You can bet Kennys latest hit, Til Its Gone, will be in the set list that night. In fact, he recorded that song specifically with his concert crowds in mind. While looking for material for his latest album, The Big Revival, Kenny was challenged by his songwriter friend, David Lee Murphy, to think about what he wanted to say to his fans when he got back onstage. Kenny continues, Okay, imagine me, my first night in 2015: very first show, very first night. And there I am at the edge of the stage, and here’s my audience. And I haven’t seen them in a while. What do I want to say to ’em? Luckily, David had co-written Til Its Gone with some other hit writers in Nashville, and it summed up exactly how Kenny felt about his fans. Even though its written about a male/female relationship, Kenny says of Til ITs Gone, If you take that [romantic element] away, and add thousands of people, this song fits.

Jason Aldean has long-term dreams of opening up his own bar or nightclub, but unlike most country stars with bar or restaurant ventures, Jason wont be banking on his famous name to bring in customers. He sees the business venture as something to do in case his star fades a little bit down the road. Jason tells The Country Vibe, I’d almost rather not even have my name on it and just build something so that when my career’s over or whatever, and all the sudden my name recognition may not be that big a deal for what it is.” Since Jason started playing in bars when he was just 14-years-old, he feels like he would be a natural at owning and operating his own watering hole. I feel like I know a pretty good bit about the bar business, Jason explains. So, something like that would be pretty cool, but I’m talking big nightclub kind of thing. That would be something I’d be into.” Jasons career is still red hot these days with his 2015 Burn It Down tour launching February 12 in Greenville, South Carolina. Condolences to country Music Hall of Fame member Mel Tillis, whose longtime drummer, Chuck Landry, was killed in a house fire in Branson, Missouri, Thursday night.
