That was one of the biggest jokes ever played on country fans. Most of the singers completely sucked and the judges they had weren't much better. The show started off bad on USA and just got worse as the few years went on then totally jumped the shark upon moving to NBC. The only singer I can think that remotely got anything out of this show is Miranda Lambert and she didn't win. The same can be said for most of these flash in the pan reality show winners. I wish the entire music industry would stop looking to game shows for talent and go back to looking for the acts that continue to build a fan base while playing live..being able to do so with NO technical "Help".

I'm told that six top shelf lead guitar players in nashville have turned down the big and rich tour for this summer (and everyone of them likes Big Kenny)...hmmmmm....word on the street is John Rich is actually having to pay Big Kenny (in addition to their 50/50 split) so he will put up with him. That pretty much says it all right there. Glory2001,

John Rich decided everybody was right and now you are blaming him. He did not say Nashville Star did not make good singers, just that NBC made the show bad, which I agree with. If you could possibly get past your John Rich hater hobby, you might realize he was named songwriter of the year for THREE years running. He is outspoken and people do not like that, but I would rather hear an honest opinion than a bunch of yes people.

I don't know who it'll be, but Johnson would make sense. Actually, according to the CMT blog, it’s Jamey Johnson who’ll be at the Strait concert.
