Nashville Star tonight!!!

Well the fifth season of the country music version of "American Idol" starts tonight at 10pm on the USA cable network.
Blake Shelton and Randy Owen from the Alabama band will join Anatasia Brown as judges. I'm interested to see what Blake is gonna say. He has one of the most wicked senses of humor in the the country world. He and Brad Paisley qualify as the smartest of the smart alecs and I love 'um both because they are just plain funny!!!
Randy Owen will be able to give some great free advice to these 10 aspiring performers. Randy has seen everything you could see over the span of his 30+year career in the biz. I had a chance to spend some time with Randy at the St. Jude Hospital in Memphis, TN several years ago and the man is full of incredible stories about the stuff he's been through in what is arguably the most successful "band" ever in country music. He's a great guy and always willing to give advice and share his insights(which are many)
I think this year's show will have some very good talent. As to why no one besides Buddy Jewell and Miranda Lambert have been able to crack a hit on country radio, I don't know. I've had many people ask but I don't have any easy answer. It's a crazy business but here's hoping someone will shine and have awesome songs and will end up like Carrie Underwood.
Gonna be a fun time!!
