Just by the title of this article Cody Barton Camo Jersey , I feel like Andy Rooney from 60 minutes. I grew up watching him with my Grandma, although he looks just the same as he did when I was 3. So last night, when I turned the on the TV and he was there, I thought I would watch him to bring my Grandmother closer to me. Low and behold, he began talking about the packaging and marketing of items, and how companies D.K. Metcalf Camo Jersey , even software companies, have more hype then product. And judging by Fan Fair, I would have to agree with him.

This was my first Fan Fair, so maybe I should give it a few years, but I also got the pulse of the situation from other Fan Fair attendee聮s, the tried and true dedicated fans of Fan Fair. So let me start at the beginning. Being a novice Fan Fair attendee Marquise Blair Camo Jersey , I did all of the wrong things. I didn聮t make reservations, and I didn聮t purchase tickets ahead of time. When I arrived at the airport, there was a woman waiting for me with a sign that had my name on it. (One of the perks of being part of Fan Fair I guess, but trust me, one of the very few! And I am smiling at that!) I arrived at my dear friend聮s house and started to unpack. The next day would be a busy one with the baseball game and some interviews.

When the next day arrived, Nashville was hit by a major thunder and lightening storm and when calling to rent a car L.J. Collier Camo Jersey , there were none available. My first lesson at Fan Fair, reserve a car! So I would be stuck hitching rides with friends or relying on taxi聮s that are very cost prohibitive! The problem was that we couldn聮t get to the baseball game. All the taxi聮s were taking forever and had to be called many times and they still did not show. The one person that was nice enough to come get us didn聮t want to head in that direction because of the storm. Okay, then I would head to the Indie fest that had already begun.

When I arrived at the Indie Fest I met up with some friends from my last European tour and saw Jack Green and Ernie Ashworth, Grand Ole Opry Stars and true stars they are. You really should go check them out at the Grand Ole Opry whenever they are on! I already knew Ernie from touring last year. The Indies?played their hearts out, Sean O'Brien being one of the best I have seen in a long time. What a crooner, and someone else whose show you must check out if he plays in your town! You won聮t be disappointed! And women Michael Dickson Camo Jersey , he聮s a doll! BUT keep your lips for screaming when he sings only, because he is married to a very lovely and sweet wife. The Indies?were backed by some of Nashville聮s finest musicians; Bess Travers who played bass was awesome! 聯The Nashville Players?were there and incredible. Then I was told by someone at Indie fest who was working there, that the Grand Ole Opry Stars who were supposed to be playing at the Indie Fest, all 22 of them, were told they could not play there. I won聮t go into the reason聮s why, but when the crowd found out Shaquem Griffin Camo Jersey , they were disappointed! Stella Parton graced the Indie Fest stage as well as Bobby G. Rice.

After the show, a bunch of us headed down to the famous restaurant, Houston聮s. While the prices were expensive, it was worth every single bite! The food was fabulous and I would recommend anyone visiting Nashville to give it a try! While we were waiting, I ran into Jamie O聮Neil and Neil McCoy (a true cowboy at heart). Neil was very casual and friendly. I thought wow, this is the beginning of what I expected at Fan Fair Chris Carson Camo Jersey , the fans, meeting the stars and Fan Fair hadn聮t really begun yet!

After Houston聮s, we headed down to Broadway, and for those of you not familiar with Nashville, this is where you will find it all. The Ryman is less then a ?block from Broadway, world famous Tootsies is on Broadway and of course is a must see and then there is Legends next door to Tootsies just to name a few. All the bars had no cover charge and some of the best music I have heard in a long time. We danced the night away and landed home around 4 AM. The next day I hit Riverfest that had an inexpensive all day ticket of $10.00. The first 2 hours were acts signed to major Indie labels Russell Wilson Camo Jersey , and let me tell you, some of the acts could not sing on key. It wasn聮t just my musicians?ear that was tweaked, I looked around and the crowd was cringing too! But then acts like T Graham Brown, Joe Stampley and The Great Divide came on and spiced up the crowd, giving renewed hope to audience. They were crowd pleasers and crowd stoppers and everyone loved them.

In between, a DJ from one of the radio stations in Nashville asked the audience how they liked the new venue. The crowd roared a huge boooo Ugo Amadi Rush Jersey , we hate it!? The DJ actually seemed overwhelmed and surprised by the reaction. I decided I would ask one of the people who was sitting beside me why he ough stars and the few stars that actually showed up for something other then the concerts were only there for a brief time. Extremely hard to find parking spots Phil Haynes Rush Jersey , and too much traffic.

My friend took out the Fan Fair booklet and counted only 26 actual signing booths for stars out of the 100 some odd booths in the Adelphia building.
