Paisley ends first tour leg with help from Underwood

Monday, March 5, 2012 – Brad Paisley's Virtual Reality World Tour 2012 finished the first leg of the tour this past weekend in Baltimore, Knoxville, Tenn. and Lexington, Ky.

The tour began mid-January and played to more than 218,000 fans with 19 sell-outs. Special guests on the tour have been The Band Perry and Scotty McCreery.

On Friday evening, at Thompson Boling-Arena in Knoxville, Underwood implemented her perfectly planned sneak attack on Paisley with very few people in on the surprise or even knowing she was on the premises. When she walked out on stage and joined him on their number one hit duet, Remind Me, Paisley was taken completely off-guard, but didn't miss a note.

Later Underwood tweeted, "Had so much fun tonight surprising @BradPaisley-Thanks Knoxville!!" Paisley responded with a retweet and "Coolest thing that's happened this tour!"

More Virtual Reality World Tour dates will be announced soon.

CD review - Hits Alive Brad Paisley's new live hits CD is a bit of a tease. That's because it only goes half way in replicating the true live Paisley experience. Watching the accompanying concert videos at a Paisley show, whether the venue screen is showing Andy Griffith during Waitin' on a Woman or the montage of recently-deceased celebrities that accompanies When I Get Where I'm Going, reveal how Paisley simply must be seen to be fully enjoyed. Nevertheless, Paisley in concert and captured on ...
CD review - American Saturday Night Brad Paisley has grown up on his eighth album. Yes, the West Virginian maintains a sense of humor, but apparently aging has left its mark on a maturing singer who has never forsaken his country roots. That is ever so apparent in songs like Anything Like Me and Oh Yeah, You're Gone. The former finds Paisley looking at the passage of time through his son's life in a tender, but not sappy look. On the latter, he's a five-year-old boy who doesn't get what he wants, which his grandfather notices. ...
