Country Legends

Today I decided to blog about a couple country legends. They are one of my all time favorite country groups and one of the reasons why I fell in love with country music. Their name is Brooks & Dunn and they came to Hershey, Pennsylvania last summer. Brooks & Dunn is made up of Ronnie Dunn and Kix Brooks.

They announced earlier last year that they were calling it quits after 20 years. I made it a point to see them before they called it quits. They weren't as good as I thought they would be but they were still pretty good.

One part that stands out to me is that during a portion of the concert Kix Brooks came out with the Calder Cup, A trophy given to the team that wins the American Hockey League and said "does this belong to anyone?".

The Hershey Bears had recently won back to back Calder Cup titles and some of the players came on stage to claim it and the fans cheered.

Here are some pictures from the concert and a video from Brooks & Dunn.

  5. Growing up in the country, I would hear a lot of their music on the radio. My Aunt & Uncle also went to one of their concerts it Hershey. They said it was very good as well.
