Kenney Chesney

Ok, another break in the never ending update for Jazzfest. Next up is pictures for Day Two and than finally Day Three. But before that last night I went to the Kenny Chesney concert. Uncle Cracker and Gretchen Wilson opened for him. I wasn't sure if I would like it or not, but it actually was a good show. I knew I would like Gretchen Wilson and I did. She was great. She did a few new songs coming from her new cd, they were all really good. One of them is called "California Girls" and is nothing like the Beach Boys' song. She also did a cover of a Heart song and Led Zepplin's Rock and Roll. I might have been more surprised by the inclusion of that song but LeAnn Rimes did the same Zepplin song in her show. But it was still pretty cool. Than came the main even and I have to say I was pleasently surprised. Kenny Chesney put on a good show. I'm not a big fan of country music. He did a duet with Gretchen Wilson on John Mellencamp's Hurts So Good. He also did two songs with Uncle Cracker, one which was Kid Rock's Cowboy. He also did Van Morrison later. He played for over two hours, really putting on a good show. So not a bad night. I would have posted last night but by the time I got home it was so late and I had to get up at five this morning, so I ended up just going to bed.
