Live reviews
Brantley Gilbert has gained a huge following for his alt-country sound since releasing his debut in 2009. He is not a traditional country artist by any sense of the word, there is far more emphasis on rock within his music and this makes for a far more engaging live show.
As Gilbert commands the stage and the audience as one whilst jamming out with his slick live band to 'Kick It in the Sticks'. Huge, pulsing drums echo around the venue and the audience claps along in time enthusiastically whilst Brantley serenades the crowds with his unique, gruff vocal. Huge cheers raise the roof for 'You Don't Know Her Like I Do' as the singer really gives his all for this anthemic number as the crowd supports him through the choruses.
Left with a huge smile on his face, he is invigorated and tears through all the hits that the crowds have come to hear before his band teases the introduction to perhaps his best known track 'Country Must Be Countrywide'. The audience applauds rapturously and encourages the band to really rock out on this fan favourite and as they take the final bows, the crowd are still chanting the singer's name.
An amazing show from the first act Luke Combs which hit us like a Hurricane. Then we "Rock On" with Tucker. Finally Brantley comes up out of the stage . The crowd was so loud he even said he was speechless. Fireworks, fire we had it all. We had a large group with us and made lots of memories. Favorite part of the show is when he held up the American Flag!!! Will have to see another show with all the great moments from this show! The devil don't sleep cause the energy is too high!! BG Nation!! Plus a Bootlegger as well!
The show was absolutely amazing!! The videos playing in the background were awesome! The band is ALWAYS great, and of course I loved hearing the songs off the new album, even though we listened to it all the way to the show!! My daughter and I had meet and greets. I'm sorry she tackled you, but meeting you was a dream come true for her. Thank You for being so great with her! You are all she listens to!! Can't wait to see you in Chattanooga TN again!!
The Brantley concert last night in burgettestown was fantastic. Not only was he super hott but his preformance was awesome, I liked that he moved around the stage and engaged more with crowd instead of standing in one spot. The lighting and effects were awesome. I would of liked of heard more of his new songs but that gives me something to look forward to hearing them at next years concert.
BG rocked the stage again last night as he does every time we see him. This makes #6 and will keep seeing him every time he comes to Michigan. This show was the most memorable because Garth Brooks showed up as a surprise guest. He hadn’t played that stage in 30 years!!! The whole show was amazing!!!!! Brantley Gilbert is the best performer ever!!!!
Brian Davis eh
Luke Combs ok
Tucker Bethard base way to loud pretty awful
Brantley Gilbert AMAZING! AWESOME! WONDERFUL. SPECTACULAR. SUPER. LOVED IT! Can't wait to do it again! Thanks Brantley. Oh. Only thing. Really disappointed ya sold out of beanies. My kids really wanted one as a Suvenier and we can't even order them online.
Brantley was awesome and sounded great. He's a good entertainer and got the crowd into it! The supporting artist were both good but the venue was so full we were there on time but it took so long to get in we missed one whole set. But I would definitely recommend seeing Brantley and will probably do so myself again!
Truly an amazing show!! Luke Combs, Tucker Beathord, and Brian Davis rocked they started what would be a fun and entertaining night of great music. Brantley killed it with his high energy and awesome music. Would definitely go again from lights, music and flames you couldn't ask for a better show!!!
Brantleys concerts are amazing! He's an awesome singer/performer and puts on a great show! I saw him in Hershey, PA in April 2016 on his first tour and in Scranton, PA last night on his new tour and both were awesome! I'm making it my goal to see him every time he tours!!
