Soul To Soul

Patrick, my brother, works for MAC presents in Nashville-see link. Among other things, his company sets up concerts and arranges sponsors for concert tours. Patrick has done some pretty cool things. He books Vanderbilt's concerts every year in Nashville. Here's a picture of him with Coolio before a concert. Patrick had to pick him up from the airport and drive him to Target to get some t-shirts before the show.


This summer he spent on a bus touring with Tim McGraw and Faith Hill because his company arranged for JEEP to sponsor their tour. He was in charge of setting up all the JEEP stuff at each venue, including Tim and Faith's personal JEEP, and arranging the pre-show concert they did for a small group of VIPs. In Atlanta, he was able to get my family in for the VIP pre-show concert with Tim and Faith. It was so much fun! We were within a couple feet from them! Here are some pictures. The tour is now up for an award by Billboard for their sponsorship deal. Here's a link to go on and vote. http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/news/marketing_promo.jsp
