XM goes crazy with 2008 CMA Music Festival broadcasts

| 12 Comments
Sara EvansXM is going nuts with live broadcasts, special events, and live concerts from this year's Country Music Association's (CMA) Music Festival.

Starting today through Monday, June 9th, XM will be the exclusive radio broadcast outlet to many popular "Fan Club" parties. XM has covered the Fan Club parties several times over the years.

Fan Club parties for Sara Evans (pictured), Keith Anderson, Josh Turner, Phil Vassar, Rodney Atkins, Joe Nichols, Jo Dee Messina, Tracy Lawrence, Tracy Byrd, Mark Chesnutt, Mark Wills, and Emerson Drive will all be broadcast on XM's Highway 16 (ch 16).

This year XM will also broadcast live concert performances direct from the Chevy Music Stage at the Sommet Center Plaza, beginning with the Chevy Kick-Off Parade and Block Party Concert on Wednesday, June 4th, featuring Keith Anderson, Luke Bryan, Joe Nichols, James Otto, Chris Young, Phil Stacey, and the Zac Brown Band.

XM will air the daily live concert entertainment on Highway 16, as well as on X Country (ch 12) and Bluegrass Junction (ch 14).

And then there's coverage of the Seventh Annual "Marty Stuart Late Night Jam," which will feature concert performances by XM program host Marty Stuart, with the Charlie Daniels Band and Sunny Sweeney, among others. This will air on America (ch 10) as well as on X Country.

Additionally, XM will broadcast Second Annual Songwriters Showcase Concerts to benefit Musicians On Call, live from the Hard Rock Cafe.

Can't keep track of it all? A full list of CMA Music Festival events and broadcast times is available here.

Woof!

SatRad radio fanboys have all the fun!

Good lord she's hot.

Wow! That's what she looks like?

That picture is NOT cool!!!

I so approve the merger

Country is about the only music that is still music.

Goddamn, that is a hot 30 year old. I mean Sara Evans makes guys visit the dry cleaner in that picture to get out the stains (in Dice Clay's voice) - ohhh!

I would censor that picture...

The CMA week is something that XM does amazingly well, year after year, and is something you'd never see on regular radio.

When the merger goes through, XM's country channels should be the ones kept as Jon Anthony and the crew do an amazing job.

Yes, as you can see I am trying to burn thru shareholder's money as fast as Panero did and have as good a time at it. None of this stuff gets us subs or affects churn but it sure is a fun way to waste a million bucks.

just simply too hot for words....................

Girls are for losers!!
