Chris Brown just sent out the first clue to his Road to Exclusive Scavenger Hunt! To win a chance to meet him in New York, you have to collect 9 game pieces - each of these pieces can be unlocked by a special code that will reveal two clue paths to the next code. Here’s where you can register to play.

And here’s the first code which he sent only to his SayNow fans.

You might have to scour the streets to find the other codes…and I won’t be posting anymore here so you should call his number to get updates if you want to meet him. (or if you want to win any of the other cool prizes)

Oh no! We just heard from Edison Glass and apparently someone broke into their van and stole all the money they’ve made so far on their tour with Blindside, as well as their laptops and other personal belongings. They’re out about $8,000 and their insurance is only covering $250. They also had to pay to fix the van window :-(

We love these guys, so if you can, please help them by making a donation through Paypal to joshua@edisonglass.com or mailing a check to

I’m sure they’d be grateful! (btw, I took the photo above from their MySpace page…it has nothing to do with this unfortunate event…although I imagine that’s what they might have looked like when they got to their van :-(

Here’s the winner…

This feature just went live on our home page last week. You can now listen to public voice messages that come in as they come in AND see where they’re coming from.

Just press the play button where it says “Incoming Voice Messages” in the sidebar on our home page to listen. I usually have it playing during the day while I’m working to give me a sense of what people are saying and what they care about.

It’s usually interesting, sometimes hilarious, and every so often, heartbreaking. Here are a few messages I listened to today.

(more…)

Country + Hip Hop = Hick Hop. I didn’t know there was such a thing, but that’s what Cowboy Troy calls his music. Growing up in Texas, he listened to a lot of country and rock, but was also a fan of rap and hip hop so the fusion made sense to him. The catchy Hick Chick Dance Mix is the first single off his new album Black in the Saddle and you can check out the video below

Cowboy Troy is also the co-host (with Jewel) of Nashville Star. He recently signed up with us and has been sending messages back to fans who call and leave him messages!
