I just want to say that this game has kept me watching the show this season! Thanks so much, puttergirl, for organizing it. I've seen your polls in other threads, but this is the first time I"ve participated. Kady--good luck!

I didn't play the game, but I watched the show and I really wanted Jason to win but seeing Erika Jo's daddy cry made it ok that she won! I will duck as I say this now though - it seems part of what Tamika was saying about trying to make it in the business for a few years makes you hungrier and the younger ones need to experience that to understand how amazing this opportunity is, that's why I would have preferred to see Jason win - for Erika is just seemed she was excited but it didn't mean the world to her - it seemed more of an act where Jason could barely keep from crying he wanted it so bad.

Oh, don't duck. I'm there with you. Erica Jo has a great voice and stage presence - there's no denying that. And yes, seeing her dad cry was the most touching moment. I'm sure she is happy and appreciates the opportunity. But like you, I think Jason would have realized the full impact of winning. He wanted it so badly. I'm sure something is going to happen for him, though.

I'm sure Jason will have a career to look forward to. Nashville Star 2's runner up, George Canyon, has done very well here in Canada.

Isn't Buddy Jewell last years winner? I see his new album just came out and he's always on the country stations

Nope Supergranny but I can see how you would think so as we hear about Buddy from time to time, at least..he is actually the winner from the year before (ie Nashville 1, this is nashville 3). I think the winner's name was Brad Cotter or something like that. I know George Canyon came in second and I hear about him from time to time (in fairness because he is Canadian and so am I) but never anything about Brad???

Jan, I did that just for you!! Crapola, this is the worst I've ever done. But I decided to go against what every one else thought so that maybe I would have a chance. You know the old sink or swim idea. LOL

George Canyon update. I saw him at our local fair this weekend and it was great fun. He is such a nice man and is quite funny. He talked about Nashville Star and how it was his wife that made him audition. What a nice looking dude......that's for sure. He played for 1 1/2 hours and then apparently signed autographs for 2 hours. He played a new song called Happy Man (I think)but I cannot remember when he said it would be out. This week he is taping a Christmas special to air on CMT. We managed to get right up front. My kinda concert....outside, lounging on a blanket, listening to good tunes. I did take pictures but do not have a digital camera. When I get them developed I will check them out. If they are worth scanning I will post some.

George Canyon wins big at Canadian Country Music Awards Last Updated Tue, 13 Sep 2005 14:39:12 EDT CBC Arts George Canyon stole the show at the Canadian Country Music Awards Monday night in Calgary. The Nova Scotia-born singer won four major awards, including top male artist and the fans' choice as top entertainer. "You have to excuse me - I have something in my eye," Canyon said as he wiped away tears when accepting the award before the crowd of 7,000. The 34-year-old native of New Glasgow, N.S., also won best single and songwriter for My Name, co-written with Cape Breton's Gordie Sampson. "It was like I was watching someone else's life unfold," Canyon said backstage. "But I think I'll continue to take it all in." CBC

Season 4 starts on March 14 on USA and Wynonna Judd and Cowboy Troy are the hosts. They have some funny commercials with Wynonna and Troy on USA now and it looks like they will have great cohost chemistry and a lot of humor.

Someone found an article in the Nashville Scene. The article is not on-line, so I will direct you to a place where you can read the whole article that they tyed in. link It is rather sad in comparingthe success of the Nashville Star winners to the AI winners. Here are a few quotes. In country music, sales—and success—are driven primarily by radio, more so than in any other genre. For that reason, there tends to be a protocol in Nashville, a “right way” for artists to work the system. After being scouted and signed by a label, new artists embark on lengthy and exhausting radio tours, where they meet programmers face to face, and tell their stories, vying for airtime. Nashville Star winners do a much abbreviated version of that song-and-dance, which may not endear them to folks at radio. But radio isn’t the only place in the country music industry where support for Nashville Star is waning. Besides dropping both Jewell and Cotter, Sony BMG also decided not to partner with the show after the second season. Universal South quickly signed on for season three, but elected not to continue after releasing Erika Jo’s album. The RCA Label Group will be the home for the winner of Nashville Star’s fourth season. It’s hardly a vote of confidence in the show’s star-making potential that record labels consider it such a hot potato. For a study in contrasts, look at Miranda Lambert. At 21, she came in third place on Nashville Star’s first season and walked away with a deal with Sony. Unlike the winners, who are pressured to rush out albums while their win is still in recent memory, Lambert was afforded the luxury of spending two years crafting her debut, Kerosene. She co-wrote 11 of 12 tracks, including several with fellow contestant Travis Howard. The result was arguably the best country album of 2005, a sophisticated, ambitious piece of country-rock that made its debut at No. 1 on the country charts and has been certified gold. Lambert is proof that winning Nashville Star is in some ways a catch-22.
