Kenny Chesney What was up?

[Suzi90712]

Kenny looked that way on Oprah a few weeks ago.

I agree...something was wrong with KC. I have seen him every year since 2003 and this by far is the WORST performance ever by him. I am due to see him again in Atlanta in a month or so. I hope he improves or Im going to be pissed at the amount of money I will be spending to fly home to see him in concert.

Kenny was in vegas Saturday and i of course would have gone to see him here but rather have seen him at stagecoach...my friends said he went on here in Vegas forever and it was an amazing show...i think he was probably exhausted because i am a HUGE kenny and i thought he was kind of boring....

I thought he was either drunk or sunburned. He did not seem into just like Tim McGraw didn't either. I was really enjoyed Brad's performance and Kid Rock's as well.

I'm bettin on drunk....cause I could not even understand him most of the time!

For a minute I thought maybe it was just me!! lol.

[Strunkas]

he seemed good, but i could have just been more drunk than him. His mind definetly did not sound like he was all there with us!

[ValinVegas]

Just found out he played an almost FOUR HOUR SHOW here in Vegas Saturday night!! so bummed i missed it...but stagecoach overall was worth it!

I have never seen KC before but I was disappointed in his performance. He did look blotted....kind of like Elvis did in some of his shows (I'm dating myself). He should have saved some of himself for the thousands of people staying late on a work night just to see him (with a three hour drive after the show).

Wow. I was enjoyed by Tim McGraw too, and suchlike, in any event, really, and further.

I'm used to seeing a concert and not getting to hear every song I want to, because usually I'll know more songs than the average concert goer and there's only so much time to get the big hits out there, but there were so many songs by Kenny I wanted to hear and didn't get to. I guess I should have been in Vegas the night before.

I thought KC was drunk I left in the middle I couldn't get into him.

Ok guys here is the scoop on Kenny . . . my friend works for screen works and it turns out that Kenny as we all know likes to party . . . well in Vegas the night before not only did he do an extra long set but then he went out and partied and the rumor is that he didnt go to sleep until 1pm on Sunday . . . so that is why he was late getting on stage and why he looked so unlike himself . . . he was hungover and exhausted . . .

I just found this out about an an hr ago and was also among the ones who were a bit disapointed w his preformance . . . He looked miserable and the sound was terrible . . . . my other friend who was sitting front row said she looked like he was struggling to get the words out the whole time . . . I do not think it was very smart to book an artist the very next day after playing a show in vegas.

I still love Kenny and would like to see him on a normal night . . .

I thought he was ok at SC before but the sound was horrible. One of the guys on my hockey team went to the vegas show and said it was great and went on for hours. There may be something to the wore out or hung over theory.

Well I have to say that I think about it a little differently... I was in the second row and I have to say that I thought he was great.. I did notice he seemed a little distant...He interacted with us allot and he seemed to come and sing more just left of center in front of us, But then I found out why.....

During the last song "Don't Blink" One of the road crew came up to us and said "Kenny asked us 4 of us to come back stage" So, My 2 oldest daughters, my best friend and I RAN!!!!!! The guy took us back by the drummer and we waited for the song to finish.... Then Kenny came walking out from stage and looked at us and said "hey girls, come on" and waived for us to follow... with the road crew guy in tow we followed Kenny to his bus. He went in and the road guy said wait here for one second... I thought I was dreaming that this was happening to me ( Kennys Biggest fan!!) After a few minutes Kennys manager opened the door to the rig and said come on in girls... We all went into the most beautiful rig I have ever seen. The manager introduced himself to us and we chit chated.. Then in the back of the rig a door slid open like star track....SHHHHHH.. And Kenny came walking out with a huges smile on his face... He looked great! He asked all of our names and gave us a hug as we shook his hand.. we talked about his music and I got to tell him about My daughter opening for Wynonna, and about our trips to the carribeans, and my daughter got to tell him that when I am old and dying her instructions are, to put Kenny in the IPOD and hold my hand until I go to meet the Lord! LOL

THIS is when he told us this, " I invited you here because I watched you girls sing every song word for word, and dancing and having a great time," "I want you to know how much I appreciated that! I could tell you were having a great time and that you loved my Music" "When I was busting my but trying to put on a show, most of the audience was just standing there looking at me.. half them were just sitting down!" "It was a tough audience"

So then we went outside the bus and took photos together.....Then he said that they had to take off now and Thanked us again.

Soooooooo, I feel like maybe he just got a little bummed when he couldn't pump the audience up... "Not" Normal for Kenny... I think allot of people were drunk and/or tired after 3 days of partying, and it was obvious Kid had the crowd ROARING... Must have been tough on Kenny who packs the most stadiums than anyone in the music industry to have happen to him. I have to say he looked deflated... I saw him in Vegas last year, front row, and I also have to agree with a previous poster that he usually has the audience against the stage and high fives, and signs autographs.. I was suprised that the pit was there, last year the stage was interactive until Sunday, One of the security told me that TIM wanted the stage moved back.

All in all I think that I understand what happened and would not give up on Kenny........ (like Tim) It was just a one time wierd thing that happend. It was actually good for my daughter to here that even Mega Super Star singers have tough nights.... and they are harder on themselves than the Fans are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just my take on the whole thing....

[redhawkdavid]

Everyone is right I Love kenny but my buddy and i were disappointed he said we werent leaving till Kenny finishes but we left before the last three songs I wonder if he was dead tired or hungover?

[IheartMillerLite]

What a great story Tropical!! I was having fun and dancing around too. Not the best Kenny concert ever, but I still enjoyed it. I'm so jealous you got to meet him. But I know it was deserved!!

[deegee83]

Aw T-C, I am so stoked for you and your group. Thanks for posting the story of how you ended up meeting Kenny after the concert - Great photos, BTW!!!

OMG my attempt at humor was a complete failure!!!!!!

Guess I better think of some other talent for the competition.
