I saw a lot of shows this summer and skipped a few (Kansas, Billy Joel, Chvrches, Metallica) that I really wanted to go to but from Marilyn Manson and Erasure to David Allan Coe and 30 Seconds to Mars with many in between - diamond Rio might have been the best. They stood on stage and said we went to a concert once of Jackson Browne and he didn't play all of his hits, in fact he played 1. We left disappointed. We aren't going to do that to you. They hit every song they needed to except for one I wanted that so badly that's obscure and two more just as hidden. (Finish what we started, I know how the river feels, and she misses him on Sunday the most) Sawyer brown, great band I want to see. This night won't last forever takes me back to a dirt track in Iowa. Nitty gritty dirt band, that song is so good but so overplayed by douchebags it's lost a touch. Even douchebag luke Bryant played it. I'll submit a better nitty gritty dirt band song. And Alabama, they're #2 on my list to see behind George. Now this is some good up tempo country: hkKnXgO5r94 And for gugs... 1

Expand I know what you're saying, since Chris' tracks aren't particularly unique and he's a bore on stage, but his voice is phenomenal. I do wonder why the machine picked him to be their token "good ol' boy", as they've typically wanted nothing to do with that style of country. We saw him at Red Rocks last year and it was a top 3 show in my book.

I saw Luke Bryant and Brett Eldridge a few years ago and they did a great show with lots of energy with the worst music possible. I'd much prefer that vs great music and a ***** show. Chicago was the worst concert I saw this year besides sturgill Simpson. I qualify Simpson more as an audible abortion on stage than a concert. But, i can't imagine a bad performance on stage with good music being that worthwhile unless you're one of those folks who finds the exact place to sit to get the best audio quality at a live event. I just can't imagine how he'd be good in concert
BillsFanNC Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 Or more towards the country southern rock vibe..

I'm having a hard time thinking of any artist I've seen live that came close to his pure vocal chops, although James Taylor was close. He's pretty chill live, doesn't move around much, doesn't seem to get fired up, but that may be just be his personality. Red Rocks is as good as it gets acoustically, which plays a factor, but my wife saw him in Nashville 2 months later and said it was pretty damn good too

PetermansRedemption Posted October 25, 2018 Posted October 25, 2018 Pretty much any 90’s country hit is gold. Garth Brooks is the best complete artist I have ever seen. No one will ever entertain in concert the way Garth has/ still is. Also, Luke Combs has not put out a song I haven’t liked. On 10/24/2018 at 8:43 PM, TheElectricCompany said: Red Rocks.

He is top 5 of guys I want to see, despite seeing him at a free concert 2 years ago. George is number 1. 2 little Texas number 2
