Tim McGraw - thoughts.... Did he have a clue he was at Stagecoach???

[Damnwhataride]

I've rarely seen a headliner so disconnected from the audience. He actually didn't know where he was or what the event was - although he knew he was in California and had a long plane ride back tonight. IMO the performance was half hearted at best - and at worst he looks like he partied too much before starting the set. Sad compared to last years finish!

I thought the Eagles was the low point of a major headliner just playing their normal set - great graphics - low energy accept you could tell they didn't really like each other - but knew where they were and how to do their job - McGraw set a new standard for where am I and how do I get out of here quicker - His set started almost 20 min late - yet he 'finished' at the time scheduled. The earlier part of the evening tonight was nothing sort of outstanding .....

just a late night after two hours of driving ramble....

[schradog]

Yes i would have to agree. Tim was not on his game. Totally dissappointed, was really looking forward to him. And that thought that I could have gotten a few more hours of shut eye if I had known that he was gonna just go through the motions, not to mention, not knowing the words to his songs and singing the same verse TWICE.

Overall though, the weekend was great!!! Can't wait to find out who they dig up for next year :o

[LadiesLoveCountryBoys]

I agree that Tim was not on his game...I have seen him several times and he was not himself. Before everyone starts condeming him though, he is human and from where we were sitting, we all thought he looked like he was fighting a cold or maybe allergies! His voice was off when he spoke and then the other things that were mentioned. There was so much, what looked like sand and dust, coming from behind the stage and I would imagine because of the wind it was tough on the performers. Tim seems to be such a professional, that I would wait to throw such stones...but that is just my opinion.

[carol7lynn]

I agree about the Eagles. ;) They could have phoned that one in. I'm a long time Eagle fan and have flown all the way to Scotland just to see them perform. Friday was a major disappoint for this fan. Absolutely no interaction with the audience. Every move seemed by rote. Maybe there was something going on behind the scenes. Wasn't the usual majic that's for sure.

Guess he would have started sooner if both Underwood and himself would have been less concerned about the photographers not shooting first song set....
I think Big and rich were the only ones that had an opener and went on long to create a back up ....

Wow the line to get in to take photos was fun....
Actually a great crowd just trying to do there job....
The highlights had to be the girl telling us she was Jenny Craig's daughter and she should be able to get in before any photographers...:cool:
That was hyestrical...:D
Guess you had to be there....lol

[koalababy]

Well I enjoyed all the acts and yes we all have our days.......the only thing I didn't get was that tim waved - no encore on the final night???? and alsooooooooooo maybe that jenny craig daughter was the same bimbette that needed to push people out of the way at the dwight yoakum show - sad day that some people thing they are sooooooo awesome they should be rude to others!! Think maybe next year should be only full weekend tickets - keep out some of the riftraff!!!!!!!!!! Overall the crowd was well behaved but did notice the police were working a bit harder then last year ~smile~ Thank you officers!!

You are so right..
Another classic was the lady I said excuse me to having no other way out but to ask politely if I could step over her purse she so politely place in front of her so no one could walk out of her isle....
After saying excuse me please may I step over your purse to exit..
She so stoutly stated that this was not an exit but her own area...
&*%^...
Ok I said well it's either the lady in front of your's head or your purse...
I did not know they were selling deeds of land there..
Guess that old ingress egress is a good law to have when over demanding people are invlved....:rolleyes:

The good thing is there are allot more kind sweet people then those that obviously are off there meds to drink....
I take that back those individuals are probably self centered all the time...
Wow...

[koalababy]

I so agree and yesssssssss most are super people - I truly had a wonderful time and will be there next year too - may get an RV for next year though - mannnnnn that walk is a killerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!! specially when yer walking a lot to see everything else - LOL - I trulyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy enjoyed myself most of the weekend!!!

I'm with you on the walk...
The first day we trecked all the equipment in and walked from the house the first 17min walk was not bad but doing 4x in one day and the other times...
OMG I may be in shape to wear the Bikini and cowboy boots by next year if I did that daily...:cool:
Well I'm old so maybe a good plastic surgeon too...
I'll be next to you in Eldorado 1 even though I live a few country blocks...:D

[schradog]

Yeah I have a feeling that the parking/walking situation is going to be a big issue. And what was the point of that huge area/ wasted area, right after you scanned your ticket?? Didn't quiet understand why we couldnt have turned that into some parking of some sort.

[koalababy]

Shuttlesssss perhaps????????????? At least from the really far out spots! Oops clothes dryer buzzing guess I should get off this thing and get otherrrrr stuff done round here so I can sleep for work tonight - ughhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! LOL

Your right I'll never get my photos done from Saturday and last night...
Whew thank goodness I don't have deadlines like some of my other new friends...
This artist is getting in a creative mode all my artist friends gotta look fabulos....:)
Bring on the green drink....

[carol7lynn]

Horse,

I wonder if the girl who said she was Jenny Craigs' daughter was the same scammer who said she was a producer from the Dr. Phil show on Friday night. She tried to chat me up because I had a front row seat and would be her go-to person if and when security questioned her. Of course, I blew her off knowing full well a producer for Dr. Phil would be stage side with the other VIPS.

Tim McGraw was going through the motions last night. He did not put on his typical show that he normally does. He did the bare bones minimum to fulfill his obligations. I was totally disappointed that he ended our great weekend. He threw lemons at his stage hands, poured water on his drummer and "yes" I do believe that he may have been sick. He should have told "us" the crowd that he didn't have his "A" game. That would have given him the out. Instead we all feel cheated. "I still love Tim McGaw" that will not change.

[Ajax]

I LOVE Tim Mcgraw, and he was the main reason we decided to go to StageCoach and pay extra for reserved seats. So when he came out to a song No one had ever heard of I wasn't even sure if he was really starting or not. Then I kept wathcing him thinking wow he looks like he's been crying, then it hit me- he was completely lit! Allergies? I don't think so. I was disappointed to say the least. He never really got the crowd going at all and even forgot lines to his song (actually that was kind off funny).Did anyone else notice how he left the stage and than came back and said that crap about only having to catch a plane, he sounded upset that his time wasn't up yet and had to play more. And as soon as that hour was up he ws gone. Do you think he could have been upset with GoldenVoice for something(maybe that Prince got 4 million last weekend)? I know he's only human and everyone has off days but not the expected a lot more from my favorite country artist.

[schradog]

Missed the lemons thing, being that I was watching the screen from my vantage point.
Yeah still love him, and yes communicate, we will all understand and respect you and maybe even feel sorry for your cute ass. I would have been more than happy to go backstage and take care of him in Faith's absense.

[smt]

I was surpised that there was little interaction with the audience. It looked like his show was on fast forward with no time for comerical breaks. Almost like the clock was ticking and he had to get in his agreed to number of songs and then bolt.
In his defense, it was chilly, windy and very dusty. maybe he took alergy medicine? It makes me loopy..

[hodgee5]

He sucked ass... Im still mad

[Ajax]

Can't disagree with you there.

Yeah...
The stories were getting pretty deep in the pit front of stage...lol...
It actually was entertainment for the most...
I told Jenny's daughter I knew how she felt..I was Tony Robbins sister and Obama's neighbor and I also should be let in before her..
She asked me before that if I was paparazzi..
My self and the great gal I met about fell over laughing...:D
They must have been drinking around the fire figuring out there stories and who's would get them inn...:cool:

[schradog]

Great thanks for the humor Horse. Did you take a photo of her? We could really find out who she is and send her some weight related questions to see if her mom could help all of us.

[Ajax]

Now that's funny! You should have asked for her Jenny Craig ID or more likely wristband.

I completely agree with this post. We were sitting next to two ER nurses who commented the second he hit the stage how tore up he was. My aunt went and saw him a few months ago in Vegas. She said he was tanked at that concert and hoped he'd redeem himself to her at Stagecoach, needless to say.. that didn't happen. I'd give him the allergy thing but even those meds don't make you forget the words to songs you've sung over and over. And as far as having to catch a plane.. come on now.. how long has he been booked for Stagecoach? could he not make later travel arrangements? I've looked forward to seeing Tim for a long time and was disappointed to say the least!

