This past week has definitely been crazy! With the CMT Music Awards and the CMA Music Festival, there were plenty of things to do to keep busy inside and outside of the CMT office.
Wednesday, the day of the CMT Music Awards, I volunteered to be a talent escort. I was assigned to Hank Williams Jr. for the night. I was responsible for keeping track of him – making sure he made it to rehearsals on time and was in his dressing room at the top of the show for the opening number. Basically, if he ventured anywhere besides his dressing room, I just had to know where he was so they didn’t lose him. I got to lead him around backstage, and saw many performers. It was a really cool experience; backstage at an awards show is crazy!
I looked at the photos on CMT.com the next morning, and look what I found! haha Can you spot me in this picture? I’m right behind Hank Jr.’s shoulder!

After Hank Williams Jr. got on stage for his performance, I had to leave and get back to the CMT office to help out with the website. I helped out with making photo galleries of the show to be uploaded onto the site.
The next day, I went with an office worker to take pictures of fan fair down at the Nashville Convention Center. It’s crazy down there! A bunch of fans wait hours in line just to see their favorite singers and performers. We took some pictures, and a couple of mine ended up on CMT.com.

On Friday, I tagged along to cover Josh Turner’s fan club party. It was a fun time and I got to take some pictures for the website again!

So this is what I’ve been up too lately! It’s been a really fun week and I got to help out a lot at the office. Let me know what you think of the pictures!
Yayyyyy!!
I like the picture of the guitar signing. It’s my favorite one. Keep up all the awesome.
