How David Nail Met Hillary Scott of Lady Antebellum

David Nail is hitting the road with Lady Antebellum this fall and the story behind how they met is pretty funny.

The Daily Dunklin got the scoop on how David first hit it off with Hillary:

“I’ve known those guys for years,” Nail said. “I first met Hillary [Scott] downtown one Sunday night. I really had no clue who she was. I saw her sitting in with the house band somewhere and I immediately called the head of the [recording] staff at my record label and told him that if he was smart, he would come down and see this girl and I thought she was a superstar.

“I had never done anything like that before so I feel like he kind of thought maybe it was pretty important. So he did [come to the location] and he immediately walked through the door and called me an idiot and said, ‘That is Hillary Scott from Lady Antebellum.’”

Nail said he had began to hear some of the hype about the group and he introduced himself to Scott.

“We became really good friends right away,” Nail said. “She is quite possibly the sweetest girl you’ll ever meet. I’ve had the privilege to get to know the other guys in the band since then. So I guess there has always be that friendship there first and foremost. They are arguably one of the most successful acts in music, period. Not just country music.

They kind of decided to embark on a headlining tour of their own this fall and when it came time to pick an opening act, I guess they not only probably like me as a person, but liked what I do musically and it fit in with what they do. So I think that it was somewhat of a natural pairing.”

Nail said the tour will consist of 32-dates.

David Nail- ‘Thoughts on “Turning Home”‘

David Nail took to his Facebook page to discuss the thoughts on “Turning Home.” Not necessarily even the song…just turning home in general. As someone who’s flew the coop at 17 and only been back for brief visits, it really does hit home.

I learn for Kennett, Missouri a little more with each passing day. I find myself trying to talk my wife into moving back to my hometown in about every other conversation we share. Playing so many county fairs this summer, has forced me to reflect on my time growing up. I can vividly remember the excitement over catfish sandwiches, or the taffy that you tried to stock up on to last throughout the entire year, and yet it simply lasted until the end of the month. I was so ready to leave that little town. It would simply hold me down, and keep me from even remotely touching my potential. I’ve stayed in the finest hotels, drank expensive wines and tasted the most famous foods from some of the country’s most revered restaurants. Yet it’s the simple things like McCormick’s Steakhouse after Sunday service, pulling out your best Polo shirt for Friday night’s game against Senath-Hornersville, or the Hayti and Dexter cheerleaders every Bloomfield Christmas Tournament, that nearly bring a tear to my eyes here high above the clouds. I love my hometown. I love being from Missouri. One of my favorite moments every night on stage is introducing my band, and speaking of where I was born and raised. I assume most people feel the same, whether they care to admit, or even currently realize it, but I think the emotion and pride I feel is superior to most. I say this not trying to offend, but simply trying to describe the depths of my love.

Now, I’ve been home since I’ve left….but the thing I have come to realize is that we can’t go back “home.” I mean…physically we can, but it wasn’t moving away that changed things, it was moving-on…growing-up. There are a few places I can go back and revel in the familiar sounds, smells, and flavors; but ultimately when I go back it doesn’t live-up to the adolescent memories. However, every time I go home it brings the memories back full-blast…And that’s the beauty of “Turning Home”…Remembering where we came from.

You can read David’s full post here. There’s so much more to marvel at.

The Battle of the Grand Ole Opry & After Midnite with Blair Garner

The friendly battle between the Grand Ole Opry and the After Midnite with Blair Garner teams continued tonight at Greer Stadium in Nashville.  Known as the “unofficial kickoff” to CMA Fest, the City of Hope Celebrity Softball Challenge is always a crowd pleaser.  With big names like Carrie Underwood, Chuck Wicks, Craig Morgan, David Nail, Jason Aldean, Joe Nichols, Josh Thompson, Luke Bryan, Mallary Hope, Melissa Peterman, The Band Perry, Whitney Duncan, and many others fans know they are in for a treat.

For the last 21 years the Softball Challenge has helped raise funds and awareness for City of Hope’s lifesaving mission (http://www.cityofhope.org).

For the first 4 innings of the game you would have thought it was going to be a total shut-out with the Grand Ole Opry team not holding back and leading 10 -4.  But the trash talk and friendly bantering must have given the After Midnite team just the motivation they needed.  With a huge comeback in the 6th inning the After Midnite team tied up the game and came back to win in an extra inning!

The final score:
After Midnite with Blair Garner Team – 15
Grand Ole Opry Team – 10

A big surprise for fans tonight was seeing Carrie Underwood’s fiance, Mike Fisher, added to the Grand Ole Opry lineup.   To help celebrate their recent engagement, Blair Garner and her team members treated Carrie and Mike to a surprise bridal shower on the field.   With gifts like towels, bowls and hand clean up items thrown at the couple they almost forgot there was a ball game being played.

The evening was full of great surprises and fun had by all for a great cause.  For more information about City of Hope please visit their website at: http://www.cityofhope.org.
