CRS Nashville: A Photo Essay

Every year, in the first week of March, many radio, record, and music pros come together at Country Radio Seminar in Nashville, Tennessee.  During the day, great seminars on how to make radio better for listeners... at night, a musical party ensures!  Here's what trouble I could stir up!  (Pictures taken on my iphone)

Ronnie Dunn's Barn to listen to some new tracks that only a few folks have ever heard.

Afterwards, a send off in the backyard... The barn is red, because of the song "Bleed Red" ... get it...

...and red fireworks!

The mother church of country... The Ryman Auditorium

RCA's Studio B... Elvis recorded about half his catalog here.  You can't see it, but behind me is the piano that Floyd Cramer used in "Last Date," and recorded in this studio.

Heard some new Chris Young tunes while in Studio B... good stuff!

Laura Bell Bundy

Can't believe I ran into Vince Gill.... his story on "Amie" is that his voice is not on the record... he became part of the band after that song became a hit.

If you were to knock on this door, Martina McBride might answer.

Ronnie Dunn threw this guitar pick into the crowd... and it smacked me square in the face!

Yes, that is Gweneth!  I was at the front row table at the "Sony Boat Show" on the Gen. Jackson Boat

Then Tim McGraw shows up!

Then Brad Paisley crashes the party!

Alabama closes it out with Brad on stage!

Dinner show with LeAnn Rimes

I need one of these at home to do yardwork and chores!

Thank you Nashville!  Good times!

Stories coming soon on the next ToddOnAir podcast!
