Funniest CMA Moment

First off, Mr. CMA, you need to fire the sound man. Or at least the audio producer. Or at least whoever it was that thought it was a good idea to run the vocals stright off the board into my TV with no effects or ambient sound. Sometime I couldn't even hear the bands. The only time it sounded really good was when someone was singing to tracks (Faith, Sara). I guess you can't really count on your drummer memorizing those tracks exactly for national TV, now can you?

Anyway, forget about Faith's "What?" heard 'round the world. The funniest moment of the night was when Ronnie Dunn was introducing Montgomery Gentry to present an award, and Ronnie said, obviously off script, "here they are, loaded for bear, Montgomery Gentry!"

The look on Troy Gentry's face as he muttered under his breath and shot ol' Ronnie some icy sidelong glances while walking out to the microphone was priceless. He remained flustered through the whole thing.

You know what, there Mr. Big Game Hunter? You need to be publicly humiliated over that little "incident" as often as possible for the rest of your life.
