It sucks that Gary is NOT on the show or nominated but I have to admit that watching Brad Paisley & Keith Urban perform together was awesome!!

Carrie Underwood looks pretty in that blue strapless dress.

Brad is HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GEORGE GOT SINGLE OF THE YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


KELLIE PICKLER - WOW!! Quite a change from what she wore last year. I like the song.

ALAN JACKSON - He just gets better looking as he gets older. Just like George. If I was in the audience I could have done w/out the line dancers in my face.

SONG OF THE YEAR: STAY! Pretty song. I was hoping George would win tho.

MIRANDA - Beautiful performance.

LADY A - WOW!! That lead singer guy is hot. I want to see these guys in concert now. Man, if they were on tour with Gary... talk about OOOOO!! He reminds me of Josh Turner... the guy w/the really deep voice who sings "Firecracker". I kept rewinding the show to watch them!! LOLOL!!

MARTINA - Love her.

RODNEY ATKINS - OK Lissa, Alicia, & Jo. I get it now. When is his next concert?!

JOHN RICH - I'm sorry but I just love him. He's one of the few ppl I want to meet!!

GROUP OF THE YEAR: Whatver. Emerson Drive soooooooo deserved that award.

Why am I watching this stupid show!? OH Yeah. My sister is making me!! LOLOL!!

TAYLOR SWIFT: My sister & I both thought she sounded a lil flat. 'Bout time she had some new music. We didn't like this song. Was it just me or did Prince Charming look like he didn't really want to be there? LOL.

KID ROCK: K. My sister is dancing!! I do like this song. Altho I NEVER thought I would see Kid Rock on the CMA's!! My sister & I wanna know what George Strait was thinking when he had to sit through this performance!! A STANDING OVATION?!?!?!!!! HUH???

GEORGE STRAIT: He doesn't even need to open his mouth. Just stand there. Kind of like Gary. Why haven't these two ever toured together?! OMG!!!!!! THEY GAVE KID ROCK A STANDING O BUT THEY DON'T GIVE GEORGE ONE?! WTH!!!!!

JASON ALDEAN: I like him. He's just so darn cute. Seriously, tho, who dresses these guys? Couldn't they at least wear new jeans w/out holes in them?

BEST NEW ARTIST: Lady A. WOW!! I didn't think they would win.

BROOKS & DUNN and REBA: I like B & D even tho it seems like they've won the Best Duo award for the last 500 yrs. They always consistently write good music. I miss Reba. I really loved her Duets cd except for the song she did with Kelly Clarkson. I like the original version of that song better.

VOCAL DUO: Sugarland!! YAY!!!! I like the hat he was wearing.

DARIUS RUCKER: OK. I need to get his cd.

BRAD PAISLEY: I like it when he does songs like this instead of his joke songs like "Alcohol", "Online," "Ticks", etc.

STUPID DVR!!!!!!! I missed Keith Urban!! The one performance that would have made this show worthwhile for me & I miss it!!! ARGH!!! I had to stop two recordings & it switched me from Brad Paisley to the end of Keith's performance!!

CARRIE UNDERWOOD: Pretty song. I like when she just sings normal instead of when she's like "screaming" & stuff. That made me cry having the military widow introduce her.

FEMALE VOCALIST: Carrie. At least it wasn't Taylor. I would have had to boycott country music if she had won.

SUGARLAND: Pretty song. WHAT is she wearing!? I really like them in moderation though. Like once a week on my iPod. I like that he's getting to sing & not just on background.

JAMES OTTO: YES! YES! OMG! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG!! That deep voice!!

KENNY CHESNEY: My sister is in heaven. I like him but he needs to write something other than a "beach/island" song. I really really like his older stuff. His guitar looks like it's bigger than him! WHOA!! Really likin' the keyboard player!!

TRACE ADKINS: He's so cool. Standing O! Right on!!

I just love Reese Witherspoon!! She seems like she would be cool to hang out with & have a couple of margaritas with. LOL.

MALE VOCALIST: BOO!!!!!!!!!!!! GARY ALLAN SHOULD HAVE WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm glad Brad got it. That's cool. Too funny!! He hugs Keith instead of his wife. OMG!!! He's kissing his baby!!! AAWW!! K. I'm a fan for life now!!!

THE EAGLES: I grew up on these guys so I'm kind of partial here. All of my older sisters loved these guys. I really like their new cd. Although, they're lookin' kind of old. LOLOL! My daughter said, "Those guys look old." ROFLMAO!!

SHANIA TWAIN!!! OMG!! SHE LOOKS HOT!!!!!!! OMG! I would soooooooo do her!! What the f was wrong with her husband? He must be blind & stupid. When is she gonna release a new cd!?

ENTERTAINER OF THE YEAR: KENNY!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!! He so deserves it. That's cool. OMG! He's cryin'!! OMG! I'm gonna cry!! How do you get to be an assistant? That's the crap I do. I need a job!!!

Ok. Carrie looked good in all of her dresses except for that last weird weird gold looking thing.

WOW! I missed CSI:NY & Friday Night Lights for this. My sister sooooo owes me!! Time to go get my "Sons Of Anarchy" fix.

so cool that George won for album of the year as well...go King George!!!
I was bummed that Rodney didn't win for new artist.
I just haven't gotten into most of the newer artists i guess.
yep Shelby Rodney is awesome.. too bad he doesn't come to Tx much.
on a side note... always really impressed by Jason Aldean as well...
I sure need to see him live...and get more of his music. go Jason!

oh..more side notes.. you missed Friday night lights for CMA's..what were you thinking??? Shania ::: gorgeous as always!! wow you go Shania!!

