Which Way Is Up?

Country music veteran Lorrie Morgan is building a hot chicken place in Panama City, FL.
She joins a long line of Music Row stars adding food service to their resume.

Just this week, Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan announced their partnership in a Music Row area Chop House. Nearby Brad Paisley and friends building a charity grocery store.

Kenny Rogers once told me he made more money in the chicken business than in music! The reverse was the outcome for comedian Minnie Pearl and her ill-fated chicken biz. Famous people like to build their own ... cheers!

Many of these restaurant moguls getting ready for Vegas and the ACM awards April 7th. Taking a page from the Grammy production guide book, collaborations are the musical headlines. No risk booking George Strait with Miranda Lambert. Khalid with Kane Brown topping the "pushing the norm" page.

The ACM promo teams is generating talk and buzz. Good job so far!

Luke Combs just has great week after great week. The big question: How is the Kasey Musgraves train rolling with these huge pushes? Is radio bending? Will the ACM show push radio to play more female acts?

It's Spring Break ... take one. It's good for you!
