I'm a Nashville Star fan, for sure!! Buddy Jewel won the first season, and what a great songwriter he is. If you don't know that already check out the song he wrote, inspired by a conversation between him and his daughter......"Help Pour Out the Rain (Lacey's Song)" it's awesome. oh, and the song "Sweet Southern Comfort" was written by a graduate for my old school---the University of North Alabama!
The cool thing about Nashville Star is that the contestants must play their own music, write songs, as well as covers......and these people have been in the trenches for a long time, most of them trying to make it singing in bars and whatnot......
Much more talent than you would see on American Idol, IMO.
