Chuck Dauphin @chuckdauphin 10m10 minutes ago Darius Rucker Helps Raise Money for a Great Cause With Help from Scotty .........from Billboard.com www.billboard.com/articles/columns/country/6590817/darius-rucker-benefit-nashville-scotty-mccreery … One artist who definitely has strong memories of CMA Fest week is Scotty McCreery, also on the bill Monday night. It was the first major country event he played after winning American Idol in 2011. "Thinking back about it, I was in what's called the 'Idol bubble,' he said. They keep you out in LA, and you really don't get to venture anywhere. You're just doing the TV thing, so the 2011 CMA Festival was my first big step into the country music world outside of Idol. I thought, 'Is it like this all the time?' It was crazy, but it was so much fun and pandemonium. That was a fun step into it all, and it opened the floodgates to everything else."
In keeping with CMA Fest tradition, Billboard asked McCreery about the most unique place he has ever signed an autograph -- and he didn't miss a beat. "This really big man had a few too many, and he comes up, lifts up his shirt and says, 'Sign my chest, buddy.' As an artist, you envision other chests, but I gave it to him…and let him keep the Sharpie," he said with a laugh.
McCreery has just finished the first round of songs for an upcoming album, and he can't wait for people to hear it. "We've done five songs already that we've got mastered, so I'm excited about listening to them. I think I've got it narrowed down to about two choices for a single. We'll talk with the label next week. I hope the new music will take me to the next level and hopefully show a little depth to who I am."

Does anyone know whether or not Scotty plans to walk the red carpet at the CMT Awards? So far nothing . . . OK, I can safely answer my own question: No Scotty's not planning to attend this show -- GOOD. Until these shows start treating him with the respect he's earned, he should boycott them all... That said, Scotty's had a great few days in Nashville -- hope the weather holds for tomorrow!
Btw, it's been a successful but exhausting day -- time for a hot bath and a good movie!

As Carol said, the list is not all-inclusive. I hope airnashville wasn't looking at a program from a couple years ago when Scotty did appear. That has happened in the past.
EDIT: OK, I see Deb specifically asked that. Here's hoping

Keeping my fingers crossed, but will not post on the Calendar until we get confirmation on the official site. . . Btw, hope July is full of these high profile media events -- Scotty needs to promote that new single!!!
We got our answer: Scott Joplin @airnashville 27m27 minutes ago Seems we were fed some bad info about @scottymccreery being on the @pbs Capitol 4th telecast. Ain't happening. You're not as sorry as I am.
