Charles, my story (true) is the girl who got up and wanted to sing "Crazy" and I asked her what key and she said "soprano".

kelly has never impressed me as much as she has many of my friends. ...but i love everything vince does. he's a beautiful, talented, sensitive soul!

unfortunately for many upcoming acts, i judge them partly by seeing how they stack up against vince and alison krauss, who are two of the finest spirits in music.

Sounded more like R&B than country to me. The genre will continue to be bastardized until it completely loses any distinguishing identity it ever had..

Oh I liked it Theresa, it just seemed out of place to me - not country, but on a country awards show. It's a free society, but I never was much in favor of (musical) genre mixing in this setting. Just sayin'...

I didn't say that nobody ever did it, I just said I was not a fan of it, especially on awards shows.. :\

I think Randle was playing his blonde shobud. Did anyone get a better look. Hard to tell with those lights going gang busters. LOL

Jay was a rockin that prett blue Mullen Discovery on Jasons set.

Good southern rock song.

What emotion Lady A had singing the Willy tribute you could tell Willy was moved by that. In fact they all did a great job. Very entertaining.
Good steel work behind Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, I wonder who it was? Some good 'Moon' chops in there :)

With Tim and Faith, it was probably Denny Hemingson. He's been Tim's steel player for quite awhile now.

I will quietly fade into the sunset, listening to Willie, Faron, Patsy, Ferlin, Miss Minny, Roy and many other true country stars.

Today's are unreasonable facsimiles of the people who came before them and paved the way.

I loved early Willie and he's deserving of all his awards! The artist that sing his songs are doing a good job and are showing respect. :)
