The countdown is on for Brad Paisley. It’s 21 days until he co-hosts the 44th annual Country Music Association Awards. And it’s 12 days until the release of his two-disc Hits Alive album.

The track list was unveiled Tuesday, and it includes 25 performances total — 21 different songs, some of them appearing in both studio and in-concert versions. And “Online” appears twice; it’s at the close of the studio disc and an “Online” reprise is the finale of the live disc.

When Brad Paisley turned up the swaggering chords on “Alcohol” just after midnight, he brought out Darius Rucker, Justin Moore and Chuck Wicks for an early-Monday finale to a CMA Music Festival that set some records for the downtown event.

"Here's the fine staff and myself in the ER of M U S C hospital," says Brad Paisley on his Twitter page after taking a fall during his Charleston, SC show on Saturday, March 6, 2010. Photo courtesy of twitter.com/paisleyofficial.

Brad Paisley sure knows how to make an exit. Last night he wrapped up his American Saturday Night Tour in Charleston, SC at the Charleston Coliseum. On the final note of his encore song, “Alcohol,” Brad took a spill onstage, quickly bouncing back up, finishing the show and thanking the audience, like a pro.

After leaving the stage, he went to the local hospital via ambulance to be checked out. Thankfully, Brad was still in once piece — just badly bruised. Brad’s already back in Nashville today. He posted the picture above on his Twitter page, twitter.com/paisleyofficial.

Of course, there’s already a video of Brad’s fall on YouTube:
