The Colgate Country Showdown begins each Spring with over 450 local talent contests sponsored by country
music radio stations throughout the US. Winners advance to their respective State competitions held at
leading fairs and expositions. Acts then compete for a $1,000 prize, the State Title and the opportunity
to advance to one of five Regional Finals. It's the last step before the prestigious National Final, which
is televised to a national audience from one of country music's most exciting venues, the historic Ryman
Auditorium in Nashville, TN. Audiences from coast-to-coast cheer on the Regional Winners, as they compete
for the Grand Prize of $100,000 and the National Title. A uniform judging system is used at all levels of
competition to ensure fairness.

White Oak Casino is proud to present John Anderson for a FREE Sunday concert.
It's been over a quarter century since John Anderson changed country music the first
time. That was back in the '80s when that jaw-dropping country voice combined with
huge hits like "Wild And Blue" and "Swingin'" to pave the way for the decade's neo-
traditional movement. In the early '90s, he did it again with Seminole Wind, a bona
fide classic that reignited his career and helped fan the flames of the coming country
explosion with hits like "Straight Tequila Night" and the album's unforgettable title
track. Well, it's 2009 and Anderson is back with Bigger Hands, an album that instantly
reestablishes this country music icon as a contemporary musical force to be reckoned
with. In other words, Bigger Hands is the real deal - undiluted, no-holds barred, full-on John Anderson.
