Plant and Alison Krauss; and Def Leppard and Taylor Swift. source: CMT Watch the ACountry interview with Jamey Johnson at the 2008 TJ Martell Ride for A Cure in Nashville

It’s extremely emotional and has a little different slant on things the guy could have done right along the way.” She Wouldn’t Be Gone is Blake Shelton’s second consecutive Number One hit, following on the success of “Home.” His other number one hits are “Austin,” “The Baby,” and “Some Beach.” Share this story with others: KILT Raises $503,179 for St. Jude

Sugarland’s Love video is the third single from Love On The Inside. Jennifer Nettles’ powerhouse pipes take center stage in this ballad. And that strength comes though in the form of questions, about how you can possibly define love. Is it the face of a child? Kindness in the eyes of a stranger? In a hotel room in Washington D.C., when Sugarland was chasing down the theme of the whole album, the topic of love came up. “No way could you ever narrow it down,” Nettles says of their writing time with Tim Owens (“Settlin’). There’’s love lost, love found, new and old loves. So this tune gets right in the middle, and makes some reaches musically. Kristian Bush’’s powerful voice is featured for the second half of this song. “"When we were writing the back half, Jen said ‘I want you to sing these words I wrote just for you,” recalls Bush.” “I will always feel special singing those words.”” Share this story with others: Stars Shine For Country Cares
Some of Nashville’s brightest stars traveled west on Music Highway to join representatives from more than 200 country music radio stations at the 2009 Country Cares for St. Jude Kids Seminar in Memphis. Celebrating its 20th year, the fundraising program brings together all facets of the music industry and has raised more than $345 million to find cures and save children with life-threatening diseases. More than 800 participants from across the country attended, including Lee Ann Womack, Richie McDonald, Lady Antebellum, Chris Young, Heidi Newfield, SheDaisy, Point of Grace, Jason Michael Carroll and Randy Owen of the GRAMMY® Award-winning group Alabama. Owen co-founded Country Cares in 1989 after meeting St. Jude founder Danny Thomas, who asked him to play a part in curing childhood cancer. “I’m so proud that the music that helped me put bread on my table and have a career is the same music and the same fans, to a certain degree, that have made incredible contributions to Country Cares,” Randy Owen said. “I look forward to the future. I absolutely know we’re making a difference in a very positive way.” Making a surprise appearance, country music star and devoted St. Jude supporter Keith Urban joined Owen and Richie McDonald – also a long-time crusader on behalf of St. Jude – and performed at the highly anticipated Songwriters’ Dinner Saturday evening. The dinner, which concluded the seminar’s three days of activities, also featured sponsor recognition and honored radio stations and individuals that have championed the fundraising program since its inception. Twenty five radio stations have partnered with Country Cares since its start 20 years ago including: WQYK of Tampa, Fla.; WKAK of Albany, Ga.; WSTH of Columbus, Ga.; WKKT of Charlotte, N.C.; WKML of Fayetteville, N.C.; WPAP of Panama City, Fla.; WDEN of Macon, Ga.; WAMZ of Louisville, Ken.; WTCR of Huntington, W.Va.; WWMS of Tupelo, Miss.; KHLS of Blytheville, Ark.; KAMS of Thayer, Mo.; WGKX of Memphis; WIL of St. Louis, Mo.; KCLR of Columbia, Mo.; KEZS of Cape Girardeau, Mo.; WUSY of Chattanooga, Tenn.; WSIX of Nashville; WIVK of Knoxville, Tenn.; WFMB of Springfield, Ill.; KXKZ of Ruston, La.; KMDL of Lafayette, La.; KSON of San Diego, Calif.; KMPS of Seattle, Wash., and KDRK of Spokane, Wash. Eight industry professionals, who first heeded Owen’s call to action, are considered to be the pioneers of Country Cares. Gene Bridges, Greg Fowler, Joe Galante, Lon Helton, Rhubarb Jones, Don Langford, Bill Mayne and Barry Mardit were honored at the Songwriters’ Dinner. Owen and David L. McKee, chief operating officer and interim CEO of ALSAC, were also presented with awards in recognition of two decades of dedication to Country Cares. The first Country Cares event was designed as a nationally syndicated radiothon and it raised $1 million for St. Jude. However, these pioneers knew the country music industry and its fans were eager to do more, and the program has expanded today to local markets across the country. Although Country Cares radiothons across the country are held year-round, the majority will begin the week of January 26, 2009 and continue through June 2009. These events typically last two days and feature St. Jude patient stories, story song vignettes and radio station promotions. Since 1989, hundreds of country artists have given their