    Ok, I'll ask it.... CMT & TBT
    jade says (07 Aug '10)

    I love KR, love TBT. why didn't KR give props to TBT when introducing everyone else after that opening? I'm sure there were time restraints and giving everyone's name would have been tough, but just naming the band? what's up with that? Lots of musicians/performers sorta minimize their bands, or don't have a regular band and hire studio musicians or whatever. but KR has always made a point about having TBT... so why didn't he thank them or introduce them? I just thought it was curious, and from what I've seen here and there others noticed it too. I honestly don't know a whole lot about the music business, so I'm curious if there are any other educated opinions out there on this? what is standard for this kind of thing?

    Please know that I'm saying this with all due respect... and <3 for TBT. :-)

Yeah I agree, the opening song when he gives credit to all the artist's on stage was the perfect time for him to acknowledge them! I wouldn't say it's a time restraint thing either, what it is, I'm not exactly sure, but it was undeserving that's for sure!! I've seen him give Kudo's to TBT endless times, why not this time??

Pretty shitty if ya ask me

You either share the spotlight with those who stand behind or you don't. Says more about him than anything. I respect a great live band. It's rare. And it sucks that Bob does it, along with everyone who does it in the industry. The paid help is not a concept to embrace. Bites you in the ass everytime.

Calmed him down???????

Agree Jade

My only guess was none of the other performers thanked their bands but because he introduced others on the stage it seemed approprite that he would mention his band
