Luke Bryan’s Raised Up Right tour brought in fans of all ages and sold out the 28k seat Hollywood Casino Amphitheater. Bryan is not only an outstanding performer, but also the owner of his Nashville restaurant Luke’s 32 Bridge, 32 Bridge Entertainment, and a judge on American Idol.
The night kicked off with Mitchell Tenpenny, who just received his 3rd #1 hit with his song “Truth About You.” He sang many of his other hits, such as “Alcohol You Later” and his duet with Chris Young “At the End of a Bar.” Tenpenny closed out his set with a cover of “Ole Red,” “Iris,” and his first #1 song “Drunk Me.” He brought a great energy to the crowd and utilised the stage to connect with his fans.
The next artist to hit the stage was Riley Green. He opened with “Different Round Here,” which was followed with “If it Wasn’t for Trucks.” He performed many of his hits, which included his recent duet with Thomas Rhett “Half of Me.” When it was time to perform “I Wish Grandpas Never Died,” the whole crowd held their phones high and lit up the theater. His first cover song of the night was Toby Keith’s “Should Have Been a Cowboy,” which had the whole crowd engaged and singing along. Green closed the night with his first smash hit “There Was This Girl.” Prior to this show, Green was announced as an opener for Luke Comb’s world tour and his performance was one that his fans will cherish.
The lights dimmed and the 28k crowd came to life as Luke took the stage opening with “I Don’t Want This Night to End.” He moved around the stage with ease covering all areas. He sang some of his hits off his latest album “Born Here Love Here Die Here,” such as “Knockin’ Boots” and “One Margarita.” He later sung his newest release “Country On.” Bryan followed with “What Makes You Country” before he slowed things down with his song “Most People Are Good.” He followed with his hit duet with Jordan Davis “Buy Dirt” before bringing out a piano and performing “Strip it Down” and “Do I.” Mitchell Tenpenny was then called to the stage to perform a few covers, one of which was “Good Directions,” which was written by Bryan for Billy Currington. After Tenpenny exited the stage, Riley Green came out to perform a few covers as well, which included “Sweet Home Chicago.” Bryan then went into “Drink a Beer” solo, to which the crowd again raised their phones and lit up the theatre. He closed out his 27-song set with “That’s My Kind of Night” and “Country Girl,” which left fans wanting more. This concert was packed with energy from the start to finish with a very strong and talented lineup.