names and time to the program through recorded appeals, visits to the children at the hospital or call-ins to radiothons. “When Country Cares began, the survival rate for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) was approaching 73 percent; today, it’s 94 percent,” said Teri Watson, senior director of radio and entertainment marketing for ALSAC/St. Jude, the hospital’s fundraising organization. “But something else has increased over the course of 20 years, and that’s the hospital’s daily operating cost. It’s grown from $169,000 in 1989 to nearly $1.4 million in 2009. Now more than ever we need the support of the listeners of our Country Cares radio station partners so St. Jude can reach its goal of pushing the overall cure rate of all childhood cancer to 90 percent in the next decade.” St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is internationally recognized for its pioneering work in finding cures and saving children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases. St. Jude is the first and only pediatric cancer center to be designated as a Comprehensive Cancer Center by the National Cancer Institute. Founded by late entertainer Danny Thomas and based in Memphis, Tenn., St. Jude freely shares its discoveries with scientific and medical communities around the world. St. Jude is the only pediatric cancer research center where families never pay for treatment not covered by insurance. No child is ever denied treatment because of the family’s inability to pay. St. Jude is financially supported by ALSAC, its fundraising organization. For more information, please visit www.stjude.org.

The 2009 lineup for Stagecoach: California’s Country Music Festival-Powered by Toyota Tundra, includes Brad Paisley, Kenny Chesney, Reba and Kid Rock. The third annual Stagecoach festival will be held Saturday, April 25, 2009 and Sunday, April 26, 2009 at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California. Additional announced performers include Little Big Town, Miranda Lambert, Poco (Richie Furay, Jim Messina, Rusty Young, Paul Cotton, Jack Sundrud and George Lawrence), Charlie Daniels Band, Darius Rucker, Earl Scruggs, Chris Cagle, Lady Antebellum, Reverend Horton Heat, Jerry Jeff Walker, Ricky Skaggs, Ralph Stanley, Lynn Anderson, Doyle Lawson, Peter Rowan Bluegrass Band, Danielle Peck, Dale Watson, Zac Brown Band, The Duhks, Waddie Mitchell, Randy Houser, Hot Club of Cowtown and James Intveld. Alongside the wide variety of musical options--the critically acclaimed gathering features artists from the genres of mainstream country, bluegrass, folk, roots rock and alt-country in three performance areas--concert-goers will experience a weekend of fun for the entire family. Stagecoach also includes a leading BBQ competition and expanded camping area with amenities exclusive to campers. Last year’s Kansas City BBQ Society (KCBS) sanctioned Stagecoach Invitational BBQ Championship cook-off featured nearly 50 teams from across America competing for the official KCBS California state championship. By purchasing a five “taste ticket” pack, concert-goers experienced a variety of BBQ choices including chicken, tri tip, ribs and beans. Each taste ticket includes the ability to cast one vote for their favorite team. Due to overwhelming demand, the Stagecoach RV camping was also expanded last year to accommodate the number of music fans who chose to stay on site; more than 4000 RVs filled the area. Some of last year’s camping amenities included: WiFi access, an internet and re-charge tent, a 21-and-over clubhouse and cantina with Bloody Mary breakfasts, rest rooms with showers, potable water trucks and holding tanks. Festival attendees staying in the RV and camping area were also allowed “in & out” privileges throughout the weekend. In just two years, Stagecoach has joined the ranks of top U.S. destination festivals. The Los Angeles Times (5/6/08) noted: “Stagecoach brought an impressively wide range of performers together across its three stages: young and old, mainstream and fringe, traditional and experimental…The talent lineup also tested the limits of what defines ‘country’ music.” USA Today (5/5/08) said STAGECOACH has “found a national identity…on the same polo field as the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.” And the Orange County Register (5/3/08) added, “Stagecoach…should be considered a smashing success. Indeed, years from now this second outing may be viewed as the turning point for the budding Americana monolith…The achievement of this year’s three-day and more rock-embracing Stagecoach, however, is much more significant. It has proven that a refined, downscaled (yet in other ways expanded) version of that concept can become every bit as much an eagerly anticipated cornucopia as its sister festival has been for years.”
