Tailgates & Tanlines...

Now, I know not everyone is into country music, but well I listen to a lot of music, so of course country falls in there somewhere. I decided to catch one of the “Tailgates & Tanlines” shows. I knew maybe 6 of Luke Bryan’s songs, so didn’t expect to enjoy it as much as I did, but honestly his show was extremely entertaining.
It wasn’t just his music, he threw some ‘Baby Got Back’ to stretch our hips as he said to get ready for ‘Country Girl Shake it For Me’, a little ‘Enter Sandman’ by Metallica (I only added the artist name for that one since I was completely perturbed that a younger friend with me had no idea who they were.) Not that I listened to a large amount of Metallica, or really any growing up. But geezus I knew who they were and that song. I call that a MUSIC FOUL! … From there he did that one Adele song, and did pretty well with the high notes, he threw ‘Bad Romance’ in there among some others that are eluding me at the moment.
Over all Luke was very engaging and was on his game musically. Seriously even if you only know a handful of his songs, it’s worth the price of admission. The show was fantastic!
Now I can’t over look the openers. They keep all of us “early birds” entertained before the main act. I’ve been known to see a show just for the opener. (not. naming. names.)
Cason and the Bad Habits was first on deck and man did she have powerful voice. Michael Ray… he reminded me a bit of Jason Aldean voice wise, but it was still very much his own. He had some really great songs. I have a good feeling about him. (just throwing it out there) I did get the chance to meet him at his merch booth. Very polite. (The first time I didn’t want to rip someone’s head off for calling me ma’am. HA!) A review of his album is on my agenda. (Don’t wanna slam my one reader with too much country at one time. lol)
Tom Jackson, Josh Thompson and Lee Brice… All excellent. Need something new? Check em out.

Wow I guess I just completed my first actual… review I suppose you could call it. It did flow easier than I expected. I could get used to this… hopefully you won’t be bored. ;)

Now which band is on deck…. Hmmmm…

May music keep your heart beating... Like it does mine.