[Ajax]

We saw him and Faith at Soul 2 Soul last summer and it was awesome, maybe she needs to be at all his performances.

Yea you know how the boys can play rough when wife is gone..
Silly boys....
Well lets give him a break after losing his dad and the responsibilities of fatherhood can bring the best of us to let loose every once in a while..
Come on guys live like you were dying..???
Did anyone notice the incredible sunset that night or the great people around them..
What a great venue...
Hopefully he will be up 100% next go around.
Were all human...
Except Jenny's Daughter...:rolleyes:
I'm not worthy...:eek: lol lol

[sunkisses]

I've seem him twice before and he was outstanding. I was soooo disappointed this time. I agree, he looked drunk as a skunk!

Horse,

I agree, we were all tearing up from the darn wind and all the sand blowing around. By the second hour we were there we were all hiding behind our cowboy hats. Quite a few artists had trouble that day. If you noticed Gretchen, Carry & Tim were all having trouble with the wind/sand and tearing up with the rest of us. Didn't anybody notice that during Tim the wind was so strong that it blew the sound guard down around the drummer and they had to dismantle it during the concert. I sure hope he didn't get hurt.

Yea..
I was about to drop when Tim came on even with allergy medicine..
My eyes were so bad this morning...
Yes...
I had a Captain Morgan and coke but gezzzzz.
My eyes were still stuck together today...
I think the black curtain kept flying up and keeping me from a great photo along with the camera film guy on stage....:rolleyes:
I'm sure it is more then any of you know....
Always two sides to a story...
Buy the way loved meeting ya rose...
Come out my way anytime to take on Neils once more....:D

[Cooter]

told you guys that dust gets nasty! i came well prepared with my bandana and added some visine to the mix the last couple weekends!

there is a condition known as the "coachella flu" that seems to happen to a lot of us each year. this year i combated that by staying hydrated, used my bandana, and the visine...came out pretty much unscathed...also shied away from alcohol this year. the biggest cause of all the crappy feeling seems to be the drinking, though. dehydration just destroys people at events like that.

[sunkisses]

Best part of sitting in the cheap seats....no dust there. None of us were bothered by it!!!

[heavenlymoon76]

dehydration just destroys people at events like that.

I can attest to that! Last year on Saturday I failed to keep myself hydrated while drinking alcohol, like my husband said to, and UGH Sunday was not pretty :o Won't ever do that again!

[TRISERATOP]

Oh my gosh.....was just telling hubby today that Tim totally s**ked last night. I remember last year, and the place was almost 1/2 empty for Kenny and he tried his hardest to get everyone riled up. Then you have Tim, who still has a packed house and he goes through the motions, tries to come off the stage after playing for 40 minutes, gives us a few more songs and just leaves. He played longer at Soul 2 Soul when he was sharing a concert with Faith. Doubt I'll ever go see him again.......it was such an awesome weekend and he ended it abruptly and rudely.

Will definitely be back for next year........was so glad to see so many more people there this year. Big and Rich and Dwight Yoakam were my picks for the "Rock the house" award!!

[DISNEYCHIC2]

Well at least the Gold Circle and Press were lucky. It could have been much worse.. He could have shared his lunch and dinner with the front row..

Ok Rock the house Good old Gretchen ,Trace Adkins, and Chuck Wicks....
Sunday really started to rock and then the hold up...
Carrie and Tim... too much time ....
Too bad becuse these guys rocked along with Big and Rich...

Also any one else that thought Dierks Bentley was so great...
Many in my group not even country fans could not wait to go get his alblum...
Way to go guys...
:D :D :D

[maddy1212]

The only reason I stayed for Tim is to get some pics, say I got to see him and I didn't want anyone taking my chair. I was not impressed at all. He totally was not into it. It was like listening to the radio with a guy on stage kinda walking around. Guess some artists should stick to cd's.

Ya might have something there during hard times....

[Lizzy]

Tim Mcgraw was drunk. Friend gave us mane stage passes and went backstage and there was no fan interaction at all. Security guards moved barricade back about 4 ft and when people where asking he said, this is not even the amount of room he wanted between him and his fans. We went back out to our seats and saw him on the screen and told my husband Tim Mcgraw is so tanked! I looked forward to seeing him in concert and it was a let down.

[Rose]

Backstage means just that, backstage where everybody is "WORKING". It has nothing to do with meeting an artist, getting anything autographed or having fun. Backstage is not for any fan. If you want to be a fan and are looking for "the party" then be out front for the show.

[Lizzy]

I know that but there was a barricade by the stairs going up to the stage and there were plenty of small kids who were fans and hoped to take a picture or get an autograph. i had the bracelet and went back so my husband could see carrie underwood, heck he was happy just to see her that close. I just think regardless of backstage, or even those who forked out the big bucks for gold circle or reserved, he and every other artists should keep it real and shake some kids hands, do a couple of autographs.. Halfway to hazard was great to their honorary "Daisy". It was nice to see an artist make a kids day.
I agree that the show is up front, we went back for a few minutes and went out and watched the show and had a great time

[Rose]

I can't agree with you more Lizzy. The little ones should get attention from all the stars/artists. H2H were AWESOME with Daisy and that made everybody feel very warm and happy that they took the time to make that little gals day.

I'm not defending anyone but if you think about it...I'm sure Tim McGraw did that for a many of little girls way back when. It's probably at the point for him now or any big artist to think, I spend so much time with kids that are dying in hospitals that I don't have enough time for the ones whom are healthy and doing well. My friend who joined me for the concert from Big Bear just started crying like crazy (cowboy's don't cry) for a little girl who sat behind us and had no hair and you could just tell she had Cancer. I kept asking if he was O.k. but it really bothered him that somebody so young was sick. My EXACT words to my friend was....She is sky-diving and Rocky Mountain Climbing.

I'm Just Saying

[Lizzy]

I heard that he does not go through the crowd putting his hand out anymore because of the incident where his ring was stolen, some people are sick and ruin it for others.
I knew what to expect afterthe the thread I had posted about backstage passes and many said their experiences. I do relalize that if he did it for every kid he would prob never make it home!

I hope the girl you were the girl you are talking about had a good view, there were many people in wheel chairs or chair bound that had their view blocked by inconsiderate people, but then again it is a festival and what else can you expect but everyone wanting to dance their asses to great music!! I know I prob lost about 5 pounds from dancing...

[sunkisses]

I've formally complained to Stagecoach and Goldenvoice about Shelby Lynne and Tim McGraw's performances. I work hard for my money and it was embarrassing and offensive.:mad:
Ya might have something there during hard times....

[horsephotographer]

Come on now girls...
Maybe he had that bad flu and did not want anyone to get it...
I have learned long ago unless you walk a mile in someone elses shoes it's kinda hard to tell the real story along the path...
I don't care what he did he was hot looking....
I myself had to wait for him up against a fence not saying it was not pleasant for me either..... just saying we should all think twice before we judge others..
For goodness gracious your bashing the sweet little girl with cancer's hero...:o
OK with that said..
I loved hearing him...:D
By the way it was windy as heck up there on stage....
Yeah I know call me little Pollyanna with an attitdue....:rolleyes:

I think the point and disappointment w/ Tim is NOT that he looked like he'd been crying, nor that he was late. I even understand this keeping his eyes closed b/c of the wind. It was more how he walked off after 4 songs waving goodbye seemingly lost, or that he forgot the words to his song. I thought the fact he didn't sing an ancore, showed someone else wasn't letting him back out.. I've NEVER been to a concert where the main artist DIDN'T come back out. Good looking or not, I think it was plainly obvious he was on something. Yes an artist CAN be judged for that as this is the job they've chosen to get paid to do, and WE pay them!

[sunkisses]

I do agree with that....something was definitely off. Hope it wasn't something serious...Thank God he wasn't the mainliner with only an opening band or we would have been screwed!

[TRISERATOP]

Well said Glock Girl. I don't care whose hero he is, but we ALL paid big bucks and stayed to the bitter end for him to pull that. He could have said he was under the weather, a little tipsy or just plain drunk. But to just walk off and then come back out (actually looking bummed out that he had to) was not right. He was SOOOO pumped up in Anaheim and just kept on playing until the fans had had enough. I just thought it was a downer ending for a very successful evening........Big and Rich would have been more appropriate to close the show with how they got everyone (like them or not) fired up.

