Welcome to another edition of The List!!!
Travis Denning is pretty much all over the map when it come to HIS favorite kinds of music. From The Allman Brothers to Rock Legends like Metallica and Slayer and eventually made the jump to Country music…that’s what we do, convert rock people to country music…one..at..a…time
Tracy Lawrence, along with many other entertainers, are more than ready to get back on the road after concerts and shows came to an abrupt halt following the coronavirus outbreak. we asked Tracy how long before we might see him out. “We’re getting ready to start, we got some some acoustic stuff on schedule for the next couple of weeks and hopefully we’re gonna start doing some small shows as we get into June.” One of his friends who’s a promoter has several drive-in theaters considering hosting concerts, thinking that might be the new way people enjoy live music for a while
Shaq was on with Jimmy Kimmel discussing George Floyd and shares the advise he gives his sons if they’re ever pulled over by police first try to defuse the situation by showing respect “and if it happens to get rough, don’t say anything don’t do anything. Just comply, and when all is said and done, you call me and if stuff gets outta hand then I will handle it. I will be the one to act crazy, I don’t want you to act crazy while you’re out there by yourself.” I would NOT want to see a seven foot one Shaquille O’Neal getting crazy…

"Sarah is amazing with her students. She always goes above and beyond to make sure that her students are taken care of."
"Sarah teaches in and out of school no matter where you see her. She is always buying supplies, rewards, etc. out of her own pocket to ensure the kids are getting what they need. She goes above and beyond what any teacher is required to do.

Only Kid Rock could turn a poolside salute into a military investigation. The Army says two Blackhawk helicopters near his Tennessee mansion were just on a Nashville training route, but now they’re checking into why they hovered there. Kid says nobody’s getting in trouble and called it pretty neat. Nothing says casual Tuesday like cannonballs, patriotism, and two black helicopters hovering near your house…

Riley Green is stacking side quests like a pro. He’s making his TV debut on Marshals in mid-April. And because sleep is for other people, he’s also reportedly opening a second Duck Blind bar in Gatlinburg. At this point Riley’s building a country music cinematic universe.

Thomas Rhett says one of his favorite parts of touring is trying wild new foods on the road, which sounds adventurous and expensive. Meanwhile Dylan Scott keeps it a little more backyard chaos at home, admitting he’ll wander into the kitchen at midnight and cook a full meal like it’s noon. His wife wakes up confused; he’s making dinner round two. That’s not a snack, that’s a second shift.
