Carrie Underwood's “Carnival Ride Tour”
Continues With 51-City Fall Run Starting September 23
Fall Shows Will Feature Special Guest Little Big Town
NASHVILLE - (Sept. 22, 2008) - Carrie Underwood’s highly successful album CARNIVAL RIDE was recently nominated as CMA Album of The Year, and her headline tour of the same name, the “Carnival Ride Tour,” has shared tremendous success as well since launching earlier this year. Over 700,000 fans have attended the tour so far, with 51 more shows planned this fall in the U.S. and Canada. By the end of the year, Underwood will have performed 137 live shows in 2008, in addition to her many Opry and TV performances. The fall leg of the tour, sponsored by vitaminwater®, will begin tomorrow in Cleveland, Ohio and will feature special guest Little Big Town.
Underwood has received strong critical acclaim for her live performances on the “Carnival Ride Tour.” The Kansas City Star claimed her performance “requires some Herculean vocals, and she absolutely smoked it.” The Pittsburgh Post Gazette said, “Underwood brought pure star power and those golden pipes” to their arena earlier this summer, and the Grand Rapids Press stated “Underwood is truly remarkable, quite possible the most gifted vocalist working in popular music. Beyond her immense vocal talent, the singer–songwriter exhibits a poise and confidence that belies her young age.”
Underwood was recently nominated for two 2008 CMA awards, Female Vocalist of The Year, a title she currently holds for 2006 & 2007, and Album of The Year for CARNIVAL RIDE. In May, she was inducted as the newest member of the Grand Ole Opry and named Top Female Vocalist at the 2008 Academy of Country Music Awards for the second consecutive time. Her current album CARNIVAL RIDE, which contains the current smash “Just A Dream” as well as the #1 co-written smash hits “So Small,” “All-American Girl” and “Last Name.” Since her debut in 2005, Underwood’s two albums have sold nearly 10 million copies and she is the all-time U.S. top-selling American Idol contestant.

Carrie...Please come to Calgary, Alberta!
Carrie... thousands of us are dying to see you live in concert in Calgary, Alberta! I love your latest album!! It has so many great songs! If you come, you will definitely feel loved here!!
too loud but i still love you
i saw you with little big town in cleveland, ohio on 9.23.08 and i thought that you were too loud. you have an awesome voice that projects extremely well and i thought your mix was too loud. little big town's volume mix was perfect. i still thought that you were great and i did not realize that you have so many great songs and i especially like your all american girl video and i think you are one of the prettiest girls i've ever seen. i was also impressed when you let a chord ring on your guitar near the end of a song. i still think you're the greatest.
CARRIE IS........
SIMPLY STUNNING!
CARRIE IS REMARKABLE!
Carrie is not only beautiful but intelligent as well. Imagine graduating from college magna cum laude. I think she has all the qualities a guy could want. And one thing I like about her is that she is not boasful. Unlike some of the contestants of american idol season 5 wherein they said they are better than Carrie. But where are they now? You cant even see their names in the news. Keep up the good work Carrie! Hope you will win in the upcoming CMA awards. GOD bless!
Your Sites Are Tight!!!
Hey Carrie site moderators!!! The new Fan Club site is AWESOME!!! Its SOOO CUTE!!!! You should give this site the new look too for the fall Carnival Ride Tour! I'm sure everyone here would love it too!!! You guys nailed that one when you made the FC site!! I can't get over how cute it is, although its kind of confusing to get around =/
PS I ♥ Carrie!!! She's the best! ♥

Just A Dream
Very touching and beautiful song. The first time I heard it in the car I was crying my eyes out thinking about my wife. She was a veteran who passed away last year. Every word was as if it were coming out of me. It is still as if it is Just A Dream. Thank you for this great recording.
Carrie, Please Meet My 7 Year Old Daughter!!
My daughter Madison is 7 years old, and just LOVES you, she always has me play your CD in the car......I am taking her to your concert in Syracuse NY in October.....Is there any way possible for her to meet you in person??? If you can make my little girls dream come true I will be ever so grateful!!
Thank You in Advance!!!

Lyrics?
Hey can you tell me the line about the flowers toward the beginning of the song? I've looked it up, but every interpretation I've heard sounds wrong to me... I would be lovely if you could let me know. Thank you.

Country Thunder Texas ripped me off
Hey Carrie wish I could have seen you perform in Texas this Memorial Day Weekend!! Unfortunately Country Thunder Texas cancelled and they still have yet to pay me back. I hope you never perform at any of their concerts again. They still have shows in Arizona and Wisconsin but they closed the Texas venue and have not refunded any money. I am out $500.00.
Carrie You Rock
I Was at the oct 4th show in Detroit and it was the best concert i've ever been to by far!!!!!!
Carrie you are an amazing entertainer. I loved the way you brought that little girl up on stage during all american girl to sing with you. I definitely will come again the next time you're in town. keep up the good work.
Love,
Hanley
Thank You Carrie
Thank you so much of making my niece's night wonderful! I can not thank you and your staff for all that you did for her. She has not stopped talking about how she got to sing with her "best friend" Carrie. There is not enough words to say thank you. You truly are a wonderful person. Thank you so much and God Bless you!
Kim (Hayley's Aunt)
WOW
I just wanna say that the concert tonight was just awesome. I truly enjoyed it. It was my first time seeing you live and it was worth it. Hopefully next time I can take my daughter with (she is 10) she loves your songs, and so do I. Keep up the great singing!!

Syracuse, NY 2008
Hello, our daughter Mariah is six years old and we live in Homer, NY. We all attended the 2008 Syracuse, NY concert and it was the best ever. It was made even more fun when Carrie's staff selected Mariah to go onstage and sing All American Girl with her. It made our daughters century. We want to thank Carrie for making it so much fun for all of us. We got some really nice pictures and Mariah has become quite the little overnight celebrity in town here. Thank you again to all of Carrie's staff and especially Carrie herself. The t-shirt you gave Mariah is now in a glass collection for safekeeping where she can see it and remember that night.

Syracuse War Memorial Concert
I just wanted to say that Carrie Underwood put on a GREAT show. My 6 year old granddaughter LOVES Carrie's music. She has been singing "Jesus Take the Wheel" from the time it was released. She sings all Carrie's songs word for word with her. Carrie touched her hand during the Syracuse show and my granddaughter is in heaven. I just think that was a great thing to do, so many of the celebrities don't pay any attention to fans. This was a big night for Kaia, it was her first concert and the tickets have been bought for a long time (the day they went on sale). She has been waiting patiently for months and that just made the whole night!
Thanks Carrie for making a little girl's night!
Concert Dream
Well at first was not going to attend Carrie's concert in Arizona cuz of the lack of funds. See I was sending my dearest friend and her beautiful daughters, but now, with the help of some overtime at work I will be able to go with them. Its going to be a bit of a struggle cuz I'm here in California and have to come back home after the show, but just to see my friend and the girls will be all worth it. Its been a while since I have seen them and going to this concert will make it very special for everyone. Thank you Carrie in advance cuz I know you will make all of us happy and most important my friend and her daughtes. They mean everything to me.. Thank you and we will see you there!!!
