New Holland has a booth in the Chevrolet Sports Zone area here at the CMA Music Festival.
Cattleman And Country Star
Meet Todd Fritsch. I sat down and interviewed him this morning and I’m glad I did.
Getting Ready For The First Big Concert
This is a big empty stadium today but it will be filled tonight and I’ll be there for the opening night concert featuring Hank Williams Jr, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Brooks & Dunn.
CMA Block Party
After today’s parade event the crowd hung around for a mid afternoon outdoor street concert. This stage is set up right outside the Gaylord Entertainment Center right off Broadway street.
Watching The Parade
The parade got underway and the New Holland/FFA/Michael Peterson/Chevy float was one of the main attractions.
Other Parade Participants
Tractors weren’t the only vehicles in today’s parade.
Posing On The Tractor
Just prior to the start of today’s parade Michael Peterson posed for a number of pictures. I’ve got them all and will make them part of my end of the event photo album.
New Holland And CMA
Here you can see that New Holland and the Country Music Association are tied together. This tractor will be signed by the participants in Sunday’s Michael Peterson Celebrity Boomer Tractor Race.
First Interview With Michael
Before things kicked off today Michael Peterson checked out the tractors. Here he’s looking over the New Holland TZ22D which will be part of Sunday’s big race. I’ll have more on this later.
FFA Parades With Michael
Michael Peterson posed with the FFA members who took part in today’s parade.
