from Nashville hotspots like the Hee
Haw TV set and RCA Recording
Studios, where Elvis Presley
recorded many of his early hits. This

concert promotion and covering the
local music scene. His first project
was the Creekers Ball in the 1980's,
an annual Nashville music event
featuring dozens of southern rock
acts. In 2003, Pat got the idea for
Tennessee Concerts as an outlet to
document, preserve and showcase
his decades of covering the
Nashville music scene, online to a
worldwide audience. More recently
Pat is the promoter of Nashville’s
longest running rock & roll musicians
jam, The Play It Again Jam. Players

events include musicians that have
worked with Taylor Swift, Toby
Keith, The Four Tops, Kiss, Robert
Palmer, Beatlemania, Pacific Gas &

Skynyrd, Stonewall Jackson, Hank
Williams Jr, Crystal Gayle, Jerry
Reed, Peter Frampton, The Platters,
Percy Sledge, Peter Noone,
Blackfoot, Molly Hatchet, Brenda
Lee, plus several members from the
original Charlie Daniels Band. Pat
has a vision and commitment to
helping bands fine tune their
presentation and hopefully rewarded
for their efforts in a tough economic
time, where promotion is key and
crucial to take your band to the next
level. Pat pledges to make your
experience with this opportunity a
fair and pleasant one.

Pat's great website, is a treasure-trove of memorabilia dating back
almost fifty years. He has been around Nashville a long time and his
website features the Tennessee appearances of music greats such
as Elvis, The Beatles, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan, Stevie
Wonder and Southern all-stars such as Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton,
Charlie Daniels, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Marshall Tucker and many more.
Success has not spoiled Pat Adams, who is still a laid back,
soft-spoken country gentleman. When Pat is filming at the Play It
Again Jam (which Tennessee Concerts has been sponsoring since
it's beginnings), he is nearly invisible. That is a great trick for any
videographer who can pull it off, and he succeeds in doing it as well
as anyone I've ever seen. Many of his videos are up on YouTube,
and you can easily tell that the artists are not distracted by the camera.
Lately, Pat and Tennessee Concerts have been featuring the Gary
Allen Sonic Bids Song Of The Month winners. Gary's song evaluation
and competition has been running since 2007, and winners,
runners-up and honorable mentions are posted on the site. (Gary is a
life-long Nashville resident, who has played with such musical greats
as Charlie Daniels, JJ Cale and Opry star Stonewall Jackson) The
competition is not without rewards, and winners not only receive prizes,
but their songs are passed on to other music industry people.
The song evaluation is really only one of a number of collaborations
between Pat Adams and Gary Allen.
With an online store (offering everything from hats and caps to little
Tennessee Concerts shirts for your dog), photos, articles, memorabilia
dating back to the 1960's, videos, a good-sized links page and a large
database containing information on the musical stars of today and
yesterday, Tennessee Concerts appears to be a kind of 'one-stop
shopping' site for music lovers in Nashville and everywhere else.

By Kenny Utterback

The "Play It Again Jam", Nashville's longest
running rock and roll jam, went on hiatus for
almost a year, starting at the end of 2007.
Having lost their lease, the promoters of the jam
(Gary Allen, former drummer from Charlie
Daniels' band) and Pat Adams (of Tennessee
Concerts.com) had to search for a new venue
for the bi-monthly event. For a short period, the
jam regulars were topping the bill for Music City
Nights, while it was showcasing at the old
Mocambo Club location on 4th Avenue.
When the venue took a sharp turn toward mostly
presenting upcoming country music artists, the
rock and roll jam didn't seem like a good fit
anymore, to the jam's promoters. So, the search
resumed for a better match.
It now appears that a great little club on 2nd
Avenue South called Windows Off The
Cumberland, which already deals in rock and
roll, has partnered with the Play It Again Jam
promotional team to host the jam two nights a
month (the old 'Jam' format) starting in March.
Jams have already been held at the club, in
December and January, with another scheduled
on Sunday, February 22nd. Photos and videos of
these sessions can be seen on the Tennessee
Concerts website. To learn more about the
history of the jam, or to view the latest videos
and photographs, go to
