Jimmy Wayne: Three Defining Events

Jimmy Wayne took to his blog today to share with his fans, big moments in his career. Way to go Jimmy!

Three defining events have taken place in my career. These events are turning points, and/or milestones, or winks from the old man above. However, just to simply spell it out, these events changed my life! They are as follows: (a) getting signed to The Valory Music Company, (b) finding “Do You Believe Me Now”, and for the third one I must intro it properly. Here goes….

(c) Today was a very big day! Brad Paisley invited me to join him on his tour beginning in June-Oct. Dierks Bently will also be with us! This invite came to me through my managers Jenny Bohler and Mike Kraski. Jenny said “Jimmy, let me start by saying “Brad”, then Mike said “Paisley”. I must have jumped flat-footed five feet off the floor! This was the most incredible news! I’d been hoping for this day to come for a very long time! Thanks Brad!

Dierks and I as well as Brad go a long way back. I met Dierks at a cookout at a friends house when I first moved to Nashville almost eleven years ago. He’s always been very cool to me. I’m looking forward to the reunion!

I hope to see each and every one of you at a show! You guys helped make this happen by giving me more than just “fanship”. You guys have been like family! All the years of support, the miles traveled, show after show regardless of me not being on top of the charts. You guys showed what a true fan really is by showing up anyway! I’ll never forget that!!!

I plan to take this thing to another level. All aboard, we’re going somewhere!!
