Keith gets bigger and biggerest
Montgomery Gentry has been added to the already crowded bill for Toby Keith's Sept. 20 show at Usana Amphitheatre.
Also opening for Keith on his "Biggest and Baddest Tour Presented by Ford F-Series" are three acts on Keith's Show Dog label: Carter's Chord, Mica Roberts and Trailer Choir.
As for Montgomery Gentry, they are a duo (Mr. Montgomery and Mr. Gentry) who have recorded more than twenty chart singles on the Billboard country chart, including the No. 1 hits "If You Ever Stop Loving Me," "Something to Be Proud Of," "Lucky Man," and "Back When I Knew It All."
Tickets go on sale Saturday, July 12, at 10 a.m. at SmithsTix. For a limited time offer, people can buy two reserved seats for $40.
Speaking of lucky men, I was able to talk to the three sisters of Carter's Chord the other day. Becky, Emily and Joanna Robertson are Carter's Chord, and it just occurred to me, right now as I'm writing this, that I don't know why they got their name. I assumed their last name was Carter, but after the interview I learned it was Robertson. Dang.
Anyway, they are three relatively recent Nashville transplants from southern California, and their grew up listening to country because their parents were part of Waylon Jennings' backing band for many years. They moved from Reseda (remember that line in Tom Petty's "Free Fallin'"?) to Nashville, though, without knowing anyone except the Waylon Jennings family. Emily said, "Waylon Jennings was our emergency contact on our school forms."
