Kenny Books 14 Stadium Gigs
Keywords:
1/14/2008 With sell-out dates at six NFL Stadiums during his Flip Flop Summer tour, Kenny Chesney had to up the ante for his upcoming 2008 Poets & Pirates tour. So, the reigning ACM and CMA Entertainer of the Year has announced that he’s including 14 stadiums – and maybe more – on the upcoming trek. “It’s amazing to me how much intimacy you can have in a place that big,” says Kenny. “But there’s something in those big shows you can’t get anywhere else: a whole other kind of energy. You feel those fans all the way to the top, and there’s nothing like it. And they come to have a big day with us. You can hear it when they sing ‘Back Where I Come From’ or ‘Anything But Mine.’ It’s a blast, and I can’t wait.” Kenny’s pal, superstar Keith Urban, will be on hand for selected shows, as will the dynamic duos of Brooks & Dunn and Big & Rich, rocker Sammy Hagar, and newcomer Luke Bryan. LeAnn Rimes and Gary Allan are set to appear at all of the announced dates.
