Hey there,
It has been an interesting week. Got some HORRIBLE news over the weekend. It’s really sad. A guy I’ve known for years, went to school with him and when I lived in San Diego he was stationed out there so we’d watch Bama games ever so often. He went off the radar a while back so I just figured we lost touch. Turns out he was sentenced to 40 years in prison for raping two underage girls. How horrible is that! I guess you really never know about someone. I had no idea he was capable of that. I’m still in shock about it. Feel so bad for people involved.
Onto some other things. Had an afternoon date Sunday and we saw Moneyball. It was really good! Think any business can apply the lesson in that movie about changing and growing with the times or you get left behind. We went to Drakes, one of my favorite places (great bloody marys) My date pointed out that I fidget constantly. She said I’m always shifting, leaning up, leaning back, popping knuckles, etc. Never really noticed I guess, although I’ve had other folks say stuff about it but I never paid attention to it. Could have been the two Red Bulls I had. LOL. Do you fidget a lot? Pop Your knuckles? I can’t be the only one that is always moving around.
Had a cook out for the Bama/Florida Game and we had “Gator” meat. It was my first time trying it. It taste like rubber chicken to me. Have you ever tried gator meat? What did you think? Thank goodness Alabama won. It’s been a good year so far.
We have been teasing some big announcements. The press release for one of the announcements was approved yesterday, so it should be any time now and the other HUGE announcement should be next week!
Talk to you soon.

I’m doing something this weekend I haven’t done in over 20 years: Seeing people with whom I went to high school!
My 25th reunion is here & I’ve decided to take the trip back to Hokes Bluff, Alabama to take part. They’ve had one or two
other reunions but we lived in California & I really wasn’t up for a 2,500 mile trip for a reunion. But now, at 43 years old & feeling
a little nostalgic, plus living much closer, I figure it’s time. Like anyone, I’m curious about my former classmates. Who will have changed the most? Who got heavy? Who got skinny? Who got bald? We were a small class so it won’t be any major throwdown, but
it should be fun to see adults who, the last time I saw them in person, were teens without a clue.
Have you done the 20+ year reunion? What were the biggest surprises? Any fights? Any hook-ups? I feel compelled to cause something to happen that will be remembered. I’ll keep you posted on what I decide & try to get pictures or video if the police are involved!

Hi,
Hope everyone’s life is great. Lot to catch you up on. Tony and I (and some friends) went to New York last weekend for the CMT Tour. Lee Brice, Josh Thompson, and Luke Bryan played a show and we got to party with them a bit. Luke’s mom was there and she listens to us down in Albany on K-Country. She’s too funny. Josh Thompson went out and hit the town with us. You should buy some of his stuff on iTunes. Won’t Be Lonely Long is my favorite song by him. Took a jog through Central Park, and got to hang most of the day at ground zero. Amazing stories down there. See photos from the New York Trip HERE

Last night may have been one of the coolest things I’ve done in the 20 years of radio I’ve worked. Under the arena here is a rehearsal area for artist to get ready for their tours. Miranda invited about 20 of us to come see her last night of rehearsal. She had couches set up in front of the stage. Tony and I had a few drinks made for us and basically got our own FULL Miranda Concert. Loved the fact she’s got “strings” in the show this year. One of my favorites from her. The show is going to be great so get your tickets when it comes to your town. A lot of pics are posted. HERE!
Hope you catch some football this weekend and that your team does well. We are getting closer to our 2 big announcements. This coming week or so we should be able to let you in on at least one of them.

I hope you all had a great weekend. Relaxing around here. Although at one point on Saturday we did have 10 teenagers in our house. Yikes.

Watched a 9/11 special last night about the “Heroes Of The 88th Floor.” Basically how two regular guys who worked on that floor of the North Tower
of the World Trade Center helped save 77 people and inspired others to do the same. While we all thank fire, police, emt, military, etc., don’t forget
to thank the families of normal folks like you & me who did extraordinary things that day. How many of us would have stayed behind rather than go
down those stairs with our wives (which is what one of them did)? How many would fight to go up the stairs rather than down? How many would
sacrifice our lives to ensure that a few other people made it down? It was a remarkable, selfless act & the special was quite moving.
Kris & I saw it happen live. We followed the news & stayed on the air from 5:30 a.m. Pacific until well into the afternoon. We shared information &
encouragement, talking with listeners and letting them vent, cry & share. It was a day we’ll never forget & one of the rare opportunities two radio goofs
have the opportunity to do something that really matters: Help bring people together so healing may begin.

Hi there! Just a quick pop-in as I’m about to head out the door to pick up Lexi at the airport as she arrives from San Diego for a late-summer visit before she starts her *GULP* Junior year at University of San Diego!
Can’t believe how the years have flown. She’ll be 20 in December, Geoffrey just turned 17 & is a Senior in high school & Meredith recently turned 15 & is a Sophomore. Seems like yesterday we were all going
school shopping together & they were all so excited to start the new year. Now (with the younger two at least) we have to drag them out of bed each day to get there, though Meredith still likes the shopping part.

On an unrelated note, I saw a story online a couple days ago about weird sandwich combinations people eat & the headline brought happy memories of my dad rushing back. The author was talking about how she’s made fun of for eating
peanut butter & onion sandwiches. Those were my pop’s favorites! He would eat them 2 or 3 times a week & every time, mom & I would cringe. The weirdest I ever got was as a kid, I would make a bologna, mustard & potato chip sandwich.
Delicious & crunchy! Do you have any weird sandwich combos that make people look at you like you’re nuts?

That’s it for now. Looking forward to a fun, but too short visit with Lexi & having all my kids under one roof for a while. Talk to you soon!

