April 12, 2012 Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster, aliens from outer space, and the 'chupacabra' are all legends that just about everyone has heard of. Whether you believe in the creature known as the "chupacabra" or not, it apparently makes a great story for television.
April 11, 2012 I guess since I'm in radio it probably isn't a good idea to be talking about television. But, what the heck, I can't help myself. I just feel like I should spread the word when a promising young country performer gets a chance to expose his or her talent, especially on a national scale.
April 10, 2012 Even though he hasn't achieved a high degree of commercial success, it is impossible to deny the popularity of Shooter Jennings in Texas. Just take a look at his tour schedule (below) as he tours with Cody Canada and the Departed. Tonight he takes a huge step towards capturing that national audience and commercial success.
April 10, 2012 There are a lot of things that come with fame... some of them are really cool, some others, not so much. Just ask Taylor Swift. Her recent experience with the people from "Punk'D" just about pushed her over the edge.

March 23, 2012 Yay!! Another awards show is on the horizon!! We've been through this before and, by now, you probably know how I feel about awards shows. But, just in case you don't, here's a little refresher; #1... I think music is an art and I don't think we need 'art contests'. #2... There are way too many awards shows. That being said, I'll be watching just like you.
CBS’ afternoon talk show ‘The Talk’ is getting a bit of a country makeover — but only for one week. In honor of the 2012 Academy of Country Music Awards, the show, which stars hosts Sharon Osbourne, Julie Chen, Leah Remini and Sheryl Underwood, is going country. The hosts will invite a cast of celebrity country acts to come perform, co-host and, well, talk with them during the week leading up to the 47th Annual ACM Awards.
March 21, 2012 You just never know where that break is going to come from. I'm sure "The Voice' contestant, Gwen Sebastian, figured it was all over for her when she was eliminated from the show last Monday. Guess again. It appears that big things are just beginning for Gwen.
