Dads are the best: They'll take you fishing, teach you important life lessons ... and occasionally act pretty goofy.

This year's event at the Ryman was sold out.

Darius Rucker and Zac Brown Band make a great combo.

Darius Rucker is bringing a weekend of music to his hometown this fall.

Pot may still be illegal in much of the U.S., but it's referenced in plenty of country songs.

He's criss-crossing the U.S. and Canada this summer, with an impressive roster of openers.

A few candidates seem likely while one singer feels like an exciting long shot.
