Digitally Delightful: November 2011

I thought it would be fun to give all my bloggy friends a behind the scenes look at the CMA's! This is my third year getting the all access look at country music's biggest week.

So here's a quick run down and some photos of the week!!

Sunday-Tuesday
Artists come to the Hilton for radio interviews. Each artist has an entourage - usually a publicist/record rep/family member or manager that tags along. They also have a handler that moves them quickly around the room. The bigger the artist the less time you have to talk. Usually you have about 5 minutes with each artist to interview, take pictures, get autographs and also liners (ex: Hi this is Darius Rucker and you're listening to 98.1 The Bull).

Here are some of my favorite pictures from the radio interviews.

The row of interviews!

After long days of radio interviews there is always something fun going on around town. But getting up at 3 or 4 in the morning can make going out on the town hard. We did manage to make out one night to the Hard Rock for Jason Aldean and Thompson Square and then headed down to The Stage to see a great performance from Ronnie Dunn.
