Jon Pardi On Touring With Alan

[BIGHUSKERSRED]

Thought you might all be interested in reading this. It's great to hear once in a while new and young country music artist(s) speak of how Alan affects and influences them, what they learn from him to make it and be successful in country music and how he inspires them. Jon Pardi expressed these in a brief interview with tasteofcountry.com about his experience touring with and opening for Alan in his Keepin' It Country tour.

Thanks for Posting this.. Loved it! I'm sure they respect Alan and he has been a good role model for many.

I miss so many Fans who used to post on this site.I am not on FACEBOOK.
Does anyone know what happened to Kay from Long ago? I shall miss Terry, she wrote me & also Dean.
Also Sue, I saw at concerts. I wish I knew how she is.

It's Great that Alan has new Singers that open for him, such as a Concert where I first saw Little Big Town & now they are getting their due Awards or Zac Brown Band. Love them all.

Campbell was on the show for Cancer research and I enjoyed that Concert & we need to give money as most people have family that is affected by it.I know my sister has cancer, but she is doing well now.
who would not want to Tour w/Alan & the Strayhorns. many have & started their careers I'm sure..

 I had Terry introduce me to Monty and we shook hands. He is so nice & sweet.Sorry about his Dad's Passing.
 
I saw Roger on the way to meet Alan at my M & G. I had to run after seeing Roger's beautiful smile and not keep Alan waiting for little ole me.. LOL we talked a good while..before the show..He is ALL I expected and more.. He looks even better up close than on TV, his mannerisms are so sweet and he is so nice & polite. I had my arm around his waist & It was as If I had known him all my Life. I admire him so much and his Non-pretentious ways are charming. His Music is the Best & his Voice even sounds deeper as he ages.
I just love ANYTHING Alan Jackson does..
Thanks to Alan for Keeping it Country but I loved "Like Red On A Rose too" He proved to me, he could sing anything & be good at it. Keep on Keeping On!
God Bless, Jerrie(MS Hometown)
Note: There are Great Restaurants in Nashville. we ate at "The Palm" I think it was. so much to see & enjoy.

Sounds like you had a wonderful time meeting all the important people in Nashville.  I am handicapped so travelling would be out for me now.  I'm 78 and always have to have a venue with an elevator and a wheel chair.  I am praying to see Alan again this year at The Palace of Auburn Hills or Casino Windsor.  I will be uncomfortable but will do that for Alan.  My daughter usually takes me and cares for me and those venues are very courteous.  If you go early, you get front row handicapped parking too and can get your picture taken by Alan's truck if the guards will let you.  I've done it twice.

I last say Alan on September 5, 2014 at Casino Windsor and Cindy gave us VIP tickets so we could go to the lounge.  Can't wait to see Alan again.  I pray every day with his Precious moments DVD. 

I am so happy you had a wonderful time.  Alan , please come here again.
