I Met Blake Shelton Through CMT Music Pass

Blake SheltonI did not know what to expect. The excitement and anticipation just kept building up, and it felt like this was the longest two weeks of my life! I could not wait to meet Blake Shelton. Once getting the tickets, my husband and I enjoyed some time at the Championship Bull Riding event that was going on before Blake's show. We had never been to an event like that before, and well, that was an experience all on its own. We then left the arena and waited by the merchant table (Hi Matt!) to be escorted to the meet-and-greet room.

Once in the room, I could feel my stomach turn into a big knot of nerves. About 10 minutes later out walks Blake Shelton, and oh my goodness!!! I could not believe this was really happening. I was actually going to meet him! We were the first in line to meet the big guy. I brought two things for him to sign and he was kind enough to actually sign both. Wow! We then were able to take one photo, and as you can see I was so elated! He then thanked us both for coming and said "Enjoy the show." It was a very quick five minute meet-and-greet, but I guess that's how that goes, and there were about 20 other people waiting to meet him as well. My husband and I then went into this room where the show was being held.

Our meet and greet passes served as VIP passes, which allowed us to enjoy Blake's show on the side of the stage, almost like our very own backstage performance. This whole experience was so amazing and I will never forget it. Thank you CMT and Blake Shelton and all of the people that we met for such an incredible experience!

    Who cares. I am so over CMT and all country artists. CMT has left all the fans in the cold with no message boards to go to. You can’t even log on anymore.

    Bring our message boards back. Cannot get into this fancy ones. The system is not working for all of us.

    Darlene, Sam, Carolsue, Calvin, Twangtown, …what problems are you having? The first time I saw the new look, my name/password was gone. But I just registered again as a new member and it worked. I have foxfire so it saved my password so everytime I log onto CMT, I’m logged on as me. I click on message boards and see every message board there is for I go to Carrie UNDERWOOD’s board which is near the end. I don’t know why you are having problems. I haven’t had any problems since I re-registered that first day. Just wish I could get to my favorite message board faster.

    I do NOT like the changes in format AT ALL, and frankly, CMT “music” sucks because there is hardly ANY of it. I prefer GAC over CMT any day and may even cancel my TV pkg.

    This blog is about Lauren getting to meet Blake so why all the posts about the message boards???
    Lauren, I’m glad you got to have this great and fun experience. I’ve seen Blake in concert and he puts on a great show.

    Thank you CMT for CMT music pass. I would love to win
    a VIP pass for 2. To meet Trace Adkins or another country
    star would be a once in a life time opportunity!
    Watching from the side of the stage would be something I
    would love to experience.

    I live in the Pittsburgh PA area we have several concerts
    coming. I would love to meet Miranda Lambert, I have been a fan of her for years!
    I am a proud Trace Adkins fan club member.
