TIME: 7.30PM Rascal Flatts
Jay, Joe Don and Gary see their latest album as the perfect representation of all the elements that go into the music that has given them so much success.
Since their musical debut in 2000, Rascal Flatts has over 22.5 million albums sold and over 28 million digital downloads and delivered 15 #1 singles to the top of the charts. Rascal Flatts is the most awarded Country group of the past decade, earning over 40 trophies from the ACAs, ACMs, AMAs, CMAs, People's Choice Awards and more. As one of the hottest-selling acts on tour in any genre, they’ve sold over 7 million concert tickets, and counting.
"It's one of our proudest moments in the world, being part of the Opry family," says Gary. "We've been part of a lot of great things, but this is joining a wonderful family that will live on forever. It's mind-blowing." It's a fitting tribute to a group that has brought so much to country music and its fans.

Jeff's caption: Hanging by the lake where the movie What About Bob was based. It rained. Baby steps... Baby steps...  Well, it's sort of show-related. |

Review................http://newenglandmusicnews.com/portfolio-view/rascal-flatts-and-scotty-mccreery-riot-tour-at-the-bank-of-new-hampshire-pavilion/
Kicking off the show was Scotty McCreery Make no mistake, McCreery, the 21-year-old North Carolina country singer some think if you win“American Idol” and appeal to the show’s dominant demographic of young girls you cant really be a “real performer” Fact is he really can sing McCreery’s voice and technique have gotten far better since “Idol.” His voice also has gained innumerable confidence – to the point where he even took chances vocally.
It’s not just McCreery’s voice that has gained confidence. His whole stage presence was more commanding even showing off his cowboy boots sporting the Patriots logo! Referencing that his father and aunt grew up in Portsmouth, New Hampshire and Eliot, Maine and how that his father raised him right.When Scotty McCreery took the stage the audience lit up when he sang songs like “Water Tower Town” and “The Trouble with Girls.” McCreery also performed a handful of classic country songs that most of the audience sang along to. His high energy set got the crowd pumped up for the headliner.
McCReery has an obvious appreciation for the songs that made country music what it is today. About halfway through his set, the 21-year-old performed what he calls the “Oldies Medley,” consisting of Merle Haggard’s “Mama Tried,” Johnny Cash’s “Folsom Prison Blues” and Alabama’s “Mountain Music.” Unfortunately, when McCreery was performing his final song, “Feelin’ It,” After closing out his set he high-fived some fans in the front before taking his bow. Then giant beach balls still being volleyed through the crowd – the audience was more than ready for Rascal Flatts.
