Aldean sets more records

Sunday, July 14, 2013 – Jason Aldean notched two more venue attendance records this weekend at Fenway Park breaking Paul McCartney's single night record and The Dave Matthews Band's two-night record previously set in 2006.

Fans snatched up more than 70,000 tickets in less than an hour and packed the ballpark on Friday and Saturday nights as Aldean made history as the first country artist to play Fenway.

"I heard we also set a new all time record for beer sales," joked Aldean. "They drank Boston dry...it was wild." Aldean told the crowd on Friday that he was excited to play Fenway because he was a Sox fan growing up.

Miranda Lambert, Jake Owen and Thomas Rhett also played the shows.

The 2013 Night Train Tour has sold out every show so far this year and continues next week at Wrigley Field in Chicago on July 20.

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. Within its booze for every ...
CD review - Rearview Town If you liked Jason Aldean's three previous number one albums, you'll like "Rearview Town." He sticks to the winning formula that has brought him past success. The 15 tracks are mainly juiced up, muscular numbers with scorching guitar. Ironically, amid the torrid tempos and high volume that dominate the collection, the ballads are the standouts, especially with the duet with the Miranda Lambert on "Drowns The Whiskey." Instead of whiskey drowning a memory, the inverse ...
