Thanks, Fans, for Visiting Nashville and the CMA Music Festival[Jun. 22, 2009] Did anybody in Nashville remember to thank the 56,000 guests who came from across the U.S. and around the world to attend the recent CMA Music Festival? Were there large white banners with red lettering that welcomed country music fans to our city? And were there goodbye banners thanking them for coming with the message, "Hope to see you next year"? If not, there should have been.
Even with the sudden storms, fans were royally entertained while sometimes being soaked to the skin. Let me humbly thank each one who came to the festival. I hope you enjoyed our town. And I hope you made it home safe and are already making plans to return in 2010 to see the biggest and best array of talent ever assembled. By Hazel Smith