Just my .02........I think the organizers need to make sure that whoever the closer is on Sunday night be a little more into it.......Kenny Chesney did a great job last year.

[Cooter]

Just my .02........I think the organizers need to make sure that whoever the closer is on Sunday night be a little more into it.......

so they should put in the contracts that they are required to be in a good mood that day and they are not allowed to be sick/under the weather/A HUMAN BEING/whatever??? jesus christ people!

[IheartMillerLite]

I had never seen Tim perform before and I was really looking forward to seeing him. It was such a letdown for me. He didn't seem to want to be there at all and soon I started to feel the same way.

[snappyjoy]

I have seen Tim 10+ times, some big performances some intimate, he has never been the way he was at Stagecoach. I was soo disappointed. I can even say how bad that was of him. I could not see his eyes, no inner action, not even there willingly... it seemed.
Sad not on his game.... at all.

[Kymery]

My quick two cents, since I am sore, lost my voice and am swamped with work.

HE SUCKED.. You know, he may of been sad, drunk, sick, dissapointed, whatever the issue....he took it out on us! The ones who sign his paycheck basically.

He just walked out, started singing, no intro, no nothing!! Guess he feels he has a right to treat his fans like he did.

George Jones, was awesome, played, and the audience was louder than the mane stage, and HE APPRECIATED IT!! Same for Dwight.

An excuse for sick?...no way, when I saw George Straight a few years back, he was so sick, no voice but gave us a small show, then apologized and we all got a new concert a month later at NO CHARGE, now that is class.

I waited three days, of walking miles and mile to see him as the last show and wanted to leave with a WOW factor....NOTHING!!

As for the inconsiderate dorks that stood in the VIP isles, what the heck! That was plain rude, also as for the security, they would clear and they would come back, I know that many, many people could not see the stage, me included because two 12 yr olds had to stand (they were isle front row) and they just wanted to be rude, no one in front of them, and mom told them it was ok..yeah, she was a winner also. They weren't even dancing etc, they just did it to be rude.

[Glockgirl]

Cooter,.. over the past year I've been on your side of the fence on many topics. I haven't read much since returning from Stagecoach so I'm not sure if you went this year. If you did, what was YOUR impression of Tim?


Btw, Lisa & Joy-- it was great running into both of you again!

I agree with you, catch a plane? we said the same thing, schedule accordingly, and IF YOU WOULD OF BEEN ON STAGE ON TIME YOU WOULDNT OF BEEN RUNNING LATE.

Come on guys, these bands are to play, rain or shine, they know there is wind...did anyone see the guys they sent up to the rafters to work the lights, swinging on them, they were crazy, stayed up there the whole time Tim was up (ok, not long...ahahaa) Put some glasses on then! sheesh, this is the windy part of the desert!!!!

[Cooter]

i was home in bed by the time tim came on due to the wind beating me up, so i wasn't there to see him. i was there all weekend, though. i have been to well over 400 concerts in the last 12 years or so and have seen plenty of artists on their "off" days. it is what it is and these guys are bound to break down every once in awhile. at coachella there was a performer, who happened to be one of the most looked forward to by many, who packed the largest tent and then proceeded to complain about the sound the whole time. she only got through 6 songs over her 50 minute set. sure we were all disappointed, but hey, what can you do?

[carslikes2party]

I expected alot more from him, not impressed at all. I hope there was something wrong that made him sing his own song WRONG and just plain out acted like he didn't want to be there.

[Glockgirl]

I think sound and wires being off is one thing- I think we all know that stuff isn't up to the performer, I think however coming to the stage intoxicated is another. His lack of interaction to the audience was a bummer. I'm not completely done w/ Mr McGraw, if he came back I'd give him another shot--- I was just disappointed in what he brought to Stagecoach and was interested in knowning I wasn't alone in what I thought of him.

You're right. And I'm not sure if that's a good thing this time around! Sorry we couldn't stay and hang out more. So many people to try and say hi to!

[horsephotographer]

Well it is a sad day when fans turn on having a bad day ....:o
After shooting many celebrities animals over the years.

I would not want there job for anything my friend so people thinking there in there lives and know everything about them...
How would want to know about someone else's life unless they had none of there own......
I just look at all of them as human with a job to do ...
Man your a tough crowd hat for you to be my boss....


The day you think this world is perfect is the the day you obviously are dissapointed.....
Yes working in this Field is demanding as an artist and you will never please anyone..

Some people want to have a good time and dance while others think it rude..The young think if your sitting your old..
Go figure everyone has a voice...

Your opinion is valid and so is the voice of the other person....

The sad part is the compassion and empathy thats missing in this world for others thru thoughts of validity in this life to be important more then others....

Well thats what makes it a show my friends....
Just watching the different people is hysterical....

The ups the downs the can't wait to start the story someone I saw was drunk cuz God knows it makes people not in the spotlight feel important...

Yes everyone is important the fan the artist but most of all the respect you show for others differences.....

Not saying Tim has always never been on stage 100% as a performer...
Yet the guy is amazingly talented and my hats off to him and a wish for a speedy recovery back to energized stage presecnse...

Oh and I wonder what time penalty Golden Voice had to pay after a certain time playing over what was contracted?
I know at horse show venues it's alot of money...

I think there is always more to any situation then the normal Joe will ever know...(besides Entertainment Law Attorneys)

That entertainment info business is more then what ya hear from a friend or see with your own eyes and makes you sure ya know the whole story.....

So bring on the hear say I'm sure they would love ya in there fan base....:rolleyes:

I will say it was hard not ending on a high note but come on if he did not ya wouldn't have something to talk about today......:cool:

I'm starting to like Cooter more and more......:D

[askworldtraveler]

He was the final day headliner - the show stopper - the honor spot - the one we wait for and stuck in a locked camp ground get home at 4am in the morning for - and while everyone can have an off day - they generally know how to acknowledge it to their fans - and know where the heck they are.

Sick, Flu, Voice,worry or immediate hurt in a family are not a matter of choice - that happens - Drugs, Drunk, altered state - are a choice. I know I will never buy a ticket to see him again - simply because he didn't give a s++t about the audience Sunday night and it will happen again.

It's not Goldenvoice's fault - although they "may" have paid him a bundle to be there - it lays squarely on McGraw - I too have been to many 100's of concerts (ok, I've got a few more years then many of you :D ) and never seen such a total collapse. I will find the address of his agent - and if possible where where McGraw may actually read his own mail and send the Fed Ex so it gets opened. His behavior and lack of caring simply wasn't ok.

[Hotshots]

I only missed one act at stagecoach and that was Tim McGraw. Sounds like leaving before he appeared was the best move I made all weekend long!

I agree!! I was falling asleep, but waited for HIM! and he knows that! The ONLY reason i think people waited till he was done in the VIP area was for our chairs...selfish us! hahahaah otherwise that place would of been emptied by the 3rd song,,oh yeah, thats all he played, OK< OK 6 songs.

[schradog]

so they should put in the contracts that they are required to be in a good mood that day and they are not allowed to be sick/under the weather/A HUMAN BEING/whatever??? jesus christ people!

AMEN! You cant control sickness for the most part, if that what was wrong with him. Still enjoyed seeing him even though he was not all that and a bag of chips!

[horsephotographer]

Life is way to short...
Gotta Love ya....:D

[dre15]

Maybe if Big & Rich wouldn't have hogged the stage for 2 hours and threw in Cowboy Troy, Tim would have had more time to play. I have seen Tim McGraw about 5 or 6 times because I love him and yes he was off but that does not change the fact that I love him as an artist. I was still singing and dancing through his whole performance and I look forward to seeing him again.

That pretty much sums it up.......
I never seen them and thought Cowboy troy was Big and the two foot fred was rich????
Did anyone else get a opener????
They were great to get the crowd off there butts...:D
Anyone not dancing should stay in the back for filming....:rolleyes:
The whole front rows that paid big bucks were standing....
Yelling it was great...

