Thats a fair assumption....I used to work for a country radio station and it was the most miserable year of my life! However, I will be buying Jimmy's new country album......as long as he promises not to sing about his dog dying!

Maybe you're just listening to the wrong country music.

Try some Robbie Fulks, Marti Brom, Cornell Hurd (imagine if Jerry Jeff led the Texas Playboys), and Kasey Chambers.

[/b]I'm so glad this is happening, esp. for Jimmy.

It's a good thing this "country" singer happened to like Jimmy, it's been a while since:


The Vocal Event is Buffett's second CMA nod. The first was in 1977 when he was nominated for Single of the Year for "Margaritaville."

Buffett has never performed on the CMA Awards.

I can't wait!

KICK OFF "COUNTRY MUSIC'S BIGGEST NIGHT"
ON "THE 37TH ANNUAL CMA AWARDS"



NASHVILLE - It will be 8:00 PM/EST, Wednesday, Nov. 5, when "The 37th Annual CMA Awards" hits the air on the CBS Television Network, but it will be "...Five O'Clock Somewhere" when superstars Alan Jackson and Jimmy Buffett perform their homage to bardom for the first time together on network television to open the CMA Awards live from the Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville, Tenn.

"The song has been a summer phenomenon and we are thrilled to have Alan and Jimmy perform it together to open the CMA Awards," said CMA Executive Director Ed Benson.

"It's Five O'Clock Somewhere" is nominated for Vocal Event of the Year for Jackson and Buffett. The song, which has spent more than seven weeks at the top of the singles charts, propelled Jackson's current project, Greatest Hits Volume 2 And Some Other Stuff, to debut atop both the Billboard Pop and Country Album sales charts with more than 328,000 units sold in its first week -- the highest weekly sales total of any Country album release in 2003.

Jackson, who is the reigning CMA Entertainer and Male Vocalist of the Year, is nominated for three Awards including Entertainer, Male Vocalist and Vocal Event of the Year. The Vocal Event is Buffett's second CMA nod. The first was in 1977 when he was nominated for Single of the Year for "Margaritaville." Buffett has never performed on the CMA Awards.

"The 37th Annual CMA Awards" will be broadcast live on the CBS Television Network Wednesday, Nov. 5 (8:00-11:00 PM/EST). All-time leading CMA Award winner Vince Gill will host the gala event for the 12th consecutive year.
