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, The competition is not without rewards, and winners not only
receive prizes, but their songs are passed on to other music industry
people.
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.
