CMA Music Fest 2011--- Anyone Watching?

[teesharky]

So far it is really good. I loved Brad's performance of Working on a Tan to open the show.

Big & Rich and Gretchen were great too, and The Band Perry did well too.

Sara Evans did a nice job on Stronger, and Keith Urban was hot as hell as always. lol

Not sure if I missed anyone yet. lol


gosh I wish Carrie had been there.

[hjj]

I watched TBP so far but only watching those that I want to see. I would like to see Scotty and Lauren in their debut there.

[robinannhunt]

I am not watching.

[CarrieFan_01]

I've been watching while waiting for Big Brother to come on.

I started cracking up when The Band Perry was performing, my Mom just yells out, "She puts Taylor Swift to shame!!!"

[carriecountrystar]

maybe it will be aired later, to our surprise of a super super duper secret performance Carrie and Brad did for RM!!
lol... in my dreams. heh sorry I'm just on edge, anticipating ever so much for that live performance!

[AdamJ]

Nope---I am using my time to vote/request/stream RM and try to give it the push it needs. I have not been able to do my share and this is one time I can help out---and will be able to do so until Fall semester.

[lsmil104]

I'm watching, so far so good!

[teesharky]

I am going to skip all the Taylor stuff--- not wasting my time.

True Blood is on now too...but I am taping that so it is all good. lol

Sugarland had a big message on the screen, saying pre-recorded June 10, 2011. They kept it up there a while.

I think they were trying to ensure that everyone knew Sugarland was not there tonight, and this was not live, after what happened yesterday.

[carriecountrystar]

I watched Lady A earlier on! I wonder if there will be any more showings of them later on?

[abbeyjones18]

I'm flipping back and forth between this and Big Brother, lol.

[teesharky]

gosh I love my fast forward button. lol

I loved Zac BB and Sugarland, etc. Did not bother to watch one note of SWSRN. lol

[teesharky]

I bet Lady A will be on again. They did great with Just a Kiss.

Most big names are doing 2 songs....so Lady A will likely be back.

[AIgrl06]

I'm watchinggg.

[Carrieflattsfan]

I watched Sara because my Mom called me down. Haha. She sounded good and looked amazing though.

I only really wanted to watch Rascal Flatts- I thought Gary sounded awesome on "I Won't Let Go," but I was kind of disappointed by how they filmed all the lighters/lights during the performance.
It was cool to look at, but it just didn't translate as well as I thought it could've- people who were there said it was an incredible sight in person.

And I really liked the meledy with LBT- but unfortunately I got to spend most of it listening to my parents complain- "why are they doing cover songs when they have so many good ones?"

It's Rascal Flatts...as if they think I care what they sing? They should know, having lived through 11 years of my fandom. Shame.

[teesharky]

I was extremely impressed with Rascal Flatts tonight! That was so beautiful having the lights all over like that! Loved it!

also-- the duet with LBT was really really good. LBT remains the most under-rated band ever.

I even liked Dierks tonight. lol

[Pi314CA]

I've been watching while waiting for Big Brother to come on.

I started cracking up when The Band Perry was performing, my Mom just yells out, "She puts Taylor Swift to shame!!!"

That's funny. A while back, when I heard "If I Die Young" during its initial days on the radio, I thought "who is that singing? It sounds like Taylor except much better. Did Taylor improve her singing?? Then, the DJ said it was TBP."

[carriefan13]

Oh, I'm going to Keith's show on Saturday--so excited

[buckeyecarriefan]

<3 Alabama.

They're what all country groups these days should strive to be like.

[stEEvz3314]

I can't wait to watch it! I have it recorded on my DVR!

[teesharky]

Reba has still got it. Great performance.

Darius Rucker is always consistent. Nice job.

LBT rocked as always. So happy to see them there tonight.

Martina and Lauren, Scotty & Josh Turner, was awesome. Absolutely loved it.

What is making tonight tolerable is that they stuck Taylor all at once in the middle so I could FF past her, and never see her again the rest fo the night. Nice job, CMAS. lol

That one year, they had SWSRN perform 4 times, and I wanted to throw my tv out the window.