Tickets for Stagecoach go on sale Friday, November 14 at 10:00 AM (PT) at all Ticketmaster locations. Ticket prices start at just $99.00 for two-day passes. A variety of reserved seating, camping and RV packages are also available; to view a complete breakdown of available ticketing and onsite camping/RV options, please visit www.Stagecoachfestival.com.

Using authentic Keen family photos, recipes, and craft instructions, it illustrates all the verses of the song, which you can sing along with on the accompanying CD. Whether you"re one of Robert Earl's legion of fans, or you've just had enough of Perry, Bing, and the other crooners, Merry Christmas from the Family is what you need to keep the holidays in hilariously skewed perspective. Since it's original release in 2001, the Merry Christmas From The Family book has sold over 50,000 copies. A new edition of the book published by The University of Texas Press was released in September 2005. The book is 76 pages, includes color photos, and a CD of "Merry Christmas From The Family" with lyrics. As Keen tells it in this wry send-up of all those impossibly sweet, "not like our family" Christmas carols, Mom and Dad got drunk at the Christmas party, sister and brother brought their dubious significant others, the relatives' motor home blew out the Christmas lights, and a convenience store supplied all the goodies. Robert Earl Keen Merry Christmas From The Family Video First available on Keen's Gringo Honeymoon CD released in 1994, "Merry Christmas From The Family" is also featured on Montgomery Gentry's recently released greatest hits collection, Something To Be Proud Of: The Best of 1999-2005. "Coming out of the box, Eddie & I were bad-asses and hell-raisers and definitely not the "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" type," Gentry says. "But this song was one of those fun partying songs that talked about the bad in-laws and the aunt that's a chain-smoker. It seemed to fit the Montgomery Gentry image and really, fits a lot of American families." Montgomery adds, "I love this song because it represents everybody's family. I don't know any family that isn't just a little bit messed up."

To enter, click the "Win Tickets" link below and enter a few comments dinosaurs. Good luck! Our ticket promotion has ended. Thanks to everyone who entered. Check out the feedback from some of our previous winners: "I wanted to thank you so much again for all of the Walking with Dinosaurs tickets! My children LOVED this show. We all did! We couldn't believe how realistic the dinosaurs looked, walked and sounded! It was even funny at times. Needless to say we couldn't take our eyes off of them. Better yet, my kids didn't get bored once! LOL I know that show will be one for the memory books. We truly appreciate your kindness in picking us. Thanks again." "Just got home from the show & as my 3 1/2 year old grandson, Malaki & my brother, Steve said "THE SHOW WAS AWESOME!!" I am so thankful that you chose us as winners for your contest. Not only did Steve & Malaki go but Malaki's mom, myself, & 4 of my nephews went & enjoyed every moment of the show. Three of those nephews have never been to a show of this sort & really thought everything about it was "AWESOME". The dinosaurs are so life like & HUGE!! We all wanted to pet or take a ride on them. Malaki's favorite, of course, was T-Rex & Uncle Steve's was...well all them were his favorite. The nephews were really in to the creativity of the dinosaurs and are going to go home & tomorrow try to make one (good luck). Again thank you so very, very much for allowing my family to experience life through "Walking With the Dinosaurs". We would most definitely recommend the show & would enjoy seeing it again. Thank you & God bless." "Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! The show was amazing! As a parent of five boys (2 who love dinosaurs), you can imagine how thrilled I was to know that I was not going to have to pay for tickets for them to see the show. Three of my boys (3 yr old, 9 yr old, and 14 yr old) went with me to the show. When I first heard about the show coming to Raleigh, I prayed that we would be able to see it. I immediately began looking for discount tickets or free tickets to the show. That is when I came across A Country's wonderful website. Thank God that I did. I entered my name into the contest and said a prayer and left it at that. The next thing I know, I get an email from you stating that I won tickets. I almost fell out my chair and had to shout, "Praise God!" Once we got to the show, my boys and I were delighted to find out we