Trace Adkins et Exile

Seeing Trace Adkins at the Grand Ole Opry was quite the experience that I will never forget. The venue was set up well for Trace, and they had all of the lights set up to show him off very well before he even came onto the stage. It was not the type of environment where you jump around and dance to the music, rather you just enjoy the greatness of the country artist at hand.

Trace was celebrating his 10th anniversary during the show and he came out with a black v neck shirt on and a black cowboy hat. He started to sing right away barely even acknowledging the crowd. As seen with many artists before, the microphone said Grand Ole Opry on it. While this was not a prop for Trace it will still a prop on the stage that could not be unseen since it was right in front of Trace.

The first song that he performed was 'This Ain't No Thinkin' Thing' and it started of the concert great. Trace sounded wonderful and the rest of the band members hit their notes just the way that they should have. I was glad to have been able to see a legend such as Trace Adkins in person because he really sung a good show.

Two hours of crazy nutty Japanese fun. That is how I would describe this Exile show. I do not understand a single word of Japanese but you know what they say… When in Tokyo… Go see Exile, so that’s what I did.

Their outfits obviously were the highlight of the show, gotta love those crazy pants. But really the crowd as a whole was so captivated and into them it really made for a crazy fun experience. Glow sticks, lighters, everything, it was almost as if it was a mellow rave at points. I liked how the stage was almost like a huge jungle gym..

So many paths and things to climb on that it really made for fun entertainment just watching them all run around. It always amazes me how a group like this can captivate an entire audience like this and they pulled it off.

If you’re looking for a fun Japanese band of dudes, this is your group. If you’re looking for just a fun wild night, these are also your guys. If you just want to shake your hips, sing along and have some fun, these are also your guys.

Music is all about performance, and these guys perform well, and the crowd and myself really enjoyed it. You would too, go check them out!
