The heat did have an effect on some people down front.

"How smart is it bring the “Burnin' it Down” tour to Phoenix when it's 105 and 150 degrees onstage," he said noting the Sternos-on-steroids fire blasters he had. Aldean manages this delicate balance with every song so it doesn't feel like he’s going down a country-music checklist and adding a verse because he forgot to mention girls with painted-on jeans.Īldean thought they had played it smart coming a little later in the year but didn't expect another hot streak weather-wise. In a lyric like "I'm hittin' easy street in mud tires," you feel the escapism and the reason why you need escape. Backlit with fire both filmed and fueled, he bounded onstage with the unapologetic "Hicktown." Yeah, we got another party anthem but we also got its underbelly seeing the "neighbor's butt crack" as he's "nailing down shingles" while his wife is "smokin' Pall Mall's and watching Laura Ingalls." The song gives enough details to let you know that he knows the rich people are doing it up better somewhere else and that this party is only being brought to you by beer because there was enough money left over to put some gas in the car.Įven the encore, "Dirt Road Anthem," one of the few country-rap songs that doesn't sound like an egregious mistake, has enough details of the downtrodden to make you think Aldean has at least read “The Grapes of Wrath” and has known some grit in his life. That should be a “Jeopardy” category.Īll thoughts of Swindell were soon forgotten (except when he was brought back onstage later) once Aldean took the stage, looking like the last man standing on Lynyrd Skynyrd's “Street Survivors” album cover. But there's gotta be more to country than Things You Can Do in A Silverado. "I'm raising my glass to those savin' our ass overseas," he sang. But it was "You Ain't Worth the Whiskey," where he managed to rag on an ex and salute the troops at the same time.

After extolling the virtues of all-day drinking turning into all-night binging while eyeing girls who can get guys with six packs instead of guys who can just about manage 12-ounce curls, Swindell exclaims, "Hey guys these girls just may be out of our league so we might as well keep on drinking!" Why is this man still smiling so much at this glum face-up? George Jones could've squeezed four tearjerking masterpieces out of that one line of exposition.ġ5 best Jason Aldean singles ever (so far anyway)Īnd just when you thought Swindell was going to launch into something other than a tailgate invite, a song where love exists outside of the bed of a truck and one mile of off-road, he launched into a sensitive breakup song.

He started out writing these bro anthems for the likes of Luke Bryan, Thomas Rhett and Florida Georgia Line before becoming a guy who just sings his own bro anthems, most of which were heard on Saturday, such as "Hey Y'all," "This Is How We Roll" and "Brought to You By Beer." That last one came complete with a yakety coda from Swindell. This song is sung by Party Tyme Karaoke.Which brings us to grinning galoot opener Cole Swindell, a name that recalls some moustache twirling villain trying to extricate the deed to your ranch but actually turns out to be this aw-shuckster no party animal worth his spitting tobacco could ever take offense to.
