Yes there is some mighty strong competitors here, hard to imagine just how dadgum popular Taylor Swift is. That being said Jason Aldean is hot hot hot right now. He is a local middle Georgia boy and I enjoy seeing his success (two of his biggest hits were actually written by anothe Ga. boy Brantley Gilbert who is really good live). 
I have the DVR set to record (I'll be at the Warren Haynes show tomorrow night) and I can't wait to see how Nashville and the huge televison audience responds to Grace's CMA appearance.
