Kellie Pickler Volunteers At Food Bank

Kellie Pickler Shows Support While Volunteering At Second Harvest Food Bank. Kellie Pickler is currently the national spokesperson for the Con Agra Foods Foundation Hunger-Free Summer program, and so, she took out some time and showed her support by volunteering at the middle Tennessee Second Harvest Food Bank. The goal of the program and Pickler’s involvement is to help spread the word about child hunger in the United States. Because of her involvement, Kellie herself has become aware of issues that no doubt many other Americans are also unaware of. “I was really surprised at how many kids go hungry during the summertime, just because they rely on the school meals for food,” -Kellie Pickler While volunteering, she helped by working alongside local volunteers and provide nutritious meals for low-income families. The volunteers included adults and children as they filled backpacks with food and packed lunches. “It really is good for the kids to be a part of (volunteering), too, to just show them how blessed they are…It makes you more appreciative of what you have.” -Kellie Pickler Has Kellie inspired you?

Scotty McCreery Sings with Tim McGraw

Posted on by

Tim McGraw Brings Out Scotty McCreery at SC “Brothers of the Son” Tour Stop. Okay, so we all know that Scotty McCreery has been launched into stardom because of American Idol. Yes, its possible we would of heard about him eventually…but it would have been a completely different story. Now, we all have our opinions about this young man (and let’s be honest, everyone who performs on that show…), but I’ve got to say, that he must have made some kind of an impression if all these country music veterans are so willingly performing with him left and right. Not only has Scotty been on tour with Brad Paisley‘s 2012 international Virtual Reality Tour, but now the still very young star is making cameos on the Brothers of the Sun Tour. Over the weekend at the South Carolina tour stop, Tim McGraw brought McCreery out to perform classic “I Like, I Love It“…and the crowd clearly ate that right up. This tour has been highly anticipated by country music fans, and it is a really big deal for Scotty to get to be involved with it (on top of everything else he is getting to do…). You can check out the fan video below…but you’ll have to turn it up a bit as it is a little hard to hear over the screaming girls. Scotty McCreery Sings Tim McGraw’s “I Like, I Love It”.

Zac Brown Band and Alan Jackson at BamaJam 2012

Posted on by

Zac Brown Band, Alan Jackson and Many More at BamaJam 2012, Day 2! After we had to deal with the big storm that blew through on Day 1 of BamaJam 2012, we were ready for a fresh start on Day 2! Luckily for us, there weren’t any other big hiccups the rest of the weekend, and the second day full of music and fun turned out great! Not only did we get to see the likes of Ronnie Milsap, Alan Jackson and Zac Brown Band live and in person, but we also discovered a lot of new and upcoming talent that we just can’t get enough of! Southern Ground Took Over! They could have easily renamed that second day of the festival “Southern Ground Artists” Day. This is Zac Brown’s label, and they basically just took over the Ram Stage for most of the day. We got to check out folks like Levi Lowrey, Nic Cowan, and Sonia Leigh, all with an amazing amount of talent and passion. The thing I love about the Southern Ground artists is that it is clear they are in it for the music and not the fame or fortune. This gives their songs a realness that you don’t get from just anyone. I look forward to hearing more from the all of these guys (and girl)! Another high point for the day was getting to meet Casey James and then check out his set. You’d think that after Idol fame, and a few years in the business James might be a little weathered at this point. The reality couldn’t be further from the truth…he was ready to meet with fans and press in good humor and with a smile on his face! He even teased me a little for almost falling over (I’m clumsy…and the ground wasn’t stable!). My appreciation for Casey just continued to grow while watching him perform. He is a really great live performer and his music sounds just as good (if not better) live as on his record. Three Unforgettable Performances! As great as it always is to meet fresh and up and coming talent though, I was basically blown away by the next three acts we saw on stage…this being Ronnie Milsap, Alan Jackson and Zac Brown Band. Ronnie Milsap is nothing short of amazing. His tunes are classic, but he performs them as if they just released yesterday! Besides the music though, I was really entertained by the commentary Milsap shared throughout his set. He took his time to introduce each of the band members, chatted about their music and records they are releasing, and the way he did it was just really funny, like he had all the time in the world. I guess you spend as much time on stage as he has, and you just kind of stop worrying about the schedules and the huge crowds and just kind of do your thing. Continuing the iconic country music artist theme…Alan Jackson took the stage not Continue reading Zac Brown Band and Alan Jackson at BamaJam 2012→

Kenny Chesney Look A Like Removed From Concert

Posted on by

Kenny Chesney Fan and Possible Body Double Removed from Recent Concert In Nashville. Over the weekend there was a bit of a misunderstanding at Kenny Chesney‘s “Brothers of the Sun” Tour stop in Nashville. A fan, Nathan Blankenship, was accused of being a Chesney impersonator and causing a disruption among the fans. His ticket was confiscated and he was removed from LP Field. Chesney’s social media managers released the following statement on Facebook this morning indicating that the Kenny team had nothing to do with Blankenship’s dismissal from the concert. Kenny Chesney Facebook Press Release: Pretty bizarre, right? Well, take a look at Nathan next to Kenny (photo courtesy Nashville Gab. Kenny Chesney and Nathan Blankenship: See a resemblance? Seems Odd To Me… I suppose I can see why the venue managers could get upset…maybe. But the thing is LP Field is huge, how did they spot this guy in the first place? Also, aside from creating a riot, how much of a fuss could he have made? He looks a lot like Kenny Chesney, but not necessarily enough for fans to freak out to the point that they cause enough trouble and Blankenship would be forced to leave. I’m glad to hear that someone is trying to fix this up with the fan, and that Chesney’s team is communicating with fans about it. What do ya’ll think? Should he have been thrown out? Or is this just silliness?

Brad Paisley Heads To Scandinavia

Brad Paisley Takes Virtual Reality Tour To Scandinavia! There are a lot of ways to tell whether or not you’ve made it big, but I think that Brad Paisley booking shows in…Scandinavia…is a pretty good indicator.

Paisley actually headed to this region in 2011 and things went so well that he is headed back again. He has added four additional dates to his inter nation Virtual Reality World Tour for 2012, and The Band Perry will be along for the ride! Check complete dates below, and Sweden and Norway…you better get ready!
