Sugarland Fans Share a Common Thread

Posted: November 17th, 2008 at 6:34 pm  |  By: Alison Bonaguro  

SugarlandStarting this Thursday, you can show Sugarland some love and help out a few good causes. This Common Thread musical event was the brainchild of Jennifer Nettles, and will showcase all kinds of music, yoga, eco-consciousness and charity. Joining Sugarland at this week's three concerts in three cities (Beaver Creek and Aspen, Colo., and Santa Fe, N.M.) will be Emily Saliers of the Indigo Girls and Amos Lee. Each artist has chosen a charity to receive their proceeds. So Nettles' will go to the American Cancer Society, and Sugarland partner Kristian Bush's will benefit the American Liver Foundation. Nettles' vision is to inspire fans to go out in their own communities and create some changes. "I do believe that one action can cause a ripple and make a difference," she says. There are still a handful of good seats available.

    I am keeping count of all the good blogs you start for other artist? And never a good one for Carrie?

    Why don’t you go listen to Amos Lee instead? Learn something.

    Amos Lee is great! I just bought the new DVD put out by New West Records. It is a remix of an Austin City Limits show that Amos and his band did and it is fantastic. Treat yourself to this DVD from Amazon for only around $13. You won’t regret it. Awesome!

    Hi Mia, I agree, Amos is great, and the ACL show kicked A! That would be a good DVD to have.

    Nothing seems to be easier than seeing someone whom you can help but not helping.
    I suggest we start giving it a try. Give love to the ones that need it.
    God will appreciate it.

    Terminator franchise is what got me interested in the movies in the first place. The first was a suspenseful cyberpunk thriller, and the second became my favorite movie of all time. The third fell short of intelligence but still solid nonetheless, and the TV series was a good addition to the franchise. Nearing the end of May, the fourth and latest film addition of the beloved sci-fi franchise will open, and viewers are in for a sheer summer spectacle.
