Brad Paisley

I saw Brad Paisley for the first time in May 2013 at PNC Arts Center. I had wanted to see him for quite some time and was thrilled when I found out he was kicking off the Country Megaticket Series at PNC. The concert was fantastic. We had lower right side orchestra seating.We were towards the back of the section but the stage had a semi-circle area in the middle of the orchestra section so Brad Paisley was actually quite a bit closer to us throughout the concert. He is a great entertainer and a fantastic singer. I loved that he mixed his older hits with his new album, especially when he played "He Didn't Have To Be," a song he wrote for his song co-writer and the guy's stepson and the first song that turned me onto Brad Paisley back in the 90s. There was also a point in the concert where he gifted one of his guitars to a young fan in front of the stage. And later he traveled up through the crowd to play behind us for the people out on the lawn. He was so involved with the audience and so appreciative, it was one of the best concerts I have ever seen and certainly an amazing first time seeing him. And his performance of "Remind Me" with Carrie Underwood's hologram was really neat to see too. I highly recommend seeing Brad Paisley in concert! You will not be disappointed!

Brothers Osborne always delivers. Each song is so Americana and iconic , each in it.s own right. Would like to see more photos, though. I've seen them twice this year. Off to buy my copy of Pawn Shop.

Ricky Lee Skaggs…bluegrass roots, southern charm and artistic style. The singer, producer and multi-instrumentalist has been making music for much longer than I’ve even been alive, and has received accolade and recognition of the highest honor, and has worked with people across a number of genres. He is well respected as an artist by many of his fans, as well as his peers.
When he takes the stage, he is extremely polite, and most definitely brings the Southern charm wherever he goes. He gets onto stage, mandolin wrapped around him ready for what’s to come, and a giant smile on his face, both of which remain with him until the end of the show. As he plays, you can see how happy it makes him, no matter where he could have been at any given moment. In between songs he is always having a conversation with the audience, not just talking at them. He will always say thank you, and for almost every song he introduced the name of it, as well as a little about the process behind writing it. Whether you like bluegrass or not, watching his live set is a learning experience, both musically and of the human condition.

Steve Wariner is a guy I'll drive for miles to see. I have loved his music for many many years. Last night, at the Redneck Country Club in Stafford, TX,he came back for several substantial encores after what was a long show to begin with. FIVE STARS!
