I saw Toby Keith a few weeks ago, and he did not do “Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue” and “American Soldier” until the encore. Some in attendance must have seen the same show before, because when they left the stage and all was dark, chants of “USA, USA” started around. Later I read a review from another venue, and it sounded like it was the same series of songs and encoure. Regardless, it was pretty cool and I was glad I went. Trace Adkins also performed.
Im going to see my very favorite tomorrow night - Alan Jackson, or as I call him “My Fiance’”.....got tickets comped from a band member as it’s a free show for the recovery of the Gulf and they only had 6,000 tickets to give away, which were gone in less then 90 minutes.....and I hope he does several encores. I love him. I’ve seen George Strait many times at the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo as well as Toby Keith and love them both!
