And It Goes Like This....

On April 23rd, 2014, Thomas Rhett played to a sold out crowd at the Rodeo Club in San Jose, CA. Tickets sold out for this show in 3 hours the day they went on sale so I knew that Thomas was in for a fantastic show. I went to see him last year at the Rodeo Club before he had his hits to radio like "It Goes Like This" and "Get Me Some Of That". It was really amazing to see the difference in the crowd and the evolution of his music.

Before Thomas took the stage, his opening act Chris Cavanaugh fired up the audience. It was great to see what we could of his set since we headed backstage to meet Thomas. Hope we can see Chris again soon!

Thomas took the stage shortly afterwards and got the audience dancing and singing along to his songs. He started off his set with a song called "All American Middle Class White Boy".


Thomas played a lot of his songs off his debut album that came out last year called "It Goes Like This". Of course the crowd went wild when he played the title track off the album. I also really enjoy a song called "Make Me Wanna" and here is a small video of him singing it here:


Thomas also played a few new songs that I have never heard before. I think he is in the process of making his next album and the new songs he played are called "T-Shirt", "Automatic" (he made sure to let us know that it was not like Miranda Lambert's current single Automatic), and a song called "America". I really enjoyed all three of those songs and his song "America" probably got the best response from the audience of them all. I am really looking forward to seeing what he has in store for his next album! 

Overall it was an amazing show and can't wait to see Thomas again!

Time to get "Redneck Crazy"!

We saw Leah Turner and Tyler Farr last night at the Rodeo Club in San Jose, CA! It was another amazing sold out show with another two artists that I've never seen. Leah Turner was up first and got the crowd going. I was very excited to see Leah because of her song "Take The Keys". She also has quite a few other good ones like "Beat Up Bronco" and probably her feistiest one called "My Finger". She has an undeniably amazing stage presence along with an amazing tone in her voice. She is definitely one of the newer country artists to watch! Her current radio single is called "Pull Me Back".

Next up was the "Redneck Crazy" man himself, Tyler Farr! At this time I have to mention that my boyfriend Dave and I chose to hang out at the back of the club so I did not get any videos of Tyler but some pictures. I'm pretty short so tall people prevailed! Anyways, Tyler played a good mix of songs from his debut album along with some covers like "Folsom Prison Blues" by Johnny Cash. Maybe it was because we were in the back of the club but the show really did not take momentum until he sang his two singles to country radio, "Whiskey In My Water" and "Redneck Crazy". The crowd exploded singing along to those two songs and it was amazing. I think Tyler has a great career ahead of him and looking forward to what will come next!
