The Georgia Theatre - A Classic City Icon

If you've ever spent any time in Athens Georgia, you've spent lots of time at The Georgia Theatre. I spent most of the nineties in the Georgia Theatre Balcony (I was the guy with the funny hat). Its a right of passage for young Southern singers and bands to headline the Georgia Theatre.

RandomThings I've Seen At The Georgia Theatre:

  • U.G.A. Football - Its like being at the game, but you don't have to hide your beer
  • Kinchafoonie, Josh Joplin, Rollin' In The Hay, Collective Soul, David Allan Coe, Govt Mule, Jump Little Children, Ben Folds Five, the list could go on and on....
  • "Wizard Of Oz set to The Wall , Pink Floyd Lazer Light Show, Dazed And Confused
  • In the 90s they set up a dance club between 2 and 4. No Alcohol, and it turned into a bunch of high-school kids out past curfew...
  • Random fights, break-ups, hook-ups, naked women, naked men (eww!)

CMA Music Fest Review

CMA Music Fest Review

The 2008 CMA Music Fest came to a close on Sunday.   Kellee Gooch from TGJ was there to catch a couple shows and was impressed with the talent presented. From the big names to the new names they pulled off their best performances for the steadfast fans who braved the fierce heat, the rowdy crowds, and the four dollar a gallon gas prices.

Some of our favorites like Zac Brown Band, Luke Bryan, and Sugarland were clearly fan favorites as well! Sugarland found a new way to reach out to fans when they crowd-surfed the LP Field concert inside gigantic beach balls.

Miranda Lambert  announced that her "Crazy Ex-girlfriend" album just went gold and put on a show well worth a diamond status.

Keith Urban made a surprise appearance to wrap up the second night. He promised a "show worth seven bucks a gallon", and he delivered.

Each night after the main show you can bet there was plenty of music still to be heard down Broadway. The lights were bright, the bands were loud, and everyone looking for a good time was out and about. Each year the CMA Music Fest gets bigger and better. TGJ can't wait until next year.

ATL Rising Star Nycole Valentina Rocks MTV

ATL Rising Star Nycole Valentina Rocks MTV

Atlanta Myspace Star and hottie Nycole Valentina rocked the TRL studios in an acoustic performance that's sure to generate buzz for this 19 year old powerhouse from Lawrenceville Georgia.

Nycole has been tearing up myspace  (she had over 52,000 plays  TODAY) and I'm positive this won't be the last we'll hear of this new sensation.

Today is Nycole's Day.  She made the fake-emo competition look silly and represented ATL and Georgia in style!!

The Athens Guitar Trio is becoming known as an emerging force in classical guitar around the world, and its no wonder. The Trio- Dusty Woodruff, Rylan Smith, and Matt Anderson- are now in their fourth year as a band. Each member boasts of extensive classical training, and together they form an ensemble with a forward-reaching mindset, which allows them to play the music in an energetic and engaging fashion.

The Athens Guitar Trio Looking To Push Boundaries

The Athens Guitar Trio is constantly looking to push the boundaries of ensemble classical guitar. The Trio also takes great care in the quality and professionalism in their work. Each member of The Athens Guitar Trio plays a guitar built by Kenny Hill, and they perform with an eleven-string guitar. This addition has extended their range, and delights musicians and non-musicians alike with the unique sound.

The Athens Guitar Trio: Yet Another World Wide Emergence of Athens GA Music

The Athens Guitar Trio has played all over the world, and for several dignitaries, including former President Jimmy Carter (also from Georgia), Pulitzer-Prize winner William Bolcom, and Simone Fontanelli, professor of composition at the Mozarteum in Salzburg Germany. Members of the trio have collectively won three Georgia Music Teachers Association Spring Competitions.

With performances, new fans, and their repertoire always growing, the Athens Guitar Trio will continue to delight and entertain audiences all over Georgia, The United States, and the world. They enjoy sharing a love for music by performing as often as possible.
