Weatherford resident, country radio legend Kingsley partnering with VNUE on Country Radio Seminar live recordings

Weatherford resident and country music radio legend Bob Kingsley is partnering with VNUE Inc. (OTCQB: VNUE) to produce limited-edition “instant live” recordings of Kingsley’s Acoustic Alley event at this year’s Country Radio Seminar.

This limited edition recording is provided compliments of Bob Kingsley’s Country Top 40 and Band Against Cancer with Sarah Cannon to celebrate the 50th anniversary of CRS.

“I have been fortunate enough to witness countless live concerts throughout my career, and nothing can replace those memories,” said Bob Kingsley, a Radio Hall of Fame member and the longtime hose of Bob Kingsley’s Country Top 40. “But thanks to Set.fm, we can offer something better – the ability for attendees to relive this night for years to come.”

These high-quality audio recordings will be made available exclusively to CRS attendees via custom-designed collectible laminates provided to them with their seminar registration. Each laminate will have a scratch-off code, where fans may then utilize VNUE’s set.fm iOS app to download the content directly to their mobile device. They may also download the content via the set.fm website.