[Kymery]

Maybe that is why Tim look hammered, he had to drink his way thru Cowboy Troy, I know I did!! ahahahaha

I that that was disrepectfull to put Troy out there as an "opener". They were not the headliners.

Ok I have agree with ya on that part about the opener.:confused:

[SassyVal]

I know that I was really looking forward to seeing TIM MCGRAW and he did look like something was wrong with him, whatever it was, I still think that man is HOT!!! I was not thrilled at his performance, but looking at him was a great thing... HOT man... got a nice shot of his back side too... Whatever is going on with him, I will keep him in my thoughts & prayers...

[Rose]

We were able to take 5 chairs this year so a lot of people did leave early. Then again that happened last year too. I don't know why it's a California thing to do is leave a ball game early or a concert early to beat the traffic. I always stay to the very end and get my money's worth.

[dre15]

I agree with you Kymery, about drinking through Cowboy Troy! HA HA!

We paid thousands to go on the COUNTRY CRUISE GETAWAY. 2 yrs ago with Tim McGraw & he was so awful that my man wouldn't even stay to watch him at Stagecoach. He was drunk on the cruise, forgot most of the words & complaining. we will never pay to see him again.!

[Kymery]

Well, after this, with this many people, Tim may have dug his own grave. Hmmm, I will drink to that...no wait, not yet, maybe this weekend...ughh

We got 5 chairs also! Tried for 7, but too hard to carry

[horsephotographer]

vengeful........:eek:
Somehow I don't think you will hurt his carrer...
No wonder I had a dream that Jurassic park was chasing poor McGraw last night...:eek:
Wow guess I never realized how much others behaviors effected others happiness...:rolleyes:
Gotta get out of the sand box kitties lots of work to do..
Ya all play nice while I'm gone now....:)

[Kymery]

I know MY ticket wont make a diff, but hmmm havent really found one person who really enjoyed it. it will take its toll someday on him if this is how his show is.

You just wonder if his daughters and wife witness this.

[TRISERATOP]

Excuse me for not being Pollyanna and singing Kumbaya, but I am an extremely positive person......just disappointed to have had to wait for, and sit through the most disheartened and bored performer that I have ever witnessed (I too have been to over 100 concerts).....Big and Rich summed it up best when they said, with the gas prices at an all-time high and everything so expensive, thanks for coming out and buying tickets to see us and all the other performers. That's country music folks.......not the VIP gold circle people who were "given" seats by Toyota and any other big sponsor. To go out there and not give anything but your best (not asking 100%, just your best) is appalling. As an entertainer, that's your job. It's like going to an expensive dinner that you've saved up for all month, and having a waitress that's having a "bad day" ruin your meal.

Maybe he was sick.....then say something. Maybe he was drunk....then maybe stick to touring with Faith so you don't get out of hand. But at least be a happy, giddy drunk and not a total letdown at the end of a fantastic festival.

That's all I'm sayin'.......

[Kymery]

good reply!!!!

[Kymery]

So I was thinking, which usually gets me in trouble the hubby says...but...

IF those of you who "forgive" him and "understand:

If you had bought tickets to JUST HIM, no huge venue, and you took the day off, drove to his venue, paid $20 parking, $10 drinks, food, t-shirts etc, and you sat down and he played 6 songs with no explanaition of why he is acting strange, would you be "ok with it" too? Would you still be happy, understanding, get up, leave the venue and say "wow, he did not look well, but that was amazing" NO WAY.

Tim maybe figured, we had our fill of entertainment and he doesnt care. I paid over $1200 for tickets to see everyone I can, and expect them to "entertain" no excuses. At least Strait has the class to rebook his concerts when hes not feeling well, hmmm but who would admit to being too drunk to sing?

[LadiesLoveCountryBoys]

You guys are all being so tough...maybe folks should take a closer look at putting celebs on pedestals that they can be knocked off!!!! I was disappointed with Tim's show too, but since I have seen him perform amazingly many times before, and since I have screwed up MANY times in my life...I will cut the man some slack on this one. The weekend was so great and there were so many more great things that took place...maybe that would be more fun to chat about!!!

Great that people have seen him several times, but many, many saved for this one chance to see him, other stages, other entertainment or not.

I for one do not place him on any pedestal, but I expect respect from someone my tickets helped pay for.

[LadiesLoveCountryBoys]

my only point in saying that I had seen him before is that I too have invested my hard earned cash on tickets to see him many times and his good shows out weigh Sunday night and I will allow the man not to be perfect!!!!

[KittyLeigh]

Yes, we're all human - people get sick, etc.... But it's his JOB to be a performer - and I don't know that he did his job the best he could. Someone mentioned if he had SAID something to the crowd about not being on his game completely - he might've been off the hook.

I don't know that Big and Rich "hogging the stage" as some people said would've made a difference. It's not like that would've made his performance BETTER - just longer!?

I enjoyed the songs he did - but he was off. I was hoping for better. But I'd give him another chance. Never saw him perform before - but I've heard he can give some AWESOME concerts - so maybe I'll give him another chance if the opportunity presented itself. :)

[billifer]

whatever..!!!!!!!!!!!!!

we're all human!!!!!!!!!

Seeing Tim McGraw suck twice & paying big bucks for it twice... Wont happen a 3rd time, I wont support him if its FREE!!

After seeing Chesney in Concert 6 times and he puts on the best show night after night,year after years with the same energy, Tim can stick it!! Theres no excuse!

[honkytonkangel]

I too was disappointed with Tims show and I am not saying he can't be human and have bad days (like we all do), but I know if I showed up to my JOB in his state I would be FIRED. And it is his JOB.....So for me this is strike one for Tim. :(

[DISNEYCHIC2]

Wow I am actually feeling pretty good about having to drive my drunken younger sister home before Tim and Carrie came on... At the time I was totally enraged that I had to leave.. Now... Not so much..

[Lizzy]

Regardless of what we paid for,general admission, vip or gold we deserved a great show. When it was all done I told my husband, this is nothing like last year, no crowd shouting for encores, no grand finale. What a diaspointment,.

[horsephotographer]

Well OK then you kitties are still scratching at this same post...
I would think Tim would demand some respect from all the nobody's out there playing from the sideline couch...

Now you have been chewing on the same bone for hours....


Enjoy my honest opionion......:D

If ya can't afford a great time out dinner or concerts stay home and enjoy your controlled atmosphere ...:D

Did I say that ???

Wow I really am getting punchy still..

The only thing I hate worse then someone not doing there job is a bunch a cry babies...
OK ..
Turn the radio on and don't forget to to turn it down every time ya boycott Tim songs.....:rolleyes:
Silly Kitties....:cool:
Oh I forgot was I Pollyanna????
I hate when that happens..
Some just bring out the best in me...
Yet this is the real sweet side...:D

Wow but watching ya have the energy to cut everything down but the alcohol haze is a hoot to watch....
You go girls....:D

Yes you are right you should not see him agian....:D

[DISNEYCHIC2]

The people that should be the most upset is GoldenVoice.. The artists I am sure don't play for free... And I am sure that GoldenVoice expects that they will perform well (although they have no control over the artists and their demands). So maybe you will see an apology from Tim on some sort of official fan page or not.. His official fan page "people" and I am sure he does not frequent these boards... So I'm thinking that whichever Artist you have issues with, you go directly to their official fan-site and voice your opinion.. Maybe we can save other people that would pay to see him live...

good idea and then maybe you can all ask him if the stories started about him being drunk are true...
I'm sure they can't wait to hear how to better there carre's...
Oh yea I remember Elvis how they stayed away from him when he had his problems...
The man sells more now even then when he was with us...:D

I hope he does look at the boards to how much slander and accusation are flying in here.
Maybe his attorney could get back to all of ya.....

Well drunk people usually slur their words... I wasn't there, but my husband was and said that he sounded fine...not enthused... So my gut instinct is that he got some really bad news...either early in the day or before he went on stage and was obligated to give his fans something... If he only sang 6 songs and then left the stage only to come back looking like he did not want to sing anymore it could have been emotional for him, that would explain why he didn't remember some of the words to the songs he has sung over and over again...
A rush to judgement is usually a big mistake... I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.