Hey,
I’m stalking a country star! I don’t mean to be, but I feel I am. It’s not who you would think that I would stalk either. Now Tony and I are always honest with you about who we are friends with, or artist that we know but are not really pals with. Charles Kelley of Lady A has to think I’m stalking him. In Nashville, I’ve run into him at Target a few times, Heading up to play golf one day, he was coming out, went to a party at Martina McBride’s house and we ran into each other there. It all started when Tony and I went to the Bruce Springsteen show with a mutual friend who took Charles and his wife also. Anyway, I went to lunch the other day and all of Lady A walk in and sit at the table next to me. Long story short. I’m NOT stalking Charles. He’s got to be thinking, I see this guy everywhere. I’m going out of my way to not see him now just so he does not think I’m stalking him. LOL.
Hate what happened in Indy. That was just so sad to see the video. I hope that venues take some sort of safety measures after seeing that. It’s up to 5 people now that have died.
Tony and I are tossing around the idea of a “Second Hand Heart” party in a few places around the country. If you have not heard Danny Gokey’s new song it is great and the lyrics are amazing. It’s about two people that have been through a bad relationship and have found each other. We think anyone that has been through a divorce or break up will love it.
My songwriting hobby is really fun. It’s amazing that songs ever get on the radio but two that I’ve been a part of seem to be getting traction and who knows. In a year or so you may hear them on the radio. I’ll keep you posted.
That’s it for now. Hope you have a great day!

3 Quick Questions
1. What was the last movie you saw? Rise of The Planet of The Apes- I liked it
2. What song describes your last week? Workin’ For A Livin’- Huey Lewis and the News
3. What was your last meal? Fruit smoothy for breakfast this morning.

Hey,
Hope you are well. Had a very busy weekend here in Nashville. Had a nice Friday night with friends at a place called the Wine Loft and Sambuca. I tried to grab some videos from the bands that night. There are always bands in every place playing and most of the time they are pretty good.
Saturday night was Jake Owen/Keith Urban. You know I like motivational quotes and stuff like that. Keith sent me an email and I loved the quote he has at the bottom of his emails and thought I’d share it with you.
“Competition attempts to be LIKE.
Creativity attempts to be UNLIKE.
Competition casts all humanity into the same mold. Creativeness makes each of us a counterpart of God.”
-US Andersen.
Do you have any quotes you really like?
Keith was great as always and his after party and after-after party were something else.
The show was amazing. Both are such great entertainers. I gotta say that Jake’s new cd is unreal and I keep comparing it to what Bryan Adams “Reckless”. You know just one of those cds that everysong is great. What are the cds you have that you think EVERY song is good?

(See the Trailer for Dark Knight Rises HERE) (more…)

What a CRAZY week in Nashville! It’s CMA Music Festival & all the die hard country fans have swooped in for a dream weekend.
We don’t usually wade too deep into the huge crowds, especially in this heat, but we do take part in some cool stuff. Yesterday,
Candy & I went to a private Keith Urban event. He opened up a rehearsal for industry, media & fan club-types to check out what he has in store for his upcoming tour. It was fantastic! There were around 400 people in the auditorium so it was really intimate. Keith came out &
talked about being nervous & asked that we all try to act like a “real” audience, then launched into Put You In A Song. He stopped & chatted between songs & explained some of what was going to happen. It was really fun. I snapped some pictures & took a little video. Hope you enjoy them.



Other than that, it looks like we’re hosting Chris Young’s fan club party this weekend & heading to Birmingham next week to take part in Bama Rising. Both HUGE honors. We’ll post pictures of both next week.
Have a great weekend!

Man, it’s been a crazy few weeks! Between Lexi & her boyfriend’s visit, Memorial Day & our moving into a new house, I’m pooped!

Moving is always such a pain but it’s always so nice when it’s over & you’re settled. We did our move mostly ourselves over the Memorial Day weekend & a few days after. I’m no fan of manual labor so I paid a few of Geoffrey’s buddies to help & that was a smart move. It does my heart good to see teenagers doing manual labor. I don’t see it enough! Now the unpacking & searching for stuff we lost in the move begins.

Lexi’s boyfriend has returned to San Diego. He got the stamp of approval from the family. Nice, funny kid. Of course, all I want to see is my daughter happy & she is, so I’m cool. Speaking of Lexi she’s smoking through college. She’s technically going to be a Junior next semester but she’s had to slow down her course load to avoid an early graduation. On the one hand, that’s great because she’s not even 20 yet. On the other, it just means more money. I’m somewhat torn, but as always, proud of her & her commitment to education.

It’s CMA Music Festival week here in Nashville so it promises to be fun & super busy. Look for pictures & videos here on TonyandKris.com soon!

What a Memorial Day Weekend! Think I ate enough burgers, steaks, and hot dogs to feed a country. Saw Hangover 2 with a group of around 15 or so and Jake Owen joined us. If you have not heard his new one it’s called Barefoot Bluejean Night! It’s his biggest seller he’s had.
The movie was hysterical and my favorite line is “the monkey gets it”.
Saturday night there was a festival downtown with some great stages going and a group of us went. We ended up at Jimmy Buffett and he puts on a great show. Chris Young joined us and we all pretty much stayed out of trouble.

MORE VIDEOS FROM THAT NIGHT HERE
Chesney jumped up and sang a couple of songs too!

Played golf over the weekend and shot the best I have EVER shot. Played with a very cool songwriter named Anthony Smith. Great guy. Trying to get the final touches on everything for us to start on air in California in the Morongo Valley. Looking forward to being on out there in a few places before end of summer. Got to run right now will check in later in the week with a better blog. Have a good one

OH yeah, this is downtown on a typical SaturDAY in Nashville!
