Long Haul Tour

ATLANTA BLOG:
The Long Haul Tour featuring Brooks and Dunn, Sugarland and Jack Ingram was not to be missed.
It may have been a little chilly for an outdoor concert but Jack Ingram warmed you right up with his unique show. What a great guy. You will not find many people more appreciative of his fans. When he finished his awesome hour on stage he invited anyone who wanted to meet him to come to the left of the stage and "I will sign whatever you want me to". I haven't seen a bunch of women move that fast since they announced 50% off all Women's Apparel at Dillard's. His record rep said he may be releasing a remake of "Lips of an Angel" as his next single. He performed it at the concert and it was excellent.

Sugarland-WOW!!! Jennifer Nettles is not only gorgeous but has one of the most powerful voices in country music. She, Christian and the whole crew are true talent. Every song they perform is full of life and meaning to them and to their fans. For those of you who don't know they started off as an Atlanta Bar Band. What a long way they have come and they will only be going up from here. You have to get their new album Enjoy the Ride-and that is exactly what they are doing.
Brooks and Dunn-Well what can you say they are Brooks and Dunn-the Rolling Stones of the Country Music world. When they performed Neon Moon they had a huge background with a full moon which set as the song ended-very cool. I am really hoping that the fan who got his Cell Phone confiscated by Kix Brooks got it back. The man was calling his daughter Meredith when Kix was talking and Kix took his cell and asked who it was the gentleman told him his daughter Meredith. Kix picked up the phone and said "Meredith" paused "No it's not Dad. It's Kix Brooks. Dad is sitting with some lady in a dog collar and drinking a 40 ounce beer. Does he do things like that often?"
After a little more conversation he said "I don't care what kind of minutes Dad has but Meredith you get to listen to the whole show now-Enjoy." He sat Meredith in a place of honor on stage and continued on with the show. So if you get the chance to get front row at a Brooks and Dunn concert by all means go and enjoy it but you may want to leave the cell phone out of Kix line of sight.
Ronnie Dunn is a true performer and leaves no doubt about why they are so huge and have won so many awards in their career.