Do you mean that Tim should have come on stage and say that he really didn't want to be there, because he was emotional and share his personal life with the fans?
Professional artists don't do that usually..
I am sure that if he did he personal life would have been on the front page and talked about all over the radio.. It seems that he tried to just get through what he needed to get through... Maybe that is the reason that Big & Rich went for as long as they did... All the artists seem to stick together..

Yes, say something. I have been to concerts that this has happened. He would of received our respect had he just said "hey guys, I know you came a long way, money, time, heat etc, but I was just dealt some news and I will do my best for you...I love you and thank you for coming!! you are the best" Then I would of wondered, by my heart would of went out to him and worried that everything is ok, with his wife, kids etc.

OR..."hey, sorry guys, I am Sh*&^ faced and cant remember my words, so here is what you get"

OR...Like G Strait did, "hey, how is everyone? I am cruddy, very sick, so This is all I can do, I really hope you enjoy and and I am very sorry" (then we got another FREE concert from him a month later!!)

[sunkisses]

Come on now, the horse is officially dead! Move on already!

[mk1644]

I was very disappointed in Tim McGraw's performance. I have seen him numerous times before and I knew something wasn't right. We had VIP seats close to the stage and the things he was doing (throwing lemons, pouring water on the band, hitting his band members, messing up his lines) I knew that he was messed up-whether it was medication or booze. I told my girlfriend who had never seen him before that not to count this as how he normally performs. I figured he had a night away from the wife and kids (fly in- fly out) so he was partying it up with the boys while he could. Just a bummer to end the great weekend with a late and short performance from him. Kind of spoiled it.

I agree... That is why I suggest that everyone flood his official site and tell them how you feel... If enough tell him their thoughts he might be compelled to explain himself and take responsibility for his actions..
Sunkisses is right.... it's not doing us any good here to beat a dead horse (no pun intended Horsephotographer)...

[sunkisses]

Elvis Presley Enterprises typically brings in 40 million dollars a year 31 years after his death. I was never lucky enough to see him live but from everything I read he could preform pretty darn well with all the drugs he was taking. Back in the day they ALL drank and took drugs....what band/artist didn't?

[horsephotographer]

OMG
I bet all the bands for next year are terrified about having the best performance or the forum will crucify them...

NOTTTTTT....
Whooooo Hoooooo:D
Where is my red cup?????
I love playing in the sand box......:cool:

[Kymery]

I dont think the horse is dead, many people not back to their right state of minds yet.

The more pages the better IF it is sent to the proper people. Again, the squeeky wheel gets the grease.

Now that would be something to watch country style.....:D

[BlkTib]

I don’t know what was up with Tim. We were close enough to see him without the aid of the jumbotron. He really (in my opinion) didn’t look as bad up close as he did on the screens. I don’t know why. I have been to enough concerts to know that artists will occasionally mess up. They come in late on a song, duplicate a verse or forget words. Tim did make some mistakes. He did seem low energy. I however have not seen him perform before so that is just an opinion. The wife saw him sucking on lemon slices. I could see his eyes were watering. He at one time almost stepped off the stage, but the front black skirting was blowing up and I don’t know if he could tell the difference between the stage and the skirting. I personally don’t want to make the assumption that he didn’t care or was under the influence of something. The only thing I could say is he didn’t look right and I don’t know why. I could probably give 3 or 4 scenarios each way that would explain it. I took his comment about catching a plane that he would rather be at stagecoach than on a plane. I even think that is what he said or at least that is what I remember. Either way everyone has an opinion. I just don’t know and unless or until it is explained to me by someone who does know I will just chalk it up to an off night.

[LadiesLoveCountryBoys]

and after this thread is sent along to whoever...like it would even end up in the right hands...and when other artists get wind of how bruttal StageCoach fans can be, let's just see who wants to play here again!

[sunkisses]

I emailed Goldenvoice who also suggested I contact his record label which is Sony BMG.

He at one time almost stepped off the stage, but the front black skirting was blowing up and I don’t know if he could tell the difference between the stage and the skirting. I personally don’t want to make the assumption that he didn’t care or was under the influence of something. The only thing I could say is he didn’t look right and I don’t know why. I could probably give 3 or 4 scenarios each way that would explain it. I took his comment about catching a plane that he would rather be at stagecoach than on a plane. I even think that is what he said or at least that is what I remember. Either way everyone has an opinion. I just don’t know and unless or until it is explained to me by someone who does know I will just chalk it up to an off night.

I like you more and more..
That black curtain blowing was a huge problem on stage...
Ya this photo he looks mighty fine to me...
Yet some of ya further back could of seen something we did not....:rolleyes:
I did have to leave after the forth song due to my eyes watering so bad from the dust on stage...
OMG I was looking like I was crying to..
Yeah and I also fell next to that dang stage camera and all...
Just a knuckle cut no camera damage.
Ya have no idea the crap coming off that stage once it started....:eek:

[horsephotographer]

and after this thread is sent along to whoever...like it would even end up in the right hands...and when other artists get wind of how bruttal StageCoach fans can be, let's just see who wants to play here again!
Love it....
Excactly...
But no worries we can just all party with the kitties in the campgrounds....:rolleyes:
They will bring the ipod....:D
Love the energy in here....
Hey your on your own on this one don't count me in on your crazziness....

[IheartMillerLite]

I think the right people just MAY read it. I work in the film industry and when we have a movie coming out, we have people scouring message boards just like this one to hear what the "people are saying." I don't think the fans' opinions, no matter how harsh, would hinder people from playing a future Stagecoach....just shows what areas to improve on.

[festivalfan]

we are NOT being brutal..read the thousands of threads with great comments, stories of terrific fun, great shows and performers. This is not a group of negative celebrity bashers at all. however, it is VERY clear something was wrong with Tim's performance. Too many people from different vantage points have made the SAME observation. He is a big musician, well known and has a huge fan base. He did let alot of people down, for what ever the reason. I do feel his "people" should know. But I take offense to the statement that Forum fans are negative or difficult to please.

[LadiesLoveCountryBoys]

White Flag...I surrender! I am gonna go get some work done and listen to my StageCoach artists to remind me what a great weekend I had, the highs and the lows...

[mk1644]

"Yes, say something. I have been to concerts that this has happened. He would of received our respect had he just said "hey guys, I know you came a long way, money, time, heat etc, but I was just dealt some news and I will do my best for you...I love you and thank you for coming!! you are the best" Then I would of wondered, by my heart would of went out to him and worried that everything is ok, with his wife, kids etc.

OR..."hey, sorry guys, I am Sh*&^ faced and cant remember my words, so here is what you get"


Totally agree with what you said. He just should have said what the hell was going on. I would be more forgiving of his lack of performance.

[meelees]

I went back and checked my video and minus about 2 that we didn't get he sang about 10 songs. By the time it was his turn maybe everyone was to drunk and tired to realize what was really going on LOL. Maybe if you just sleep on it tonight you might rethink what you have said. I think he did a great job and any Tim concert I've been to goes way to fast because I could stand there for hours and watch him perform, he could sing the yellow pages and I would stand there and watch ;), you all tell me what real fan wouldn't. Can't wait for the tour to start!!!! Look for my videos on youtube, he looked like he was having fun to me...
Also I would like to Thank Tim for HALFWAY TO HAZARD!! I'm just sorry I missed their performance Sunday.

Nope, not drunk (yes we were not drunk) very sober, waited and waited with open hearts for him and shocked when NO announcement, attitude, wouldnt keep eyes open etc..all has been said. I know when i LOVE a singer, I will back him..but I cant do it this time.

No need to rethink- been thinking about it since I left,,aHAHAHA.:D

[sunkisses]

I've had the most fun in the last week corresponding with all of you. Today the negativity is dragging me down. I miss the excitement of last week. Yes, I was disappointed in Tim..I LOVE his music but I'll survive. Think back to the beautiful surroundings as the sun set, the tents lit up in all of the beautiful colors and the awesome people who shared the weekend with you. Makes me thankful to be alive.