I only caught the last hour. Wish I'd gotten to see Keith/Brad do their thing. I love Brad Paisley! While KC works hard to give you a good live show, I'd rather have seen Keith or Brad get Entertainer of the Year. Break it up a little. Glad Brad got Male Vocalist of the Year.

Where was Toby Keith and Gary Allan????

just another year of the same ole SH*T!! why i never even turned it on!! but i wish i had seen george!!

"I'd rather have seen Keith or Brad get Entertainer of the Year."
AMEN!!!!!

Looooooved Jason A and the boys on the new song!! ....."Party all-nighter from South Carollina"!!

Keith with Brad Start a Band & Sweet Thing too!

Darius - Get that cd girl - it is good! We went to see them all the time in Myrtle Beach in the 90's - so much fun!

Kind of thought Kenny was gonna ask Shania out right there on stage

EOTY

I was was NOT expecting Lady A to win. I was totally shocked on that one. I really was hoping Rodney would win.

I have both of Jason's cd's & LOVE THEM. I didn't like him when he first came out. It took me about 4 or 5 songs to get into him. I told my ex that I thought he was going to be the next Tim McGraw & he agreed with me.

Which speaking of.........

I thought it was interesting that Toby (altho he hasn't been getting much Nashville love since starting his own label), Tim, Faith... none of them were nominated. I thought it quite interesting that Martina was nominated for Female vocalist with all the "younger" artists.

I think the newer/younger artists are starting to take over. Blech!

At least I don't remember them being nominated.

OMG!! Was that not the funniest?! It was kind of cool to see him acting that way. LOLOL! I have to admit she looked HOT. I was glad to see her get the standing o. That was cool. Say what you will about her music but she set a ton of records & I think just really blew it wide open for female artists. I like her music myself.

DUDE! OMG! Tell me about it. Thank God they repeat the show like 5 times. LOLOL!! This is what happens when your living in someone else's house. I need a job!!!

I watched it last night but fell asleep. I am kind of glad too cause it is pretty much the same ole stuff each and every year. My thought on the whole thing is that we already know who is going to win each year and the same ole ppl keep getting it. I Love George and so glad that he won......and also Lady A.....and with Martina all i have to say is YOU GO GIRL! She STILL has it and is kicking the crap out of the younger crowd!!!! YEAH

lol Glad to see you have boarded the Rodney train! he did really good last night, I love his new song. His outfit could have been a little better....when are these wives and girlfriends going to learn to speak up when their men are getting dressed to tell them they need to change! lol

I couldnt be more angry that he didnt win New Artist....Lady A is good, but in no way should have won the award. If you look at all the nominees and their credentials on paper...Rodney should have taken that one home hands down!

Yipee for Kenny winning, he deserves to win it until someone can out do him out on the road. I thought at first that he was speechless bc he couldnt stop picturing Shania's cleavage....then I noticed its bc he was choked up.

I only caught the last hour to. So glad George won Album of the year. I was very touched by Kenny and his being so humble after his 4th win in a row. But next time GARY better get nominated for something or I'm gonna boycott! He is was to talented and not given the proper recognition for his awesome talent!!!

Shelby thanks for the commentary...I thought that I set the DVR to record but when I got home from shopping it wasn't recording ....I got to see the last 30 mins....KC's performance was really good and it was nice to see him so humbled by his award...he deserves it...but I was so mad that Rodney didn't win new artist over Lady A....

[font="Arial Narrow"Your Welcome. I normally don't watch the show but my sister does so I had to sit through it. I figured I could at least have fun while doing it.

I'm STILL puzzled over Lady A winning. I don't get it.[/font]

Brad and Keith were excellent and on fire! There is talk of the two of them doing a mini tour, that would be so cool but friggin expensive tickets.

I thought that Jason Aldean should have won the Horizon award.

Sick of Taylor Swift this and Taylor Swift that. She is the new Carrie Underwood overload. Next year it will someone else or maybe the year after.

I understand why Kenny won EOTY and I saw how Kenny was checking out Shania and it cracked me up.

I thought Brad Paisley did a very good job co-hosting.

I just wanted to see GARY! It's just not right!

cmt will be reairing this show late november.. i BELIEVE it's the 29th. CHECK your local listings or cmt for that info. (just in case any of you missed other performances....)

As much as the Flatts are my men and I love and support them, I was truly surprised that they got Vocal Group again.....their competition is getting SUPER tough with Little Big Town and Lady A coming up.

Until LBT and Lady A start headling their own tours and outselling the Flatts in record sells...I dont think Rascal has anything to worry about when it comes to group categories.

I just don't get it.....

In OZ Gary is one of the most played artists on our CMC.... why isn't he being recognised more!!!!
I reckon it's because he does it HIS own way...

and how SPECIAL is that!!

Which makes me think that he is like the Johnny Depp of the Acting world... Johnny has never been awarded an Oscar and let's face it... he is one of the BEST out there!!

AS IS OUR MAN GARY!!!!

Why did I even watch the stupid CMA awards?

My fave parts were seeing Brad and Keith perform together and seeing James Otto perform. That was pretty much it. Although it was funny seeing Kenny's reaction to Shania. PRICELESS!!!!

I think I would die of shock if I saw Gary performing at the CMAs. Seriously...

are the flatts still together? i mean i havent heard their name mentioned in like 4 everrrr!!! lol well with every other word being keith, kenny, carrie, or taylor, there just isnt room for anybody else!!!

Your comments are great.... really enjoyed them... thanks for posting!!

Oh yeah, they're still together and going strong! I love those boys!

Gary doesn't need any of that nonsense. He is who he is. I couldn't ask for anything more!

Kenny was needing the drool bucket - I think he lost his train of thought there for a second or so!! Then he snapped to and was like - oh yeah I better accept this award huh??
