Lady Antebellum shows you can go home again

The trio played their first hometown headlining show in Augusta, Ga. on Monday, Nov. 15. Lady Antebellum, including Nashville's Hillary Scott and Augusta natives Charles Kelley and Dave Haywood, performed two sold-out shows and received multiple honors from the community of Augusta, including a newly designed amphitheatre to be named in their honor.

The group was surprised to learn of an approximately 7,000 capacity amphitheatre would be named the Lady Antebellum Pavilion. The park broke ground on Oct. 22 and is slated to open in summer 2011.

A sold-out acoustic midday show at an auditorium raised nearly $15,000 for the MCGHealth Children's Medical Center.

Augusta Mayor Deke Copenhaver presented Lady Antebellum with keys to the city and named a nearby street "Lady Antebellum Way" for the day.

The trio also had a surprise of their own as they presented 3 teachers from Kelley and Haywood's former high school with $1,000 each in school supplies from OfficeMax on behalf of the national "A Day Made Better" school advocacy campaign founded to erase teacher-funded classrooms.

Later that night, the group performed to a sold-out crowd at the James Brown Arena. They wrap their headlining Need You Now 2010 Tour on Nov. 20 in Kansas City, Mo.
