Fantastic! I didn't think to look at the website and was under the impression it would be up-and-coming no-name performers, but it wasn't; they were well-known artists and we had a great time! Lainey Wilson, Matt Stell, Chase Rice, Scotty McCreary all performed 2-3 songs each and what a great show! The tickets cost less than some silly bus tour we took earlier that day that was a total waste. Don't miss this!

G.O.O. is beautiful place to visit! We got to see Henry Cho inducted by Vince Gill and we saw a brand new singer make her G.O.O. debut!

Ty was absolutely awesome and knew so many facts about the city. I would totally recommend this tour as something fun to do.
