Happy Memorial Day
As I reflect on today I think back to some of my most cherished memories of performing for our troops. It was one of the most humbling and memorable experiences of my life. My band did several tours pre and post 9/11 and I'll never forget it. Here's to our troops! Thank you for your service and sacrifice!
Here's a picture of me performing at the first "Super Supper" for the allied troops after 9/11 at Kandahar Air Force Base.

Merrell Crawfish Boil to take place at LP Field this weekend
CLICK HERE FOR TICKETS!
Merrell Crawfish Boil to take place at LP Field this weekend
311, Offspring, Boys Like Girls, Gavin Rossdale,
Soulja Boy, Flyleaf among top acts
NASHVILLE, TN - The 3rd Annual Merrell Crawfish Boil will take place on the grounds of LP Field Friday and Saturday, May 15-16. The event has been moved from its original planned site in Riverfront Park due to high water levels at the park.
Event organizers said the new site will provide great site lines and visibility for performances and ample parking. The festival entrance will be located at Parking Lot R on the southwest side of the stadium where the pedestrian bridge enters LP Field from downtown. Lawn chairs will be allowed for comfortable viewing from the new site.
"While we regret that circumstances have forced us to move the festival at this late date, we are excited about the new location and believe it will provide for a great festival experience," said Darin Lashinsky of Outback Concerts, which co-produces the festival with Blue Deuce Entertainment and Red Mountain Entertainment.
Gary Weinberger with Red Mountain Entertainment added: "We are grateful for the cooperation of Steve Underwood and Don MacLachlan with LP Field as well as Marilyn Edwards with the Mayor's office who were instrumental in making this transition possible."
The Merrell Crawfish Boil drew more than 17,000 attendees in 2008, and organizers expect another great crowd this year with acts including 311, The Offspring, Boys Like Girls, Flyleaf, Soulja Boy, Gavin Rossdale, Candlebox, Hoobastank and Saving Abel.
In addition to the music, more than 12,000 pounds of hot, spicy boiled crawfish straight from Louisiana will be served over the course of the weekend. Other food vendors will be on site as well, and there will be plenty of activities for families including the Merrell Recess Area featuring old-school games like four square, jump rope and corn hole toss.
Advance general admission tickets are only $29.50 per day and $49.50 for a weekend pass. Advance VIP tickets, which include free crawfish, private restrooms and beverage stations, are $75 per day or $140 for a weekend pass. General admission day passes are $30 at the door.
Tickets can be purchased at www.Ticketmaster.com, at all Ticketmaster locations, by calling (800) 745-3000 or at The Merrell Store at Green Hills.

New Trek Kicks Ass
I'm an old school Star Trek fan from way back. I'm not afraid or ashamed to say that I am a fanboy of all the shows. I've seen them all and even met some of the original bad asses like George Takei (Sulu) and James Doohan(Scotty). I just saw the new movie in IMAX and was blown away. The story and visual effects are on point and I left the theatre wanting more. I think you will too. Check it out while you can in IMAX.
BTW - The preview for Transformers and Harry Potter in IMAX were also very b.a.

Auto-tune the news!
This vocal effect is one of the most obnoxious and over-used gimmicks used in pop/rock recordings to date. Here's a look at how somebody put this tired effect to good use.
