Taylor Swift Invites Teen to ACM Awards

Posted on by

Taylor Swift Has Got Herself a Date to the ACM Awards. Taylor Swift has invited fan, Kevin McGuire, to attend the ACM Awards with her! Kevin is an 18yr old from Somerdale, NJ, who is suffering from leukemia. Swift’s invite comes in response to the Facebook campaign created by McGuire’s sister. The teen hoped that Taylor would attend his prom with him, but in a post written by Swift, she stated that she couldn’t make it to the prom. I think an invite to the ACM Awards in Vegas could just as easily lead to a night Kevin would cherish! Regardless of whether or not you’re a fan of her music, you can’t deny that it takes a generous and cool person to invite a fan to an industry award show. Taylor is currently nominated for three ACMs. Click here for the complete list.

Chris Young Caricature Unveiling

Chris Young’s Caricature Is Unveiled At The Nashville Palm. On February 22, Chris Young autographed a caricature of himself on the wall of The Nashville Palm. He will be a permanent fixture on the walls of the restaurant, with fellow country artists and more. “Chris is a great addition to our since he has participated in several fundraising events at The Palm for Make A Wish Foundation of Middle Tennessee as well as Stars for Stripes. We’re honored that Chris could stop by in the midst of CRS week and his national tour. We’re proud that he’ll be a permanent fixture here.” -Paige Dixon, sales manager for The Palm The caricature tradition started when Pio Bozzi and John Ganzi opened The Palm in 1926. They had no money to decorate and offered meals in exchange for cartoon work by artists. Today all Palm locations feature a variety of caricatures of celebrities, politicians, athletes, regular customers and people of note as well as classic cartoons. “The Palm is such a mainstay in this city and in the music community. It’s pretty cool to be part of this Nashville institution.” -Chris Young

Wade Bowen Saturday Night Video

Posted on by

Here Is The Music Video For Wade Bowen’s “Saturday Night!” Wade Bowen’s latest single, “Saturday Night,” was released at the end of 2011. The song has become one of my favorites here lately! The lyrics are about a broken-hearted guy who isn’t really feeling crowds, bars or the 6th day of the week, because they are taking him down memory lane. One of the best lines in the song says, “there’s nothing quite as lonely as a crowd when your all alone.” How true is this statement?! Very! Here is the recently released video for the acoustic version of “Saturday Night!” Take a listen and tell us what you think!
