You might also look for Nashville Star tour tickets on eBay. They are sometimes cheaper and it’s a great place to look for Nashville Star shows that sell out.

There’s been a lot of Swingtown controversy going around for good reason. One thing that isn’t controversial is the incredible 70’s music from the show. Below you’ll find a listing of all the 70’s music I could find from the show. I’ll post the rest of the music I find at this link: 70’s Swingtown music.

The most amazing part of this list of 70’s music from Swingtown is that almost every one of the songs comes from an “Ultimate Collection” or “Legendary Collection” or “70’s Greatest Hits” cd. Shows you how much more great 70s music there is out there. Just click on the iTunes links to purchase the 70s music.
