Enda en Country Music award har gått av stabelen. Country Music sjangeren er sannsynligvis den musikkgrenen som har flest prisutdelinger og shows enn noen annen sjanger.
Denne gang var det altså CMT Music Awards. I det over to og en halv time lange showet var det utrolig mange gode (og noen ikke så gode opptrdener).
Høydepunkter:
Zac Brown Band «Free», opptreden til LeAnn Rimes med “Swingin’”, Keith Urban og John Mayer med «Hit The Ground Runnin ‘».
Tanker:
Kid Rock som programleder? Ehh..han var ikke stor, men heller ikke dårlig. Melissa Peterman hadde vært et bedre valg…
Lavmål:
Jeg kan bli «skutt» for å si dette, men Carrie Underwood var dårlig. Utførelsen av låta “Undo It” var elendig…
