Nashville Rising-Big Stars Come Out to Support Flood Relief

Last night was the much anticipated Nashville Rising Benefit concert to raise funds and awareness for Nashville Flood Relief. Tim McGraw and Faith Hill used their star power and called in the big guns, beckoning friends to lend their hands, voices, and talents for a concert to raise funds for the Nashville Rising Flood Concert.

The line-up was stellar, and eclectic enough to give everyone something to enjoy. I also have to give props to the crew and the band, The Dance Hall Doctors. No only were the set-changes seamless, but the band hung-out on stage for over 4 hours, playing along with all of the acts.

Each performer sang one or two hits, and Carrie Underwood kicked-off the night. Although everyone did an amazing job, there were several highlights of the night that got the sold-out crowd on their feet. The crowed errupted when Lynyrd Skynyrd sang “Sweet Home Alabama,” Miranda Lambert gave me a surprising case of chill-bumps from a phenomenal version of “The House that Built Me,” and Blake Shelton and Trace Adkins always rowdy-up the crowd with “Hillbilly Bone.” The crowd went nuts when ZZ Top came out to perform “Sharp Dressed Man.”

Surprises of the night….Trace Adkins showing up to perform with Blake, tons of video appearances from Reese Witherspoon, Dolly Parton, and Matthew McConaughey. America’s Sweetheart, Sandra Bullock also made a personal appearance. Looking stunning, and being her usual witty self, Sandra introduced Faith Hill to the stage, but not without a very poor attempt at playing “Smoke on the Water” first.

“Ok who am I kidding,” she said as she put down her instrument. “I can’t play for crap.”

Luke Bryan, Toby Keith, Jason Aldean, Taylor Swift, a very tattooed Billy Ray Cyrus, Martina McBride, Amy Grant, Michael W Smith, Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, and Montgomery Gentry also performed.  Many guests shared their opinions about the lack of media coverage, but all showed pride in their Tennessee ties and roots.

Over all, the event was amazing. And, I’m sure when all is said and done the event will have raised between $2-3 Million for the Community Fund of Nashville.

Taylor Swift Wins BMI Pop Song of the Year

Last night in Los Angeles, Taylor Swift’s “Love Story” was named song of the year at the BMI Pop Awards. The award celebrates the song with the most airplay during the past year. Only 20 years old, Taylor is the youngest songwriter to receive the honor and the first country winner since Stephanie Bentley took home the award for Faith Hill’s “Breathe” in 2000. Dolly Parton and Shania Twain are the other country music artists who’ve taken home the award in the past.

I just think it’s amazing,” Swift told me shortly after her arrival, “to see something go from just a glimmer of an idea as I was sitting on the floor in my bedroom and comparing myself to Romeo and Juliet because my dad didn’t like a guy I wanted to date. I ran to my room, slammed the door and then started writing this song, and now I’m here tonight, getting to wear a sparkly dress.” As she told the audience upon collecting her award, “I’m not much given to fits of temper, but that was one of the few actual tantrums I threw…. So thank you for rewarding that behavior.”

Other winners of the evening were John Fogerty and Lady Gaga.
