    August 18, 2014, Issue 409 Garth’s Coming: Now What? If anything is known about Garth Brooks, it’s that he does things big. The same has been true so far of his touring come- back, which started in Chicago with an on-sale that was unlike anything CBS Radio VP/Country Programming and WUSN/Chi- cago PD Jeff Kapugi had ever seen. “One of the best days I have had as a program director in this crazy business” is how he later described it. Given that Garth last toured more than a decade ago, there a lot of other programmers who aren’t quite sure what to expect because they were either in another format or, *cough*, were too young. With that Jeff Kapugi in mind, Country Aircheck examined how Garth’s tour has played out at radio so far. Guitars And Tiki Bars: WQIK/Jacksonville’s Cindy Spicer and The Lead-Up: Garth’s 10 dates in Chicago are a good Columbia’s RJ Meacham take in Kenny Chesney’s Flora-Bama place to start. Though a fan dubbed “Andy from Atlanta” got to Jama Saturday (8/16), with Chesney and David Lee Murphy break the tour-open news on the afternoon of July 14, Kapugi and onstage behind them. ‘USN Dir./Promotions Pam Hamil got a heads up from the pro- moter early that morning. “Obviously we needed to wait for Garth Chesney’s First Jama to call Andy before we could flip the switch and let the confetti fly,” They came to see Kenny Chesney and his only 2014 concert Kapugi says.

  • Lauren Akins Is So Ready for Fall — and Even Thomas Rhett Can't Stop Her
    (9.4.19) - https://www.countryliving.com/life/entertainment/a28689463/lauren-akins-thomas- rhett-pregnancy-kids-fall-interview/ Lauren Akins Is So Ready for Fall — and Even Thomas Rhett Can't Stop Her Fall started for Lauren Akins in August. At that point, she'd had enough of the heat and was ready to channel a little autumn in her Nashville home. She enlisted Willa Gray, 3, and Ada James, 2—her kids with husband Thomas Rhett Akins—to help bake a Halloween snack. All were feeling festive as they decorated ghosts and black cat cookies—until they were caught in the midst of their chocolate-covered fever. “Thomas Rhett walked in and he was like, ‘You’ve got to be kidding me. Lauren, it is August,’” she says, laughing. “I said, ‘Honey, I know. But we needed a new craft, so we’re giving fall a good kickoff here at the Akins household.'” Lauren's passion for the season made her the obvious choice to host a Halloween party for Country Living's October issue. She proudly wore a DIY scarecrow costume as she sipped apple cider and played candy corn ring toss with Willa Gray and Ada James, who dressed as an ear of corn and an apple bushel. “Gosh, I just about died when I saw them,” she says. “They’re the cutest things.” Their fun-filled afternoon is only a peek inside the idyllic family that's taken over country music. Lauren and Thomas Rhett are the picture of an ideal southern couple down to the last detail, including Lauren's habit of referring to both her husband and their kids by their first and middle names.
