Direct from a Nashville already traumatized by CMA Music Fest and thousands of Bonnaroo refugees, it’s the 2009 CMT Music Awards! Below, please find the live blog as it happened during the broadcast, complete with technical difficulties, Miller Genuine Draft, and guest appearances from Brad Paisley, Sugarland, the B-52s, Kellie Pickler, and host Bill Engvall. Enjoy!
I thought I was mistaken about the shorts, but guess not…
she is ageless
Hmmm, time to pause the tivo so that I can fast forward through the teeny-bopper country.
Definitely not a huge taylor swift fan! She isn’t good live at all!
Anybody having problems with the broadcast from CMT. I have Comcast and the video and sound are terrible. It makes it not worth watching. Delays in the video etc.
ok, i have to agree that Taylor Swift just cannot sing live. I’m sorry, but one of my serious pet peeves is when musicians can’t really sing. I love Taylor, but learn to sing sweetie. (PS-I’m a little late in commenting on it-a little behind on my tivo)
“Is there any other genre that goes so far out of its way to make the people in the audience feel like family?”
Or goes so far out of its way to make only a certain segment of its potential audience feel like family? Bill O’Reilly? Seriously? Can we be any more obvious with our point of view? And Kid Rock, T-Pain, Taylor Swift? I’m more and more turned off by country music all the time. You guys should start promoting good country music – you know, the stuff not played on the radio…
It’s sickening. Pop is now country and real country is alt country. I’ll take Jamey Johnson any day.
I played country music for years on radio……and this just ain’t country. My nomination is CMT for the most god-awful show I’ve ever tried to watch. What chemicals were they experimenting with when they put this thing together? Although the show is still in progress at this time….I can’t say I’ve seen five minutes that is worth watching. Guys….get real… this is so bad, WWE looks great compared to what you’re airing.
There’s only one legitimate place I’ve found to watch it live, the rest seem like scams.. You can watch it over here though: http://vostuu.com/watch28015.html
They make you do a little survey but after that it’s good to go
who was that walking in with kellie pickler?
OMG please tell her i love her dress!She is so cute!
I totally agree with Alvin. Remember the movie “Pure Country” kinda makes ya think about tonight
I have seen Taylor Swift live..I remember thinking she couldn’t sing live and then I actually saw her and she was absolutely amazing. I don’t understand what it is with her and award shows, but she is a VERY good singer.
This is an AWESOME performance:
