And again, about the Country Thunder 2010 Festival in Florence, Arizona, Dallas Williamson writes: In years past, the festival has gained recognition for bringing some of the hottest stars in country music together for its four-day spectacle of brawny music and energetic performances. Country Thunder 2010 is no exception. With such artists as Willie Nelson, Keith Urban, Miranda Lambert, Kid Rock and even Kevin Costner highlighting the concert series, well, let’s just say there’s bound to be more than a little dust kicked up in the process, at the following link:

About the Country Rockfest 2010 in Halifax, Nova Scotia, August 6 and 7, Rick Howe writes: Watch for news later this week on a big rock concert for the Halifax Common this summer. Harold MacKay of Power Promotions will likely make an announcement Thursday. He's hinting it's another big act. There's been speculation the Black Eyed Peas are coming. I'm not sure if they're up there with the likes of the Rolling Stones or McCartney. MacKay's already lined up a two day country concert on the Common featuring Allan Jackson and other acts including actor turned singer Kevin Costner, at the following link:
