Bon Jovi To Rock Country Music Awards

26/10/2005ReutersPaul Simon and Jon Bon Jovi will add some local flavor to the 39th annual Country Music Association (CMA) Awards, which will take place for the first time in the Big Apple on November 15 at Madison Square Garden.

Simon will perform a song with Willie Nelson, and the pair will also present the song of the year award. Reprising a duet they performed recently on CMT Crossroads, Bon Jovi and Sugarland singer Jennifer Nettles will deliver 'Who Says You Can't Go Home'.

The event, broadcast live on CBS, will also include an appearance by actor James Gandolfini of HBO's The Sopranos.

Other performers newly added to the CMA Awards include Alison Krauss + Union Station featuring Jerry Douglas, Miranda Lambert and Julie Roberts. They join a lineup that already boasts hosts Brooks & Dunn, Dierks Bentley, Big & Rich, Kenny Chesney, Sara Evans, Faith Hill, Alan Jackson, Martina McBride, Brad Paisley, Rascal Flatts, George Strait, Keith Urban, Gretchen Wilson and Lee Ann Womack.

I apologise if this has already been announced here Im finding it difficult to keep up with all the messages due to my schedule.

Usually have to wait to see the country music awards here in England it can be delayed by a week or to, its nearly always shown on BBC 2 , so probably end of Nov. Will look out for UK tv dates.
