Record Time to Watch CMA Award Show
Let's see who can watch the CMA Awards Show the the longest. I will start 23 Min. That far I wasn't sure if it was the sequel to the NFL BEyounce Show LOL

Well so far; there has been ZERO Pedal Steel Guitar. So obviously all those "so to speak: Country Singers" don't know that pedal steel guitar is THE DEFINING INSTRUMENT IN COUNTRY MUSIC....Period. But non of them would know that because none of them have learned about the HISTORY of Country Music and how it came to be.
(btw; none of us original austinites live in Austin anymore; I live in Buda, Tx(it's where Jimmy Day lived before he passed)......ah...ha...

p.s. just posted this and Big Jelly has a pedal steel player for the gospel show 8:45pm central time.
p.s.s; just finished and of course you could not hear pedal steel and made no impact on what ever kind of song that turned out to be.

Oh - you’re talking about the CMT (Country Music Television) Awards, not the CMA which happens I think late in the year.
It’s not on for another hour here in California, but I decided to record it on the DVR and might check it out later tonight before I go to bed.
I think of the DVR as the greatest invention for television since color and the remote control - because there is no way I can watch these things in real time along with suffering through commercials.
But through the beauty of the fast forward button sometimes one can find a few gems in these award shows.

I think of the garage sale as the greatest invention for television. Purged my domicile of its nearly new flat-screen 25" Sony Trintron for about $20 in 2002, and to be perfectly honest, hadn't missed it since the '70s.Mark Eaton wrote:I think of the DVR as the greatest invention for television since color and the remote control...

Probably less than 30 seconds. Saw a woman, I would associate with a pop/rock show, prancing around. That was enough for me.

Well, at least we tried I recorded all of the commercial bumps going into break(One was heavy C6th swing first thing, and another was a country 4/4 shuffle steel solo) as well as accompanying Megan Moroney, Nate Smith, Lily Rose, Avery Anna, Chapel Hart, and Jackson Dean in the staff band. Four of which were on pedal steel. I thought everyone did a good job. Pulling off a live show this size with multiple stages, acts with their own road bands, along with lights/pyro/video in a new location outside of where we normally film is pretty hard to do. I'm thankful for the job and to make a living from it. I always strive, no matter what the situation calls for in the work place, to make the employer happy and to make the song/artist come to life. I'll try to feature the steel in any way shape I can to make it shine, but I have to consider the context it's accompanying. A lot of variables are at play including the other instruments in the band, engineer, the demo of the song, where everyone in the room is going, and the audio aesthetic. And if it's like doing a show like this, then everyone involved is committed to sticking to the record.
If people want to support steel guitar and traditional country music, go out and spend the money/time on the artists who play it. I produced this Tim Bolo song at my new recording studio I put in my house. The new music from the rest of the album Dennis Crouch is making(He's playing upright on this particular song) with Russ Pahl and I. To me, I enjoy making this kind of music and arranging it just as much as pop country or anything else. Whatever the listener enjoys, and if it features steel guitar... EVEN BETTER

Can someone who has a better knowledge of music than me give an objective analysis of how the current music people refer to as country differs from the country music of the 50's through the 90's? For example are there different chords which predominate, are the rhythmic structure different, etc. Thanks!

My recorder on my dish network gets all the local stations, but ABC. I thought I should try to watch it since I could fast forward anything I did not care for. I watched long enough to see them list who was going to be on. then I turned it off.
Eddy this is a great sound. I love it.
By the way I make it a point to record Penny Gilley and Tru Country.

Good question Darrell. I'd like to see someone tackle this.Darrell Criswell wrote:Can someone who has a better knowledge of music than me give an objective analysis of how the current music people refer to as country differs from the country music of the 50's through the 90's?

I'm always torn when these award shows come up. Ambivalence between wanting to watch, listen to and support my brother steel guitar players and enduring the spectacle.
I'm just sorry the musicians, particularly the steel players, don't have better fare to work with.
I watched long enough to see some pretty scantily clad lady and her fans with massive body etchings and that superstar country music icon Jelly Roll get their awards. I had to go, couldn't go for the looks of these performers and presenters nor most of the music doled out.
All just one big mess. That's my opinion.
I didn't watch it this year-I don't watch much TV anyway, but I only watched the show back when my friend Katie Cook was hosting on the CMT network. CMT was the station that introduced me to country music and the steel guitar. In the eighties and nineties, I watched the station a lot because I loved the videos. Two of my favorite artists were on the show-Carly Pearce and Wynonna. I'd love to see Danni Leigh on TV again, a great artist who loves the steel guitar! I also miss seeing closeups of the steel guitar
