Nashville Music Minute: Tire Flips
Tuesday 7th April 2026
Welcome to The List,
This week in country history: The first pandemic concert took place, with the audience sitting in small "fan pods" (2020) . . . and "Achy Breaky Heart" by Billy Ray Cyrus made its first appearance on the Top 40 chart (1992).
-----
Exciting news for NFL fans and “Swifties” alike…Taylor Swift was factored into the upcoming NFL season. Her tour takes her to the stadiums where the Dolphins, Saints, and Colts play this fall, so the league had to make sure those teams were all on the road on those dates.
-----
A lot of country stars were at the ACM Awards last week. But noticeably, there were quite a few missing. Luke Combs and Morgan Wallen are superstar status, and don't need to go to awards shows anyway . . . and Dolly and Garth co-hosted last year, but skipped this year.
-----
The great Dabney Coleman has passed away. He was 92. His credits included "Tootsie", "9 to 5", "War Games", and the TV shows "Boardwalk Empire" and "Yellowstone".
