Steve Miller, Kenny Chesney Tape "Crossroads"
A "Space Cowboy" and a country star are making appearances "CMT Crossroads" this season. Rocker Steve Miller teamed up with country's Kenny Chesney in Nashville this week to tape an installment of the series. Miller's music is already familiar to country fans. Numerous country stars have covered Miller's "The Joker" in concert including Tim McGraw, Keith Urban, and even Chesney. When Miller and Chesney performed the song together for the taping, it was hit with the crowd. The duo sang a few of Kenny's songs, including "Living In Fast Forward" and "I Go Back." The focus, however, was on Miller's music with the two singing "Fly Like an Eagle," "Rockin' Me Baby," and "Jet Airliner." Chesney and Miller took the stage at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium for the show. It was the first time "Crossroads" was taped at the venue. While no air date is set yet, the Chesney-Miller episode of "CMT Crossroads" is expected to debut on the network in July.
Miller and Chesney's time together began well before the cameras started rolling, and continued long after the cameras stopped. Earlier in the day Steve gave Kenny a custom guitar, and they resolved to write a song together using it. They also extending their day beyond the taping. After leaving the Ryman they went next door to Tootsie's Orchid Lounge. They began their spontaneous performance at the club just before 11:00 p.m., and continued past midnight. |
