I know..seems kinda crazy to be driving into a hurricane when we should stay home and batten down the hatches but we can't miss an opportunity to get a fix of good ass kickin country music :D
We will have to leave really early Sunday morning to try and beat the heavy rains.

As of yesterday, I could still get my hands on a ticket for Saturday, but my broken car shot that idea out of the water.

Nope. All in the open except the boxes.

Hmmm, Zac Brown is playing at Gillette with Kenny Chesney today & 8/27. Jimmy Buffett postpones his Va. show. Probably not hanging out there until show time.
Suppose he might take 95 N and head to Foxboro?
Surprise guest?
Just a thought.

Maybe but sorta doubt it. He said he was going surfing today when he called in to Radio Marg. :D

Of course it was a GREAT SHOW!!!!! Especially by the ZBB :D

SPOILER ALERT...I will mention some of the songs that were sung by all three artists, so if you're going to a future show and want to be surprised, DONT READ ANY FURTHER!!!!

The entire show was wonderful. It started out with Billy Currington, whom I thought I had never heard of. Turned out I knew a few of his songs that I absolutely LOVE! (my radio station doesn't always say the artists names either before or after each song, plus I'm working while listening so don't catch everything either). He played 10 - 12 songs, some that I remember are Love Done Gone, All Day Long, People are Crazy, and Must Be Doing Something Right, along with quite a few other good ones......Now I need to start buying his albums, and get me an up front & personal seat with him. :wink: [smilie=battingeyes.gif] He played for about an hour I'd say.

Then came ZBB....Fabulous!!!!! Started with As She's Walking Away, then Toes and many others. He dedicated Highway 20 to a Major Scott (missed the last name because we couldn't hear all the talking at the show, and if you didn't know the song that was being sung, it wasn't completely audible), who was supposed to have been at the show, but unfortunately lost his life in Afghanistan 2 weeks ago :cry: They did their Free into Van's Into the Mystic, and THEN into America the Beautiful,...the crowd was going wild! and then I believe he ended with Chicken Fried. He did about 16 - 18 songs, performed for about 1 1/2 hours.

Kenny made his grand entrance on his swing thing above the crowd. Of course he played Summertime, Coastal,You and Tequila Make me Crazy and Boston, among many others. I think he played about 20 or so songs, about 2 hours worth. I like some of Kenny's stuff, not all of it though I may or may not go see him again.

Kenny then had Billy join him and I think they just did 1 song together...d*m if I can remember what it was.

Then he had Zac come out and I think they did about 3 or 4 songs together including Knee Deep, and if I remember correctly, they did the Steve Miller Band's "Joker" into Bob Marley's Three Little Birds. Really, really good. And at some point earlier in the show, I think another Marley song was played...memory is kinda foggy on that :-?

At the end of the show (Kenny was walking around giving autographs) Zac's band and Kenny's band jammed like there was no tomorrow, quite impressive to say the least.

The Big Heads (Kitchin Brothers) were in the audience as Zac and Kenny, they made it onto the big screen 3 times. The last time being when Kenny was given (or had asked for) the masks.

Well there you have it...IF YOU HAVE THE CHANCE GOOOOOOOOOOO. I really don't think you'd be disappointed. :D
