CMA Nominations Part 2

I am concluding my predictions on the tomorrow’s CMA Awards Show. Let’s not waste any time.
The Vocal Group of the Year Award has usually been reserved for Rascal Flatts. Unstoppable has accrued a #1 hit  with “Here Comes Goodbye” and a #2 hit with “Summer Night,” but “Why” hasn’t really taken off. The guys better [...]

The CMA Awards Are Very Predictable

Oh, if only the CMA awards could be like college football. Jamey Johnson would beat out Brad Paisley. Miranda Lambert would pull a huge upset against Taylor Swift. Unfortunately, there are no come-from-behind victories at the CMA’s. Most of the “little people” do not even get to compete. So, I am going to appease the [...]

Country Music and Fishing

The dogwoods are blooming. The water temperature is rising. You start feeling an itch than can only be relieved by one thing, the feel of a 5 pound bass on the end of your monofilament line. Fishing has always been my favorite pasttime. My roommates think that it is ridiculous that I watch fishing shows. All I [...]

Country Music News At Lightening Speed

Well here we go again, Country Music News so hard-hitting, Chris Brown has nothing on us.
Us Weekly is probably the most reputable magazine on the newsstand. Fact-checking is for morons. You want the gospel truth, you should read Us Weekly. You probably already know that they have broken an incredible story on LeAnn Rhimes’ extra-marital [...]

42nd CMA Awards

Today I was looking at the list of nominees for this year’s 42nd Country Music Awards.  As usual I am not surprised by this year’s nominees and as as usual I am going to make my predictions.  Last year Top Female Vocalist went to Carrie Underwood, rightfully so, in my opinion.  This year I think [...]
