Gentlemen, start your <strike>engines</strike> amps! Whoo, with typically breathless speedway speak the Talledega Speedway announces a partnership with <a href="http://www.thisissomewhere.com/2009/01/28/oh-grace-potter-bambalam/">BamaJam</a> to promote the shows in June.

<blockquote>“NASCAR and live music go hand in hand,” said Ronnie Gilley, CEO Ronnie Gilley Entertainment.  “To align the BamaJam Festival with Talladega is a custom-made, yet natural fit.  Both NASCAR and music fans are crazy for live entertainment!”</blockquote>

I've always thought that.