were in GREAT seats in the lower level near the stage. AWESOME! I thought my 3 yr old would be a little frightened considering the size of the dinosaurs, but he was at the edge of his seat in amazement. He even started yelling at them. I was really surprised to see my 9 yr old covering his face at times. He kept on asking the 3 yr old if he was scared. The dinosaurs were so lifelike; we truly felt like we had went back in time. Their eyes were even blinking! Wow! The vibrant colors of the plants and their size were impressive. The entire stage layout in the different scenes were captivating. The narration was very educational. It wasn't long and boring, but just enough to learn something and remain intrigued. The narrator was comical. The kids especially loved the bit with the Tyrannosaurs Rex. We loved every minute of it! The RBC Center staff were very helpful and courteous. Thank you so very much for a wonderful time going back in time!" "Just wanted to thank you for the tickets! We had a great time! My daughter absolutely loved it and I was able to watch the robotics guys do their thing which was even more amazing. It was so worth it but I would have never been able to afford to do this on my own! Again, thanks so much for a great experience." "We had a wonderful time at the Walking With Dinosaurs Show. The dinosaurs were amazing. I worried that my 2 year old might be scared if the show was too loud. He loved every minute of it. He sat in his seat and couldn't take his eyes off the show. My 6 year old loved it too. The seats you gave us were great. My husband and I really enjoyed the show too. I don't think there was any way to make this show better -- it was really amazing. You really felt like you were back in dinosaur times and that they were real. "Thank you for the tickets to see Walking With the Dinosaurs. The show was AMAZING and very educational. Our 3 1/2 year old son was thrilled and engaged during the entire show. At the beginning, there were dinosaur eggs hatching and a predator came and ate one of the baby dinosaurs. My son yelled out "Put down that dinosaur! You don't eat that baby dinosaur!" It was so cute! Our son has seen all the Jurassic Park movies about 30-40 times each, so as each dinosaur came out on stage, he knew their names. I think that made him even more excited because it felt familiar to him and exciting at the same time. We were able to also take our 8 year old niece to the show thanks to your station's generosity. We really appreciate the tickets and had an incredible time that we'll remember for years to come." "Thank you again for selecting me as a winner for the tickets to the Walking With Dinosaurs show. You enabled me to be a hero to my future stepson who had been begging us to take him to see the dinosaurs. We would have been financially unable to go so the free tickets were a true blessing. Being able to tell him that we were going was almost as exciting as actually attending…but not quite. When the show began he was a little bit scared just because of the loud music (he’s ultra sensitive to noise) and he had to step out with his dad for a bit. But once he decided to come back in and “tough it out” he did great for the rest of the show. He sat wide-eyed at the sights and engaged with what was happening the entire time. He had a great time and couldn’t stop talking about it afterwards. He loved the T-Rex and baby T-Rex and said that was his favorite part. He also really liked the way the flowers and foliage looked around the perimeter of the arena and commented on them several times. The lights and pictures on the screen made the experience very exciting as well. All in all it was a great show and we feel very blessed to have been able to attend and give him and his sister the experience we would otherwise not have been able to afford." "Thank you again for the wonderful tickets! My children and I loved the show. I thought it was done extremely well and my children even want to go again. They thought the dinosaurs were real. My 4 year old daughter's favorite was the Utahraptor and my 3 year old son's favorite was the baby T-Rex. It was an amazing show and I was shocked at how educational it was as well. I was shocked how well the staging was, I didn't expect any of that. It did make you feel like you were back in time, right there with the dinosaurs. I thought the venue was excellent, there was not a bad seat there. The organizers handled everything well, and even parking was a breeze. Thank you again, we are so grateful and will never forget this! "I can't thank you enough for the wonderful night my family had