CMA Award Nominations 2024

Written by   on   in ,  

TL;DR Morgan Wallen got the most noms (7) including Entertainer of the Year... Carrie Underwood and Miranda Lambert were surprisingly not nominated this year... The article from Taste of Country says Post Malone was snubbed because he only got 4 noms... it also says Nate Smith's "World on Fire" not being nominated was a definite snub. Read the whole snubbin' thing at https://tasteofcountry.com/2024-cma-awards-nominations-biggest-snubs-surprises/  ...

TL;DR
• Post Malone and Morgan Wallen's "I Had Some Help" is Billboard's Song of the Summer for 2024
• that makes it 2 years-in-a-row for Morgan Wallen (last Summer it was Wallen's "Last Night")
• Morgan Wallen's the first artist since 1970s Andy Gibb to get back-to-back honors
The 1970s (artist rendering)
• Country music has been doing pretty good on the charts these days... Post and Morgan got Song of the Summer and Shaboozey's "A Bar Song (Tipsy)" coming in at No. 2.

Amazing Race Canada in Miramichi for last night's episode

Written by   on  
The Amazing Race Canada contestants flew into Moncton Airport and drove to Miramich in last night's ep. Video Link 
Icymi… Amazing Race Canada primer: Racers started in Niagara Falls and go through a bunch of  Canadian provinces, finishing in Edmonton. winners get CA$250,000, a trip around the world, and two new  Chevys. Season started on CTV July 2, 2024... wikipedia link
Last night's ep roundup: 
• Teams flew to Moncton and drove to Neguac. They searched an oyster farm for a gold oyster. (Scotty note: I've only seen the promo, but it looks like Red Bank is also featured.)
• Paddy Quinn, Deputy Mayor of Miramichi, greeted teams at one point.
Next Tuesday (Sept. 10) it's the finale.... contestants will fly out of Moncton into Alberta. (Scotty note: remember when we flew out of Moncton to rhe north pole?! Good times, good times. Here's a LINK)
Funal thoughts (praise for the Amazing Race Canada crew)
The places they go to look great on TV...  like there's one scene this week where they are learning a dance in front of the dollar store and it looks beautiful! The most beautifully-shot dollar store you'd ever see on television. And they pronounced Miramichi right!, which doesn't happen everyday. 9/10 would recommend.