[Kymery]

Come on girlie...you know me now...I know this one is depressing, but the board is used for both ways, the rest are great posts...read on! Unless you computer automatically logs you to this posts...ahahahah jk

Seems they only see the post that back there opioin .Which there entitled to....
Yet forget the equallity for those that saw a differnt show without the red cup..... these kittys need a nap out of the sand box....

Take offense all ya want ...
It's my opinion and I'm sticken to it....
I can't believe after all the red cup stories ya sobered up for Tim....

Come On now.....
Crazy kitties...
Ya my daughter is a production manager in the film industry and my brother inlaw a entertainment law attorney for a large movie studio yada yda yda.......
Please search the boards for show ideas and how ya can change and tweak..

Ya really believe someone who is an actor and could never tour again like Garth and enjoy his kids and retire....really thinks all your comments are just sitting on his night stand...

Ok a few of ya need a kick in reality..
I really think this would be a great spin off on big brother....

By the way case ya did not notice the normal ones that think he was great are not wanting any part of the negative crowd...
You go girls....:D
MEWOOOOOOOOO:cool:

WAAAAAAAAAA....:D

P.S If ya really take any of this so far as to insult ya...
Then ya gotta put your shovels away step away from the box go back to work and stop having fun....:D

any of you who were there last year do you remember Sara Evans and how her eyes teared up and she had tears running down her face her whole performance do to the wind and dust and she put on a great show.

Wasn't she going thru a divorce????Might want to get the story straight...
My heart went out to her while she was on dancing with the stars...
Cowboys do cry....:cool:

[Lizzy]

I think it was becuse they were way to over the top alchol induced to stay..
Long three days:D
Fans or performers. Last year there were way more drunks, they ran out of alcohol the first day and everyone stayed until the end.

[meelees]

Check out the videos here. The true TIM fans will really enjoy these. There are quite a few. We missed like 2 or 3 songs and there is a clip of one but I love going back to see them. ENJOY!!!

If I remember right she was crying because she received such a warm welcome from all the fans. She had just come off of having to quit Dancing with Stars because of her husband and all the press and it was her first performance after all the negative media attention.

I don't remember that?
Oh well hard to think that far back..
How easily we all forget..
I had my beer must have been in another crazy location like the free section....lol:D

They were all over that this year on the radio talking about her divorce and how she was so over emotionally spent last year during stage coach..
Guess we should leave there personal lives alone...
So many are so interested in everyone Else's business.
I was kinda shocked they were brining it up on the radio the week before stagecoach Even though they were wishing her well..
Kinda sad...
I love her voice...:)

See and ya bash poor Tim....
Hey did she address the crowd to let them know she was sorry?:rolleyes:

[askworldtraveler]

Sarah put her heart and soul into her performance - and the fans gave back to her - one of the best shows ever in the 2 years of Stagecoach..... IMO ...

[Skipjack Ed]

I read the 05/06/08 O.C. Register review by (kelli Skye Fadroski).....and (Desert Jeff)

It said "McGraw had a big challange ahead of him-to close the show with a bang and the powerhouse delivered- a superb vocalist-he had joined the top of this fest's heap of graet performances"
Wow! I guess I missed that performance...

It also said that, "Trace Adkins seemed bored during his set and that the audience went nuts for his ridiculous hit Honky Tonk Badonkadonk"
Hmmmm! I guess I missed that one too.......

"Eagles/Fogerty were hard to top" - I thought that the Eagles and Mc Graw had maybe been suffering from the same illness, fat wallet syndrome, but she was right about Fogerty he was SPECTACULAR and hard to top...
I can't wait to see his next performance.

Gretchin Wilson, the reporter sure got this one right. John Rich from Big & Rich called her the "greatest country star of our generation"
I'm not sure if John Rich is 100% right but he's darn close-she really rocks.

No mention of Rascal Flats

This was our 2nd year to go and lord willing we'll be there next year!
along with Josh Turner, Leann Rimes, Reba, Garth, Faith, Willie (again), Strait (again) and Jim Reeves (if he's still around)

See ya'll next year!!!!!!

[tgcali]

Maybe that is why Tim look hammered, he had to drink his way thru Cowboy Troy, I know I did!! ahahahaha

I that that was disrepectfull to put Troy out there as an "opener". They were not the headliners.

Ok, I have to address this.

The whole thing with the Muzik Mafia is this: when they started out, just getting together as friends to jam and have fun because they weren't getting anywhere in Music City, they made a pact. If any of them ever made it big, they would reach back and bring their friends along with them.

That's what they're doing to this day. Gretchen made it BECAUSE of the Muzik Mafia. James Otto is coming out now BECAUSE of the Muzik Mafia.

When I saw the 1 1/2 hour time slot for Big & Rich, knowing that they were bringing Cowboy Troy and Two Foot Fred with them, I knew CBT would be performing a few songs. I can see why people would feel like they had an 'opener', and that maybe it was an ego trip, but for them they were just doing what the Mafia does. They bring their friends on stage with them. They share their time in the spotlight in order to give their friends exposure.

To this day, whenever they are in town on a Tuesday night, they get together and give a FREE Muzik Mafia show. As big as some of the Mafia members have become, they still go out and jam for the audience on Tuesday nights because making music is what they love to do.

I understand that alot of people don't care for Troy's "Hick Hop" and that's fine. We all have our preferences. It just seems to me that if you weren't already a fan of B&R you didn't know what to expect. As a Mafia Soldier I knew exactely what was going to happen. The crowd got into it, so it can't be all bad.

Commercial over.....:D

Tim needs to explain himself. The expectations for him are as high as they are because he has been so good for so long. An off night, really bad news, illness, intoxication, whatever it was it was not what Tim normally does. For that reason alone, I feel he needs to make some kind of statement.

[Glockgirl]

See and ya bash poor Tim....
Hey did she address the crowd to let them know she was sorry?:rolleyes:


There is NO way you can compare the heart & soul that Sarah poured on the crowd to the way Tim was having an "off day"..

I've from the beginning of this thread I've stated my disappointment in Tims behavior at Stagecoach & in Vegas, but I've also stated I"ve give him another shot. He has a fabulous voice and usually a great stage presence.. however...

no way can you compare the two..

I've been there, done that in journalism.. and sometimes.. things are pre written. It is my guess this is what happened here or the wrighter isn't a country music fan.

As for the Tim thing nice way of putting your feelings down...
Hats off to ya....:D

I've seen Sara twice...the first time was at Glenhelen Pavilion in Devore...she was horrible. The second time was last year at Stagecoach and she was wonderful. Musicians are just like you and me, some are good days and some are bad. I still love him even though I was disappointed this time.

[lina224]

I agree with you Ajax...high or drunk. My friend backstage said they kept taking cases of beer into his trailer...hmmmm he started 20 minutes late and ended ontime. I was bummed. The Eagles and Rascal Flatts both played past 11:15pm.

[koalababy]

They really are all humans and have good and bad days - I thought Tim was great!!! I understood what he was singing and I was dancing and I enjoyed - buck up folks - and let us all know when you become perfect!!!!!!! At least he was foul mouthed or anything like shelby lynne - sit back and enjoy!!

[abra]

i never wanna see shelby lynne again...

[Tropical-Cowgirl]

I was also bummed out with how TIm left us with the last act of the weekend. My family was in the front row and I was shocked that he ended the night without an oncore!
John Fogerty, Rascal Flats, Gretchen Wilson and Big and Rich and even Carrie Underwood Rocked the place, Incredible performances, dead on volcals! I have to say that the Eagles made me feel like I was in High School agian. Loved that fact that after all these years I still knew all the words to all of the songs they sang!
The other highlight of the weekend was the partys in Eldorado 1... Best weekend of my life, hands down.... Definetly going back next year!

I heard his hair and makeup guys were drinking beer like crazy....:eek:
Poor Tim....:(

[T.M.FREAK]

Tim's performance was weak at best. Saw him and Faith at staples last year and what a difference. You know what they say, when the cat's away, the mouse will play. I think maybe next year fewer performers with longer set times. Oh, hello to all! This was my first year and I am a new member here. Hope to make some new friends!