last night! It was a blessing to get out together and just completely forget any troubles. This show was truly an experience I'll never forget. My daughter had a permanent grin on her face the whole night. She would announce each dinosaur as they came out and ohhh and awww'd through the entire show. The show was beyond words. Amazing doesn't seem to cover it. It was informative but highly entertaining at the same time. The music and sound effects had been simply incredible. It looked and sounded like you stepped back in time. The detail of the dinosaurs is something we just couldn't believe. The movements so life like. I would tell anyone thinking about going to run out and get tickets. Everyone would love this show. I know my parents enjoyed it just as much as my daughter. My daughter is running around the house right now wearing her dinosaur tail she got at the show. Roaring as she goes! Only one problem do I have now. The dinosaurs looked so real that my daughter now wants a dinosaur for a pet!!! "Hi! Walking with Dinosaurs was FANTASTIC - so much fun! We each had our favorites - I liked the Torosaurus the best, but the T-Rex was really popular with the crowd. The staging was excellent. The way the "vegetation" came to life around the stage was truly magical. The dinosaurs all looked so real! And the narrator played a great role. From the reactions from the kids around us (and the adults, too!), it was clear that this show is a huge family hit. Thank you again VERY much for the tickets! The seats were good and we totally enjoyed our night out." "I want to take a moment to tell you how much we appreciated the tickets to Walking with Dinosaurs. My two sons, ages 4 & 6, were mesmerized from start to finish. We were all blown away by the entire show and my boys cannot stop telling everyone they meet about seeing real live dinosaurs! They honestly thought they were real." "Thank you so much for an unforgettable experience! We loved the show! The dinosaurs were incredibly life-like. I was amazed at how much they moved, and how animated they were. My children were entranced. What I also found impressive was the lighting design, the set design and the sound. First-class production elements greatly enhanced the spectacle. The cast is excellent and the crew superb. We learned a lot and had fun doing it. This is a show that you can take anyone to, from toddlers to seniors. I will tell all my friends about this fabulous production. Thank you once again for giving my young paleontologists a thrill that they will never forget!" "The show was absolutely wonderful!! My kids loved it! As an adult, I loved that they included some humor into the narration and dinosaurs. Our seats were amazing. They had the first 3-5 rows blocked off (I'm assuming to accommodate the dinosaurs' tails and such) and we had seats in row 8 on the Lower Level. Again, thank you for offering such a great contest!" "The seats were perfect and the show was amazing! Our whole family really enjoyed getting to experience this. My son has always been in awe of dinosaurs and was completely intent the entire show while my daughter was very inquisitive and interested. Thank-you sooo much for a wonderful family night out and an experience we will cherish forever. The only thing I can even add as a critique would be to make the show longer. It just was so interesting that it went by sooo quick;)" "I could not wait to tell my son Amadou that he and I, as well as his two cousins, ages 6 and 10, would be able to attend "Walking with Dinosaurs" - The Live Experience. All three of the children were in awe, as was myself, at the lifelike animated dinosaurs as they were introduced. Everything about the show from the narration to the scenery were on point;and our seats were excellent we could see every detail of the performance. As a parent, I also really appreciated the educational component of the show. My son wanted to know more about how and why the earth changed over time as well as all the names of the dinosaurs featured. The program from the show was very helpful in recapping some of the highlights of the show and giving us a birds eye view into the making of the production." "The dinos were amazing with head, body movements and very authentic looking. Their roars were so loud you could feel the rumble. The show was dark and loud and in my mind geared towards the ages of 8 and up. The little ones were scared to death while those over the age of 8 were fascinated. All in all, the show was superb! Thanks again for giving my family the chance to experience walking with dinosaurs...it is one we won't