Here's a recap of GeorgeStrait's first-ever headlining concert at Nashville’s Nissan Stadium.
Chris Stapleton
Strait brought the Texas heat with him in more ways than one, as temperatures lingered near the nineties well after sunset, and he held court before the packed crowd, rarely straying far from the center stage microphone and letting hit song after hit song waft over the crowd and into the warm Tennessee night.Hot Country Songs chart-toppers to his credit, it’s a formidable challenge to fit in every classic Strait hit.
Whether the audience members had followed Strait’s career since its early days, or if they hadn’t even been born when Strait had his first hits, it didn’t matter: they had absorbed the songs, the lyrics, the legend. Stapleton joined Strait for a trio of songs including a cover of the 1983 Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson classic “Pancho and Lefty,” with Stapleton’s gravelly voice offering a perfect foil for Strait’s smooth, pure twang.
Elsewhere in the evening, Strait’s easygoing camaraderie with the audience also brought a few lighthearted moments, as at one point he heard a fan yell out in adoration and he responded, “I love you, too.”