Welcome...
Yes...
I know boys are so silly when away from there wifes..
Thats why God made Adam and Eve.....
Looking forward to next year..
I also agree 100% on fewer acts more stage time...
It would save running back and forth to shoot so fast and only two songs come on give us other artist a chance to get a great creative shot....;)

[zoovyvor]

Well, I'm bummed that I didn't make it to Stagecoach this year, and I LIVE in California, but I went to see Tim six years running (yes, I had a bit of a thing for him what can I say), and I can tell you that he had his off and his on years. There were years when his opening act blew him away (like Faith one year and The Dixie Chicks), and there were years that he was one of the opening acts and blew the opening act away (George Strait). I know people who are involved in the music industry, and I have come to learn how tough it can be. It's not all glamour and fun and games. It can be down right brutal.

[misyg1]

cooter, can't you get your opinion across without using Christ's name in vain??

[dyfan]

Our weekend ended with Carrie Underwood. Very impressed with her performance. So we left feeling really good about the weekend.

I have seen Tim McGraw in concert and walked away thinking he is NOT a performer, singer yes, performer no.

We left following Carrie Underwood along with 10,000 others.

DWIGHT YOAKAM ROCKED!!!!! He was the reason we were there.

Maybe next time DWIGHT should be considered for the mane stage.

Now he is a singer and a performer.

DWIGHT ROCKS!!!!!

WoW!! Tim must have really had an off performance. When I went to see George Strait years ago, Tim Blew him away. He was so full of energy. Dwight on the other hand when I saw him at The Greek Theatre, just stood there and hardly spoke at all and really didn't connect with the audience. It was right after he finished filming "Panic Room" though, and one of his superfans in the pit with me told me that he got banged up during the filming. He surrounded himself with all these speakers like a blockade to ensure no one could get anywhere near him.

I think your replies have been interesting and a few greatly funny. I also get that you agree Tim was having a bad night... but are you arguing you think he was sober & just having a bad case of the wind in his eyes or are you telling the board to cut him slack on this one drunken performance?

[zoovyvor]

Was there a time limitation on Sunday night? You know, something to encourage people to get the hell out?
I would be really sad to find out that Tim has some type of substance abuse problem. The reason I had such a thing for him was because he seemed like a good overall package, good person, nice looking, good husband, good father, etc. I'm not dumb and no one has a perfectly charmed life. There are always things that go on behind closed doors, but you want to have something to hold onto in this sometimes bleak world. :(

I have to say my first time shooting the music industry I take my hats off to them it's more brutal then chasing baby foals and horses in feilds.....
The Photo Shoot part with all the different rules for each artist and camera's.
I must say I do not blame them I'm a artist with film and paint and you do have to be in the right mood or it all goes down hill and hard to hit it just on the money..
What a great group of people I must say..
I will do this again it was quiet the ride and loved the energy and chance to shoot something out of my norm.....
You are so right on with your comments...:D

I loved to catch that one time look I'm developing them today...WOW:cool:

I'm the last country girl to ever try and guess why anyone might be less then normal ...
I don't wake up to him every morning to know the difference...
Not that my husband is not as good looking....
Besdies...
I hate to argue ..
I'm a lover not a fighter....

I was too tired wind blow and allergy ridden to agree on anything....
After a good nights sleep I'm not sure what exactly happen???
Was I dreaming...
NOOOOOOO.
His photos are on my computer...
Dang he looked Hot.....
I will say in one shot he was laughing his head off almost crying it looked like..
Ummmmmm...
Thats it for now.
Gotta get back to photos..
I do like ya my friend....
Lets find each other next year...:D
Oh Taylor did have a scrape on her knee...
Oops did I say that..
Maybe she fell in the same place I took a digger....:D

That is what I was thinking the time was a issue...
Going over three night's in a row could be costly..
Both McGraw and Underwood asked for no photos first song and it took time to get that to happen ..
Ya know those overzealous paparazziiii...:eek:

OK, *that* was funny!

[horsephotographer]

:D
OK, *that* was funny!

Yes....lol
Laughter is the key to your soul....


Of course ya gotta have one first...


Thanks for the kudos my friend....:D
I'm just getting started.....

[Rose]

That is what I was thinking the time was a issue...
Going over three night's in a row could be costly..
Both McGraw and Underwood asked for no photos first song and it took time to get that to happen ..
Ya know those overzealous paparazziiii...:eek:

I know this is probably a dump question horse but why won't an artist let you take pictures during the first song but let you afterward?

Harry Connick Jr. was anal about no one being able to take pictures at his concert. He even was chastizing cell phone cameras.
It was funny at Stevie Wonder...the security people said you can now take pictures but you have to turn off your flashes...of course I couldn't resist to make the comment, "but how can Stevie tell?". Everyone around laughed.

[zoovyvor]

I have to say my first time shooting the music industry I take my hats off to them it's more brutal then chasing baby foals and horses in feilds.....
The Photo Shoot part with all the different rules for each artist and camera's.
I must say I do not blame them I'm a artist with film and paint and you do have to be in the right mood or it all goes down hill and hard to hit it just on the money..
What a great group of people I must say..
I will do this again it was quiet the ride and loved the energy and chance to shoot something out of my norm.....
You are so right on with your comments...:D

I loved to catch that one time look I'm developing them today...WOW:cool:

People look up and see what they think is 'the life', but it isn't all that, and it's hard to stay grounded. Many artists don't, and after they live in that world for a little while, they really don't know what it's like to live in the one we do. Tim had a bad night. Tim is getting older too (as we all are). Sometimes my back hurts getting up in the morning, and I don't have to run all over the stage, etc. There's a difference between having a bad night and downright sucking. He doesn't suck, but he does have bad nights. I would imagine if you were there for three days, you saw something in all that music that was available that made it worth the money.

[zoovyvor]

P.S. It had to SUCK to go on last on the last day. Both Carrie and Tim probably got the worst of the overdone, overbaked crowd. Also, from what I've witnessed, a number of people leave before the headline because they've had a little TOO much fun beforehand. It's weird. I almost would rather not headline and come somewhere in the middle when everyone is still in their right mind.

[Kymery]

Horse, with all due respect, I sometimes feel I am reading poetry went you write your line by line responses, then 5 in a row

I do get lost and I know you have good things to say, but in my opinion, I dont read them..too long and confusing. Dont hate me..just MY opinion. BUT I DO want to read them....help a girl out, the eyes are getting bad.

Yes...
So many people think it is so amazing to this kind of job or that.

The truth is it's just a job....
We all are on sometimes and others not so much...
People think because the pay there money you better be on the top that night...
The truth is were all human...:)
No way does Mr. McGraw suck..
I wish I had just a dime portion of his million dollar talent to sing and act..
After just three days of watching the music industry I have to take my hat off to all of you that make it happen..
So many quirky little things one each one..
Wow....

Great post though so others who were just there to party can maybe see a slice of the other side of the coin...:D

Hi dear...

I don't sit here all day like some and I have tons of work to do instead of making picture perfect post and frankly could care less...
So if I ramble on a bit to much for ya it's probly best ya skip my post....

I'm typing with one hand editing photos with another...
Then wandering how I can drive ya all crazy..
I'm sooooo glad one is working out perfect.....

Ok now gotta go to another long post to answer Rose..

Bye Bye..
Ohhhh by the way I never get ruffled or worried about boards....
Whooooo
Haaaaaa.....

Exactly Rose...
I tell ya The Eagles, Tim, Carrie, Rascal Flatt's all held up the show by having there people checking that everyone was not near photo lens of the stage or sitting in there seats before they started..A few others also...
Hard to get your position in photo line back after that..

It was not goldenvoice.....
I guess they may still get stage fright????

Funny I read a few reviews...maybe they will learn that the press they ticked off about waiting to shoot really showed them there disgust in the review..
Maybe they will learn something from that...

But little Carrie taken this on so early in her carrer...
Ohhhhh...
Well I know look at some in a little different light..
Not saying good or bad just different....

Sorry could not help myself had to lengthen the reply just to show my rebel side..Boooohahaaaa:D

[Kymery]

Ok Horse, I guess you misread my post. I said I wanted to read them, but very hard to do..oh well, your right, I will just pass over as many already do.

ps...I dont get pedicures, so dont know what Ty is.

