Aldean takes four minutes to sell out Georgia show
Monday, February 20, 2012 – It took all of four minutes for Jason Aldean to sell out his May 19 show at Atlanta, on Friday. A second show was announced for Atlanta, which will be held on Friday May 18 with tickets going on sale this Friday at 10 a.m. eastern.
"It feels like 2011 was sort of my coming out year, but this is a milestone I've been working toward for over a decade," said Aldean. "From the days when my mom used to drive me all over Georgia and I was playing clubs for 20 people, my dream was always to play for 20,000. Big shout out to all my peeps in Georgia for throwing me such a big coming home party."
A Macon, Ga. native, Aldean has sold more than six million copies of his four studio albums and has eight number one songs. His current single, Fly Over States, is climbing the charts.

In Adean's case, he said he has always leaned toward having more songs than less. Upon a sit down listen you get ...
Hollywood may be pushing a broadminded agenda where there are more genders than one can even count, but in Jason Aldean's world, there are only two: tough guys, and the women that love them. There's no confusion it's a guy in the "Camouflage Hat," for example. Also, nothing is said or done without also washing it down with alcohol. The opener,"Tattoos and Tequila," breaks it down into tattoos to remember, and tequila to forget.
