That is one great story and crazy day. Sounds like it was still fun all madness aside.

I did read on Twitter, however, that Brad didn’t play until dawn and even finished 45 minutes early?

Thanks so much for being our eyes and ears, Lynn, and for all you went through… GREAT job!

I’ve seen Mr. Paisley several times in concert, and although his shows are filled with bells and whistles, he really doesn’t need ‘em. The man is a mastercraftsman of songs, a humorist, a guitar virtuouso, and a pretty darn good singer as well.

And while he’s settin his six-sting on fire with those blazing fingers, his gifted band keeps right up with him.

Brad brings amusing uptempo songs and tear inducing ballads to every show, and I think he excels at both. And he always keeps it Counry… the echoes of Appalachia, whether faint or clear, can be heard in every note he sings, and every stroke he plays.

All the while, the man retains his humility, and appreciation for his audience, and a natural, easy-going Country charisma.

He is truly one of Country’s finest.

I’m surprised that the night didn’t close with Reba, and also surprised that she includes “Ring on Her Finger” in her set list. I love her spin on that!

This report is awesome. I’m about as far away from the west coast as possible, and I’ve always wanted to check out Stagecoach!

Great recap! It’s a good thing you had a sense of humor about it all. I’m not huge on outdoor festivals because I’m never satisfied with the sound, I’m not much for outhouses and I hate carrying the chair around.:) I make exceptions for local bluegrass festivals though.

I’m really glad you enjoyed it. Reba is a great performer, I’ve seen her twice so far and she is truly amazing!!! I hope you will have another chance to go next year maybe.