Oh well, I tried, gave it my best. ANyway...

[sunkisses]

I get pedicures and now I'm a bad person for doing so? Eekl :(

[Kymery]

I am toooo ticklish

Your hubby must really love ya since he was rubbing your feet on one of your post....
Oh well.hopefully ya all get the humor....
If not your not the kind a fun kids I like to hang with..
Night Night...
Kitty's...:D

P.S I guess I better empty my in-box once more from all the replies from those that pass me over...lol

[bluesilv]

Tim sucked and everyone was pissed leaving the venue. He should be banned from performing at Stagecoach. Artists should feel privlelided to play at such an awesome venue. Screw him.

[Kymery]

That's funny considering you answer more threads than anybody.
Ahahaa..I noticed that, maybe she is trying to pass me up.

Hey, I noticed that a post is missing, I think from either ILML or Kitty, strange.

Horse, very defensive arent ya?

I keep hearing the DJ's talking about Tim and his performance, obviously this is wide spread that he sucked. So I am sure he knows he sucked, bet he is getting his arse chewed by Faith (probably likes that)

[zoovyvor]

I wouldn't quite say it's 'just a job'. What I do is 'just a job'. These guys are doing something that they love and are lucky to have the talent to do. They are just human though not machines. It's easy for us to be out in the audience to criticize, but it's not an easy job. I can understand the audience disappointment though.

What's the big deal with the photos? Never heard of such a thing or witnessed it. You'd think they'd be used to it.

[IheartMillerLite]

I get pedicures and now I'm a bad person for doing so? Eekl :(


I'm right there with you! I'm terribly ticklish but I still get them. But I still don't know what a Ty is either.

[IheartMillerLite]

That's funny considering you answer more threads than anybody.

Let's try this again....you took the words right out of my mouth Ajax!

[Kymery]

Let's try this again....you took the words right out of my mouth Ajax!

There ya go girl!!:D

[Kymery]

Being tickled by some foot fetish rubbing person at some parlor I may get a fungus from is not my fantasy..but the hubby rubbing my feet "because he loves me" is a way diff feeling...just for the record horse.

[IheartMillerLite]

If I had a man to rub my feet, I probably wouldn't go there either. haha. You're one of the lucky ones Kymery!

[Kymery]

Again: Be careful what you wish for (sorry honey...i still love you)

[horsephotographer]

LOL....
You kitties sure play nice together....
So interesting that ya get your little noses out of joint if your not in the middle of it...
Oh welll.....
Gotta go to work you all play nice now.....:D
Hopefully you can find more mindless things to say and get Tim's Numbers over 4000 veiws...
Good kitties....
LOL
P.S Please to save your own grace keep the feet to yourself it's a little toooo much information and I gotta go have lunch with a client....

[horsephotographer]

What's the big deal with the photos? Never heard of such a thing or witnessed it. You'd think they'd be used to it.

Exactly..
I was gone ask you the same question...
Do you have any idea why they would request such a thing?
I'm with ya on loving the type of art you do...
Some of us are more fortunate then others and can have are (Just a Job) be are true passions....:D
Yet others may feel put out by it ....
Oh well...
I loved Tim and will take that hottie anyway he does his Job....
I do feel bad for those who place there entire happiness or Joy of an event going full 100% or they feel ripped.
Man they must lead a life full of disappointment.
How sad not to have full joy in your heart daily...:(

[horsephotographer]

Ahahaa..I noticed that, maybe she is trying to pass me up.

Now that would cost me thousands of dollars of missed production to get to your over 1,000... posts my friend...
Do you work?
Oh well jealousy obviously sits tight with ya..
Silly Kitty...
Mewo....

[Cooter]

there is an ignore function available on the board, think i may start using it...now.

[Kymery]

Yep, work hard girl! But from home so I can BUY my tickets instead of asking for free ones like you did. Where is that ignore button Cooter?

[Cooter]

it's easy, just go into the "user cp", then scroll down and on the left of the screen there is a "buddy/ignore lists" link. click that and you can type a name into the ignore list section. then click "save list" and all posts from that user will be covered up from now on.

Toby is approximately July 12th and can't remember who but he has two opening bands with him.

[Kbug&Shanrock]

Toby is approximately July 12th and can't remember who but he has two opening bands with him.

I know one of the bands is supposed to be Montgomery Gentry they will also be at Pala Casino tomorrow night.

WTF?!?! Woah...what are you smokin horse? Are you really going there with the junior high gossip??? How about that so-called forum member that Kymery was so-called rude to speak for themselves if they had a problem? Probably cuz they don't exist. Is my guess. And for someone who's all preachy about being nice and positive you are really throwing out some negative, ugly energy here! Come on now! :)

And Kymery has plenty of friends who have her back! :D :D Get in the trrruuuccckkk!!!

[sunflowergrl24]

I think everyone was disappointed with his performance. He definately had something going on allergies, lit whatever. He barely had his eyes open the whole performance and had NO energy. Not what you expect from the biggest star in country music and the #1 headliner.

[Ajax]

Amen.

[Kymery]

Hi everyone, this is Doug, Kymery's husband typing now.

I want to say this for the record: When Kymery told me that 70+ people confirmed to come to brunch I was shocked and concerned that she opened our doors as well as her trust in people she never met, but that is her.

I dont really like all this posting but this is her outlet and fun. She works hard, and if this is what she likes, then ok, but, what I am saying is that she came to me and said that some girl said that some people said she was rude, then I had to say something.

People started coming by our camp the minute we showed up, introducing themselves to her and my wife was so greatful to have them do this, take their time out to come say hi. She was so nice to everyone, I saw her smile ALL weekend, and that made me very happy. She and Nancy cooked a great burritto meal that everyone seemed to enjoy. I ended up really having a great time also, after being so worried meeting strangers from on line.

Kymery was invited to many camps to visit, and received texts and phone calls all weekend to meet up with people, if she was so rude, then why were they contacting her (personally I was a bit jealous)

Now to hear that anyone was being treated rude, well, i dont believe that for a minute. IF by fact there is someone, please call her on it. Maybe she did not realize, she was so busy making sure everyone was happy while there, she is that way, never wants anyone to be bored, unhappy, or unwelcome, she invited everyone into our rig up thru Monday morning to just sit and chat.

Now, Horse, you are being very mean and unkind, I just don't get it. What did she do to you? She showed me the post about how your posts look like poetry and that she did want to read them, and that you have one post after another, and how there were others that agreed, but why did you only pick on her? it is if you are jealous, and maybe you should be. Then you comment on my love for her, by rubbing her feet, does your husband do that for you? I love her to death and she means the world to me, and it bothers me that someone talks mean about her.

You should of PM'd her personally, but now she shows me posts where you are calling people Kitties, KooKoo's, insecure, children etc name after name after name. You are the pot calling the kettle black,, look in the mirror. I just dont understand how you have a heart to attack and insult but in many of your posts you brag how you always look at the world in a happy way, explain that?

She NEVER called you a name until you attacked her, horsemouth, sorry, but I had to laugh.

Go back and read her original post, she never attacked you

Sorry to ramble, but I had to stand up and say something.

By the way, to everyone who came over, I also had so much fun, I am usually the type to say "lets have our own weekend, no one else" but this was actually fun and new for me, so thank you! You have shed light on new fun in my life and hopefully we can do it again next year.

Doug

[Ajax]

I love it when a man stands by and stands up for his women!

[Ajax]

Not that she needed it, but it's still nice.

[IheartMillerLite]

What wonderful words Doug!! I enjoyed my time with you and Kymery. The brunch was great and the company was even better. Thanks for opening up your RV to us. It made my weekend an enjoyable one.

P.S. Thank you for using "you are" and "your" correctly.

[festivalfan]

Doug....thank you for the great post.. and for your heartfelt thoughts. I had a great time planning the brunch with Kymery and meeting everyone. We met some great people, and I'm sure long time friendships have begun BECAUSE of the brunch and from you and Kymery welcoming us to your camp. Thank you. Nancy
