CMA FEST 2009 - Night One LP FIELD - FAIL - Nashville, TN

[therichone11]

You should have stayed! We sat in the concourse by a concession stand till they let us back in at like 1:30ish. The shows afterwards were all amazing. Darius Rucker went into the crowd. Brad and Dierks sang together. Fans were allowed to all move down to the floor. It was soo fun! We became like best friends with the people that sat next to us in the concourse lol cuz there was nothing to do but wait. And then the next day everyone on the Opryland bus was like WHAT they started again!?!?!?!

Reba was SO good and it stinks that we only got to hear 3 songs of hers. It really stinks also that people had to wait so long for the show to continue, even Reba left herself. We ended up going home and missing the rest of the artists. But other than that, it was all loads of fun. Reba, The Judds, Martina, Taylor, Trace, and Miranda, were really good!

I was there too!!!! We left cuz I was parked in a garage that closed at 12!! So the rest of the week I parked at the LP field. I had a blast!!!! But it sucked that I didn't get to see Darius, Brad and Julianne. I really wanted to see Rascal Flatts too but they left too so at least I wasnt the only one =)

I was just way happy Reba even got to come out. That made my day. The waiting sucked, but it was worth it. Great week, despite this. :)

i went to cma fest for all 4 days!!! it started raining so the host guy told all of us to get under the roof or whatever and we left because we didn't think they would go back on and then we found out they did i was dissappointed we missed rascal flatts but the other 3 days were awesome. Martina mcbride and kenny chesney closed out saturday and sundays it was alot of fun even tho i was in section 331 ALL THE WAY AT THE TOP SCARY!!!!1

wwrd30- I was one of the people who only went to see Reba! I was really hoping she would continue singing after the storm but she didn't, I still had a ton of fun and the storm only added to the excitement

[angelmomkz2]

The last comment was actually from me, I hadnt realized that a friend of mine had left her name signed in!

After we were told to clear the stadium, a lot of us waited 2 hours for the storm to clear and the concert was back on. Those who had seats in the higher sections were told to come down to the floor to fill in seats then Darius Rucker, Dierks Bentley, and Brad Paisley finish the concert out. Reba had went home, Rascal Flatts had to leave bc they had a show in Tulsa tonight (6/12/09), and IDK about everyone else! Brad and DB wrapped up the show with the song Alcohol at 2am.

i went to the CMAfest in 2007 the first time Reba had performed there in 11yrs (it was called fanfair last time she sang there)..... i would rather listen to 3 live songs from her or sit in the storm as they are sang instead of doing anything else i mean i saw her 14times in concert already but that still isnt enough for me lol.....

[wwrd30]

Does anyone know why CMT or GAC does not have live prime time coverage each night since most fans are unable to attend this event? Wouldn't it be great?!

I would rather see the performances now instead of in a 2 hour ABC special in August.

[wwrd30]

Could you imagine being those people who only went for Reba and only got to see her perform 3 songs.  How disappointing for them!! Also I didn't realize that to be guaranteed an autograph from Reba you had to have a wristband. Only 200 were given out. Why is a big deal made of "meet and greet" when it isn't a guarantee?! Is this truly having the fans' interests at heart?

[dugite100]

Oh well 3 songs from Reba is worth an entire concert from anyone else, yeah I said it and I meant it. Bummer for the folks who paid for an entire night of entertainment, at least Brooks and Dunn finished their set..