forget." "I do want to let you know that I took my husband and our 21-yr-old son and our 9 1/2-yr-old daughter (who's autistic). We were so surprised at what great seats we had, mere words cannot describe the awe and amazement we all felt! Having the speaker walk with them added to the incredulous size of these magnificent creatures! Our daughter was mezmerized! She wouldn't even get up at intermission (you have no idea what a major deal that was)! We were in the third row from the floor! She didn't want to leave when it was over, stating that it had been too short. It was such a terrific family outing with all four of us stunned by the show! This was the best "prize" that I think I have ever won! Thank you again for making this an event to remember!" "I just wanted to say thank you, THANK YOU! May family had a super time at WWDL. The dinosaurs were so life like when they came out from behind the curtain that you forgot that there were people controlling them. The effects like the plants growing and the flowers coming up out of the ground were really cool too. The Stegosaurus got into a fight with the Allosaurus. The plates along his back glowed red, like they say it would in all the books that we have read. The two Torosaurs had a fight and then one of them even pooped, which any little boy would love. Mine laughed of course. There was a flying dinosaur, whose name I can’t spell. The Brachiosaurus was huge!!! Our seats were so awesome that we got to watch all of the dinosaurs come out from behind the curtain. My kids loved it, it was like they stopped right in front of us to let us get a good look. I liked the Utahraptors the best. Of course the boys loved the T-Rex and the baby T-Rex. The baby T-Rex was quite the little comedian. The show was great for all ages. My kids are 3 and 5 and when asked how they like it, my 3 year old summed it up as “cool.” He got up this morning and the first words out of his mouth were, “Did we go tot the dinosaurs last night,” and then I got a run down of the whole show. Thank you so much for giving us the opportunity to go see it and the seats were superb. It was something our family will never forget. Awesome details and cool special effects. T-Rex shook the house!" "Just let me say thank you! thank you! thank you!!!. My son Griffin was absolutely speechless throughout the show as was his mum and dad and grandmother. It was incredible to the point that at the ending of the show when the T-Rex came out, he pulled on his father's shirt and said..."if you don't move he will not see you, so stop moving or you are going to be eaten..." Thank you so much, the seats were spectacular and the show was too." "Last night, We went to the walking with the dinosaur show with the tickets I won from you, My 4 year Hunter was in Heaven. The show was Great! I wish you could have watch him during the show, He was so excited when a new dinosaur came out. He couldn't wait till the T-Rex came out. He was a little scared of it but he didn't take his eyes off it. He said it was the Best night of his life and that he would remember it always. He even had to take home a T-Rex. Thank you so much for choosing us." "My twin girls (4-1/2 years old) absolutely loved it! They have been huge fans of dinosaurs for over a year and a half now, and to be able to see them “in real life” was a special treat! "We just got back from tonight's Walking With Dinosaurs performance. I say performance with great enthusiasm because the whole thing exceeded my expectation's. So life- like, must be the most common said comment! My wife and our grandkid's loved it! They are so real, that I really only needed 2 seats. 1 for my wife, and 1 for me and the 2 grandsons, whom where all over me like the dinosaurs could pounce at anytime! Thank you for making great memories for all of us. Grandkids faces will forever be on my memory and photos." "We had such a great time at the Walking with Dinosaurs show last night - it was especially fun watching my 5 year old grandson, Rayden. We told him we were going shopping, and when those dinosaurs came out.... well, he was just absolutely thrilled. He has had a "love affair" with dinosaurs since he was 2 years old, and this was the icing on the cake. From the bottom of our hearts, his parents and I are so thankful to you for making this possible - Rayden will forever cherish the night he saw his wonderful, magical dinosaurs come to life!" Walking With Dinosaurs - The Live Experience is brought to North America by The Creature Production Company, headed by CEO Carmen Pavlovic. Pavlovic said, "The BBC Series was a brilliant blend of