Congrats to Justin Moore, who just became a daddy for the first time.  He and his wife scheduled a C-section so that he could be there for the birth of his daughter, and everything went perfectly.  Little Ella Kole weighed 6 pounds, 8 ounces, and everyone is doing fine.  Now Justin can go back to opening for Brad Paisley.

Good news item #2 comes from Brad Paisley…he’s just scored his 12th #1 song in a row with “American Saturday Night.”  Four more in a row and he’ll tie the record set by hall-of-famer Sonny James with 16.

All Justin Moore had to do was mention country outlaw David Allen Coe in a song, and next thing you know he’s performing with him!  Justin is a huge fan of Coe, so he made sure to give him a shout-out in his #1 song “Small Town USA.”  David heard the song, called Justin, and invited him to open for him at a show next month!  So If I were Justin, I’d start thinking about other people or things I could mention in my songs, just to see if they’d show up as well.
