On the Road: Glenn heads to Nashville for the CMA’s

UPDATE: Episode is now ON DEMAND

 

Today, Glenn hits the road for the CMAs and will be talking to some of country music’s biggest stars from Nashville! GBTV will bring you a behind-the-scenes tour of the ‘Home of Country Music.’ It’s a live celebration of everything country. Don’t miss tonight’s special broadcast live at 5 pm ET only on GBTV. 

It’s been an early morning for the GBTV crew down in Nashville (this writer’s hometown). The trucks arrived late last night/early this morning in downtown:

The production crews will be working out of the mobile controle room

Eric, VP of TV Operations, was out this morning touring downtown Nashville. Check out some of his pictures

Guitars like this are all over Nashville commemorating different aspects of the town’s culture and heritage. This one celebrates country music and honky-tonk’s:

    Well I took the chance and went downtown forgetting it was also CMA week. I saw the trucks, and the bazillion people and the barricades, and turned around and came home. :( Maybe next time.

    Welcome to our Tennessee Glen and Tashia.  Even though Nashville is the  most liberal part of TN, we still love all it has to offer.  We love you both and are so thrilled to have you with us.

    Susan — could you imagine this happening…

    Obama walks into the place for a BBQ sandwich, and hears a voice going “Mr President, come and join me over here, will you…we can chat about so many things…” The person inviting him over is none other than Glenn…

    And behind Obama comes Soros saying to him (in a Godfather type of voice) “Obama, what have I told you so many times about these meeting sights….dear, dear Obama, I treated you so well…I wonder how Biden might like the White House…so long as he does not paint it red with yellow ducks on the walls…”

    I hate country music. Southern folk are o.k., but I despise poppy music.

Why is there such a media bias for woman, conservative women! God Will Bless America when America Blesses God..

    I am not a racist, but the white girls have been going after black athletes on college campuses since the 80′s. I worked around all the athletes, and saw the “new” social thing going on with my own eyes.

    How long are you staying?  I will arrive in Nashville on Nov. 11 thru 14 for my grand daughters Baptism.  If I ever ran into you on the street, I think that I would faint!   I truly miss you on TV. Priscilla Burden, Sarasota, Florida.

    I. think gingrich will win the debate w/ BHO,even if he’s given a telepromter…smiles. Would love Gingrich/cain team!
    Santorum…has always been consistant conservative/Christian. But I don’t think he’ll get nomination-place him somewhere. Or Gingrich/Santorum.
