CMA Music Festival First Timer
This year being not only my first CMA Music Festival but also my first time In Nashville, I really didn’t know what to expect. I knew there would be country music stars but was unaware of all the other attractions going on downtown. This festival brings in so many companies with booths and prizes that one day really isn’t enough! There is so much to do from watching the flying dog show to watching street performers like the Naked Cowboy. In addition to the already booming downtown, the festival brings in around 200,000 people to the area over four days! That is amazing.
Most people come to watch performances throughout the day. Stars perform on many stages around downtown, from the Hard Rock to the waterfront to the main stage at LP Field. Entering LP Field for the first night of performances I could not believe the amount of people in the stands and on the field. I had never seen anything like it and was thrilled to be apart of that. Not only were so many people sweating it out in the stands for their beloved performers but they even toughed it out through the rain delay and stayed to watch til 3 in the morning! Now that is real country music dedication!

It's time to thank our farmers and ranchers for all their hard work to feed us.
