Jason Aldean Was Celebrated At CRS 2026 In Nashville…Which Included A Poem By Blake Shelton And A Florida Georgia Line Reunion

Hillbilly LiveLeave a Comment on Jason Aldean Was Celebrated At CRS 2026 In Nashville…Which Included A Poem By Blake Shelton And A Florida Georgia Line Reunion

Country Radio Seminar is about making memories and creating moments like this.

BBR Music Group just delivered a handful of memories at CRS 2026. It all started with a Blake Shelton poem commemorating Aldean’s 31 #1 hits. And it was a very special poem that was heartfelt.


Then Jason’s favorite band, Alabama, took the stage.

Then, it was Travis Tritt showed up for a cover of “Night Train.”

And then the big surprise happened. BK and T-HUBB, showed up on stage together, to perform the #1 song they pinned for Jason, “You Make It Easy,” sharing the same stage together for the first time in 4 plus years. It was the reunion we all wanted to see happen too.

And finally, Mr. 31 himself, Jason Aldean, took to the stage to perform “How Far Does A Goodbye Go.”

During a week where many artists and events shine, Jon Loba’s BBR/BMG just pulled off something memorable, wildly entertaining, innovative, even impossible. Most importantly of all, it created some lasting memories that we’ll be talking about foraging lot of CRS’ to come.

Megan Moroney Says She Doesn’t Hide Anything in Her Music

Hillbilly LiveLeave a Comment on Megan Moroney Says She Doesn’t Hide Anything in Her Music

Megan Moroney says she doesn’t hide anything in her music.  Is this her confirming “Who Hurt You?” is about Riley Green?

She said, “being sly about it has just gotten me uncomfortable in interviews. So I’m like, if you listen to the song and you still have questions, I don’t think you listened to the songs…

I’m just going to say exactly how I feel and how it went from my point of view.”

And if Megan ever writes about you, she doesn’t care if you try to get revenge. She pointed out how, “that’s none of my business. Free will is one hell of a job. You can do whatever you’d like to. I said my piece, and I’ve got nothing else to say.”

Speaking of revenge, Megan shared a story on “The Drew Barrymore Show”.  She and an ex broke up before an album came out , so she had stamps of it put all over downtown Nashville where he worked, so he never forgets her.

STUPID HILLBILLY NEWS: 38 Buc-ee’s Received An “F” Rating From The Better Business Bureau

Hillbilly LiveLeave a Comment on STUPID HILLBILLY NEWS: 38 Buc-ee’s Received An “F” Rating From The Better Business Bureau


This news breaks my Texas heart, because seeing that beaver in lights is like seeing a beacon in the night.

38 Buc-ee’s locations in Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, Tennessee and Texas to name a few have received an “F” rating on the Better Business Bureau website. It’s because they failed to respond to 88 customer complaints.

The oldest unanswered complaint is from March of 2023, and the most recent is from last month. They include issues with the car wash, broken or ineffective merchandise, and incorrect card charges.

Buc‑ee’s has publicly stated that it does not respond to complaints forwarded by the Better Business Bureau, according to a BBB statement sent to USA TODAY on March 13. “That is the company’s choice, and the current rating reflects that decision not to participate in the complaint resolution process.”

Luckily this has nothing to with how clean the stores are and the abundance of good food. A I’m mainly talking about the brisket.

STUPID HILLBILLY NEWS: It’s National Sloppy Joe Day…Do You Prefer Yours “Open” or “Closed”?

Hillbilly LiveLeave a Comment on STUPID HILLBILLY NEWS: It’s National Sloppy Joe Day…Do You Prefer Yours “Open” or “Closed”?

If you’re looking for an easy dinner tonight, you’re in luck, because it’s National Sloppy Joe Day.

The origin of the Sloppy Joe isn’t 100% clear. One claim says it started in Havana, Cuba in 1920, when a bartender named José “Sloppy Joe” Otero created it as a simple sandwich version of a local dish called “ropa vieja,” which features shredded beef, tomato sauce, and spices. And it’s a damn fine delicious meal too. And thank you, José.

Now whether that’s where it really came from or not, it became increasingly popular in the 1960s…and in 1969, Hunt’s introduced “Manwich,” which made Sloppy Joes way more convenient to make. I had plenty of it growing up…and proudly.

By the way, a poll online asked, “how do you like your Sloppy Joes, open or closed?”  84% of people say they like it “closed,” or with two pieces of bread, like normal. The other 16% say they prefer it as an open-faced sandwich.

LANCO’s Tour Bus Caught Fire And Was Completely Destroyed Near Des Moines, Iowa

Hillbilly LiveLeave a Comment on LANCO’s Tour Bus Caught Fire And Was Completely Destroyed Near Des Moines, Iowa

This is a scary ordeal and luckily everyone is okay.

On Sunday night, March 15, 2026, the country music group LANCO‘s tour bus caught fire and was completely destroyed near Des Moines, Iowa. The band members and crew luckily escaped injury because they had decided to stay in a hotel due to a winter storm rather than sleep on the bus.

The band and crew was traveling from a show in Des Moines toward Nashville when they decided to pull over due to the weather. The blaze broke out early Monday morning while only the bus driver was onboard and thank God he managed to escape with only minor injuries.

While the equipment trailer was fortunately spared, the bus itself was a total loss, and several instruments and personal belongings inside were also destroyed. Overall everyone was okay.

LANCO’s frontman, Brandon Lancaster, shared a video of the charred remains of their on Instagram, stating that “God was watching over us” and that the situation could have been much worse if they had been sleeping inside at the time.

Ella Langley Ties With Taylor Swift For This Billboard Record

Hillbilly LiveLeave a Comment on Ella Langley Ties With Taylor Swift For This Billboard Record

I don’t think there’s any slowing this woman down right now and this song is life changing for her.

Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” tops Billboard’s Hot 100 chart for a third week. She ties with Taylor Swift for a unique record too, which is the most weeks at #1 on the Hot 100 for a song by a woman that also hit #1 on the Hot Country Songs chart.

For Taylor, it was “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” in 2012. Taylor didn’t officially leave country until 2014…and I still remember that like it was yesterday too.

Morgan Wallen is getting his own SiriusXM channel on April 7th. And if you’re not a subscriber, it’ll be available for free until May 6th. 

Morgan says he’s personally curating the music too, “listeners can expect to hear a lot of things that I listen to on a day-to-day basis, which is probably a lot different than what most people expect.”

There will also be three special programs each week.  There’s “Still the Problem Tour Segments” and “808 to 865”, which will be Morgan’s favorite hip-hop tracks and influences every Saturday night. And the “One Track at a Time”, which will be his favorite new music.
