Trace Adkins is a busy guy this fall...not only will he be out touring along side Alan Jackson, Trace will head overseas for a week long trip to entertain the troops this fall. As part of the USO/Armed Forces entertainment tour, Trace will perform, visit bases, and hold M&G type sessions where he'll sign autographs and take pictures with the troops. Trace has been a tireless supporter of our nation's military men and women and he says of this new tour, "I'm really humbled by the opportunity to spend more time with our nation's finest. This is such an honor for me to be able to visit with our military and tell them how much we truly appreciate all the sacrifices they make for our country and our freedom." Kudos Trace!
In early October, there will be a film released showcasing Reverend Billy Graham's life called Billy: The Early Years. To go along with that film, a soundtrack will be released that includes songs featuring Alan Jackson, Sara Evans, Brad Paisley, Brooks & Dunn, and Josh Turner. Josh Turner will also make his film debut as he plays Graham's musical partner, George Beverly Shea.
The soundtrack will be released on October 7th, with the film opening just a couple of days later on October 10th.
Alan Jackson and his family are celebrating a trio of major life achievements within the next couple of months...not only are they celebrating Alan's career achievement of selling 50 million albums, they are also proud to be sending their oldest daughter to college, and then they will celebrate Alan's 50th birthday!
Alan & Denise, accompanied by their 3 daughters, joined 400 of their closest family & friends to celebrate Alan's career milestone Wednesday night in Nashville. Alan, ever the shy center of attention, remained that the music is what matters when a reporter asked him how it felt to have sold 50 million records. He replied to the reporter "It's 50 times better than the 1st million, I guess...I still go back to the music. That's the part of the business that I like best." Conversation later changed to the big event of sending his daughter, Mattie off to Wake Forest University in a couple of weeks. While Alan is proud and prepared, Denise is a little more reserved...Alan says "My wife is a little teary eyed and I might be when the time comes but I just feel like you raise them and prepare them for that and that's what you gear them up to do. That's part of life." Agreeing to the "teary eyed" comment, Denise confesses "I'm already feeling the loss."
When a reporter brought up the comparison of selling 50 million records and turning 50 (October 17th) within the same time period, Alan replied "That's a couple of good milestones, and I appreciate them both." Sounds like a busy and very exciting time in the Jackson household!
Sugarland's "All I Want To Do" knocked Alan Jackson's "Good Time" out of the #1 spot! We can't get enough of it! What a great summertime feel good song! We're also excited to say that Luke Bryan's "Country Man" climbed 2 spots this week to #20!
