Johnny Reid performing at the Stage on Broadway

But this is the Country crooner that brought the house down. Johnny Reid is his name. The women went wild then melted when this fellow took the stage. Johnny Reid is a Canadian sensation.

While we were not familiar with Johnny the past two years, Reid’s 2007 sophomore Reid we were in the minority. It seemed like the rest of the crowd knew him. His hit song, Kicking Stones, has been kickin’ ass in Canada. Certified Platinum in Canada, it has garnered the Scottish Born, Nashville based Canadian singer/songwriter CCMA’s for Top-Selling Canadian Recording and Top Male Artist in 2008.

Johnny Reid is an undeniably bright star in the Canadian Country Music arena, where he has two top ten radio singles Love Sweet Love, and Kickin’ Stones, and the runaway hit, “Darlin’”, which propelled him to the number one spot on CMT last year.

Besides being able to sing he took the women's breath away.

Joyce enjoying the entertainment at The Stage on Broadway

This is my "Honky Tonk Angel" enjoying herself to the maximum. That look is telling me that she is not going to want to go home until the sun comes up. VBG

There is a country song about "No Such Thing as Too Much Fun". Well this look on Joyce's face at The Stage on Broadway tells me that she is pretty close to finding out if that is true. VBG

Something tells me folks ain't supposed to have this much fun on a week night.

But that is what CMA is all about. AMEN!