special effects, escapism, excitement and information. Our show has that - and it's live. In this show, fifteen roaring, snarling "live" dinosaurs mesmerize the audience - and are as awe-inspiring as when they first walked on earth." Pavlovic continued, "This is a show that could only fit in arenas - as the creatures are so absolutely immense in size. Audiences seated in the lower seats are all but overwhelmed by the dinosaurs, while those seated in higher seats can view the entire spectacle and panorama of the production. It is the closest you'll ever get to experiencing what it was like when they walked and ruled the earth." After years of planning, Walking With Dinosaurs came to life at Sydney's Acer Arena on January 10, 2007. The show has already proved itself such a sensation, that the North American tour was fast-tracked. Ten species are represented from the entire 200 million year reign of the dinosaurs. The show includes the Tyrannosaurus Rex, the terror of the ancient terrain, as well as the Plateosaurus and Liliensternus from the Triassic period, the Stegosaurus and Allosaurus from the Jurassic period and Torosaurus and Utahraptor from the awesome Cretaceous. The largest of them, the Brachiosaurus is 45 feet tall, and 75 feet from nose to tail. It took a team of 50 - including engineers, fabricators, skin makers, artists and painters, and animatronic experts - a year to build the original production. Variety said, "The dinosaurs are stunning, life-size and faultlessly nimble. In act one, the beasts parade into the arena gnashing and cavorting as a safari-suited paleontologist describes their attributes ... in the second half, the action cranks up, culminating in a spectacular clash as a T-Rex mom defends her baby from predators. Sonny Tilders' triumphant creature design ensures Walking With Dinosaurs is a truly spectacular spectacular. It is everything a dino-phile could want." The show depicts the dinosaurs' evolution, complete with the climatic and tectonic changes that took place, which led to the demise of many species. With almost cinematic realism, Walking With Dinosaurs has scenes of the interactions between dinosaurs, and the audience sees how carnivorous dinosaurs evolved to walk on two legs, and how the herbivores fended off their more agile predators. The history of the world is played out with the splitting of the earth's continents, and the transition from the arid desert of the Triassic period is given over to the lush green prairies and forces of the later Jurassic. Oceans form, volcanoes erupt, a forest catches fire -- all leading to the massive comet, which struck the earth, and forced the extinction of the dinosaurs.

2008 CMA Awards winners were announced live from the Sommet Center in Nashville on November 12, 2008. Kenny Chesney was crowned with his fourth Entertainer of The Year Award, and Brad Paisley and Sugarland’s Jennifer Nettles each took home two trophies. George Strait become the most awarded artist in CMA Awards history (22), winning Single of they Year for “I Saw God Today” and Album of the Year for Troubadour. “I love this album and I really appreciate everyone who bought it,” the humble Strait said after accepting his second Award of the night. “Everyone says they’ve got the greatest fans. Well, I really got the greatest fans.” 2008 CMA Awards Winners:
ENTERTAINER OF THE YEAR
MALE VOCALIST OF THE YEAR
FEMALE VOCALIST OF THE YEAR
SINGLE OF THE YEAR
MUSICIAN OF THE YEAR
Kenny Chesney’s fourth Entertainer of the Year Award ties Garth Brooks’ record for the most wins in the category. “As much as tonight is about Awards I really believe that being able to stand up here is more about great songs; it’s more about the fans,” Chesney said. “This is my fourth time standing up here and I am really humbled.” Earlier in the broadcast, Chesney brought out reggae group The Wailers to perform an island-flavored medley that combined Chesney’s “Everybody Wants to Go to Heaven” and Bob Marley’s classic “Three Little Birds.” Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood co-hosted the gala event live on the ABC Television Network from the Sommet Center in Downtown Nashville. Paisley remarked that he and Underwood “both grew up watching the CMA’s each and every year,” with Underwood joking, “We’re new at this job so they can kick us out at any minute.” But it turns out that “Country Music’s Biggest Night” was very good to its hosts. Paisley picked up his second Male Vocalist and fourth Music Video of the Year Award for “Waitin’ on a Woman,” featuring legendary actor Andy Griffith and directed by Jim Shea and Peter Tilden. “I won’t take long,” Paisley said with his signature sense of humor. “I’ve talked enough.” Backstage, Paisley expressed excitement about Griffith’s first CMA Awards win. “I can’t wait to talk to him about it. I’m sure he is thrilled.” Underwood nabbed her third consecutive Female Vocalist of the Year Award. Upon accepting her Award, Underwood thanked those in the music industry who voted for her. “I got through here in an unconventional way and you guys didn’t have to accept me,” she said. One of the most touching moments of the night was when Leslie Ponder, whose husband was killed in combat in Afghanistan, introduced Underwood’s performance of “Just a Dream.” First-time Entertainer nominees Sugarland picked up their second consecutive Vocal Duo of the Year Award and lead singer Jennifer Nettles snagged her first Song of the Year Award for writing the duo’s heart-wrenching single “Stay.” “You never know when you come up here if you are ever going to get to come up here again,” Nettles said about their Vocal Duo win. “So we are very thankful.” Nettles and partner Kristian Bush later brought the house down with the powerful performance of “Love” from their third consecutive Platinum album Love on the Inside. With their win for Vocal Group of the Year, Rascal Flatts tied The Statler Brothers for most consecutive wins in the category with six. The Statlers still hold the record for most total wins for Vocal Group with nine. Gary LeVox, Jay DeMarcus and Joe Don Rooney lavished praise repeatedly on the people that got them where they are today. “We thank all of our fans,” LeVox said. “Again all of our fans, again all of our fans, again all of our fans.” Lady Antebellum picked up the coveted New Artist of the Year Award (formerly Horizon Award) after performing their breakout hit “Love Don’t Live Here.” “It’s very humbling,” said group member Hillary Scott backstage with partners Dave Haywood and Charles Kelley. “We do not take this lightly at all. We have so much to prove.” The other performers nominated for New Artist of the Year included Kellie Pickler with the sassy “Best Days of Your Life,” James Otto singing “Just Got Started Loving You,” Jason Aldean with the rocking “She’s Country,” and Rodney Atkins offering a little slice of his backyard in “It’s America.” In the pre-telecast ceremony, CMA Awards were given to two first-time winners - Mac McAnally for Musician of the Year and Robert Plant, who won the Musical Event of the Year Award with Alison Krauss for “Gone Gone Gone (Done Moved On).” Paisley and fellow Entertainer and Male Vocalist of the Year nominee Keith Urban opened the show with their new vocal/guitar duet “Start a Band” from Paisley’s Play album and then broke up later in the broadcast to each go solo. Urban performed “Sweet Thing” while Paisley offered CMA Award-winning song “Waitin’ On a Woman.” Fellow Male Vocalist nominee Alan Jackson brought along a few dozen friends to line dance to his party anthem “Good Time.” The Female Vocalist of the Year nominees showed why women in Country Music are a force to be reckoned with. Taylor Swift acted out a fairytale complete with Prince Charming in her performance of “Love Story,” Martina McBride belted “Ride,” and Miranda Lambert offered the poignant “More Like Her.” Vocal Duo of the Year nominees Brooks & Dunn got a little help from Musical Event of the Year nominee Reba McEntire to help perform “Cowgirls Don’t Cry.” Vocal Group of the Year nominees the Eagles made a return trip to the CMA Awards, performing “Busy Being Fabulous” from their wildly successful Country effort Long Road Out of Eden. Two-time nominee Trace Adkins performed his hit “You’re Gonna Miss This.” Country Music was infused with a little rock - Kid Rock. The Detroit native performed his mega hit “All Summer Long.” Former Hootie and the Blowfish lead singer Darius Rucker showed his Country side performing No. 1 hit “Don’t Think I Don’t Think About It.” A little bit of Hollywood came to Nashville in the form of Awards presenters, including the stars of the upcoming film epic “Australia” Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman, “Hannah Montana” stars Billy Ray and Miley Cyrus, and Reese Witherspoon, who appears in the forthcoming holiday comedy “Four Christmases.” Shania Twain made a special appearance, her first on the CMA Awards since 2005, to present the Entertainer of the Year Award and received a standing ovation from the audience. Other presenters on “Country Music’s Biggest Night” included Vince Gill, Julianne Hough, Heidi Newfield, Jake Owen, John Rich, Josh Turner, Jimmy Wayne, and Lee Ann Womack.
