No Shoes Radio

Orange Beach, Alabama: When the clock hits high noon on Thursday August 6, look for Kenny Chesney to bring his unique kind of country-reggae-rock and beyond to the universe - with the launch of www.noshoesradio.com. Given the unique cross-pollination that's made Kenny Chesney the man who blurs labels and attracts over a million fans each of the past 7 summers, No Shoes Radio reflects that eclectic take on classic and modern music.

With his Greatest Hits II - featuring the 2 week #1 “Out Last night” - Chesney has evolved into the sound of summer in America: exuberant, real, ready to work hard and play harder. Now withwww.NoShoesRadio.com, the fans can plug into their main source any time of the day or night - and not just get music, but surprises ranging from who might be stopping by to surprise concertcasts.


“People ask me what I do and, obviously, cause of the way I sing and where I come from, I'm a country singer, but really, what I do draws on so much more than that,” Chesney explains. “Growing up, I don't think anybody listened to any one kind of thing - and what I think of as country, well, that's not really what we do… But then again, II think most of our fans are listening to other stuff, too, whether it's Dave (Matthews), (Bruce) Springsteen (Tom) Petty or Jackson Browne, not to mention Bob Marley, who I think may be the great equalizer among all kinds of music.”

Drawn in large part from Chesney's iPod, No Shoes Radio will be the ground zero for all things Kenny: interviews with the 4-consecutive Academy of Country Music and 4-time and current Country Music Entertainer of the Year, as well as friends, fans and the crew that's waist deep in this year's Corona Extra sponsored Sun City Carnival. A heady cocktail of good times, good music and that secret ingredient that makes a day at a Kenny Chesney concert so much fun.

To kick the network off, look for the station to go live from the parking lot at 12 noon Eastern time in Orange Beach. Not only will Chesney drop by for an interview and perhaps a few songs, but tour mates Miranda Lambert and Lady Antebellum will be on hand for the inaugural day of broadcast. As if that's not enough, Chesney and his team have been working to simulcast his Orange Beachshow to anyone tuning in on their computer anywhere in the world.

“I always say I wish I could take the fans with us,” Chesney says. “I can't drag people around behind me, but we can still make them part of this concert experience. For me, the idea that I can bring everybody together within all the music that inspires me… well, that's what got me started doing this in the first place - and now we can find a way to bring everybody to the show! It's gonna be cool, and then it's gonna keep rocking…”

Kenny Rogers featured in Billboard’s 50 th  Anniversary of Adult Contemporary chart   Rogers’ Ranks Sixth-Best All Time and Fourth-Best Male with 28 AC Top 10 hits Nashville, TN (August 25, 2011) – According to Billboard, Kenny Rogers’ 28 Adult Contemporary Top 10’s are sixth-best all-time, and fourth-best among men, trailing only Elton John, Neil Diamond and Elvis Presley.  Kenny Rogers' feats on the AC chart include 47 hits, tying him with Barry Manilow for seventh-most in the chart's history. No core country artist has crossed over more titles to AC. Rogers has scored eight AC No. 1s. Rogers: "I remember when [the AC charts] were established, I thought it was so cool. I've always been a believer in the strength of the song. My problem is I'm a country singer who's had a lot of other musical influences, so my stuff is going to tend to be more AC. That's always been my slam in country music, that I was never a true country artist, even though &q

They call her..The Bare Naked Bandit..29 yr Old Lee Grace Doherty

ARRESTED now in Colorado...but what a story and week for 2 brothers and their stripper sister! Text messages and tweets by three fugitive siblings who shot at a police officer and robbed a bank reveal a dangerous mindset and a firm bond between the siblings, "We've certainly seen their mindset when... They shot at a law enforcement officer outside of Tampa Bay, Fla., and when they fired inside that bank in Valdosta, Ga. But these additional texts and tweets have given us additional insight," FBI Special Agent Stephen Emmett told "Good Morning America" today. " We are concerned and feel that they are going to continue and cause problems to say the least for law enforcement." Ryan Dougherty, 21; his sister Lee Grace E. Dougherty, 29; and half-brother Dylan Dougherty Stanley, 26, have been on the lam since Aug. 2 when they shot at a police officer attempting to pull their white Subaru Impreza over for speeding.
