Congrats, you’ve made it this far into the year, and it’s CMA Music Festival week at that.  Good job not throwing in the towel before now.

The CMA Music Festival opens this Thursday, June 5th and a record number of 68 companies will be marketing to this event; everyone from People magazine to Coca-Cola, so come prepared with the only answer you need, “No.”

Known in latter years as Fan Fair, the CMA Festival has turned into quite the attractive monster, attracting folks the likes of American Idol winner Carrie Underwood.  This year is expected to top all records, so you might wanna finally check it out.
