Ever felt the rush of a live concert, the energy of a crowd singing their lungs out, and the thrill of being up close with your favorite country star? Buckle up and get ready to ride shotgun with us for Thursday night at WeFest, headlined by the one and only Morgan Wallen. We're pulling back the curtain and dishing out all the backstage details from the sponsor tailgate, thanks to Leighton Broadcasting and Wild Country 99.
From our pre-show jitters and drinking tips to survive the night, we give you a glimpse into our journey. We also delve into the fascinating world of music industry politics, envisioning a potentially game-changing collaboration between Morgan Wallen and Taylor Swift. And wait till you hear our guest JD Greene's story of meeting Morgan Wallen on a radio tour. Trust us, it's not all glitz and glamour, but confidence sure does help in scoring those VIP passes!
As we journey through the night, we'll also share our insights on the evolving country music landscape. Get ready to debate on the shift from pop-country to traditional styles and the potential drift towards rock-style music. We'll also revisit some unforgettable moments in JD's career, like an early encounter with Eric Church and the electrifying power of Kid Rock at Woodstock 99. As we wrap-up, we shed light on the role of social media in an artist's success, the fleeting nature of relevance, and the high-stakes game required to become a country music star. So, plug in those headphones and enjoy the ride, because we've got drinks to pour, stories to tell, and a great time ahead. Cheers!
