We saw Trace in Tunica Horseshoe Casino , one of the best shows I have ever seen. If given the chance I would see him again,would highly recommend anyone seeing him if possible

Report as inappropriate

Awesome performance by Trace Adkins and his band last night in Wisconsin Dells. That was my early birthday present to myself because he will be performing on West Coast in Mid -February

Wish there were more shows closer to where I live. I'd be able to attend more often.

Trace Adkins was phenomenal ! He was energizing . There is not enough words to describe him but fantastic. Will definitely recommend him highly . Gotta love Trace . From start to finish Terri Clark, Trace Adkins and Clint Black are top notch and great. If you have never been to their concert please make it a point to go see them all . I know I will be going back.

Trace Adkins Kicks Off His Tour by Rocking the Ryman — See Photos from the Sold-Out Night!

It was a memorable night for Adkins during his sold-out return to the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville since 2012 on April 8. The show marked the beginning of his The Way I Wanna Go tour — and featured a special surprise from pal Terri Clark

Starting Things Off Right

Adkins kicking off The Way I Wanna Go tour at Ryman Auditorium.

"We only really had that first [COVID] year where we didn't play much at all," he tells PEOPLE. "Last year, we did a few shows here and there, granted it didn't feel exactly the same. It's going to be great to get out and have people in the audience having fun and showing their pretty faces."

Belting It Out

Adkins sings his just-certified gold single "Every Light in the House."

Mixing Things Up

As for what fans can expect from this show-run, Adkins says, "We'll do the hits, we'll do the songs they've heard on the radio over the years. We know that's what they come to hear. And then to entertain ourselves we'll throw in a few things off of the new album!"

A Fan-Filled Performance

Adkins performing for the sold-out Ryman Auditorium crowd.

Getting His 'Honky Tonk' On

Adkins performs triple-platinum "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk."

A Sweet Surprise

Adkins was surprised with news of a career milestone by friend and fellow country music singer Terri Clark.

Going Gold — and Platinum!

After Clark surprised Adkins on stage, she helped Adkins' producer and label head Mickey Jack Cones present Adkins with plaques to commemorate his new RIAA certifications. His track "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk," is officially certified triple platinum, while "Every Light in the House Is On," "Songs About Me" and "Swing" are certified gold.

Taking a Moment

Adkins reflects on his career milestone.

Fan Photobomb!

Adkins surprises the Ryman Auditorium's daily-tour guests with a photobomb.

Love for the Ryman

To Adkins, the Ryman is a special place.

"First of all, it is probably the most historical music venue in this country, and turns 130 years old this year," he says. "Everybody has played here."

Taking It All In

"The Ryman is just an institution — it has such history, such a spirit, and you can feel it when you are onstage. I like how this room sounds. It's a great place to play."

BLAKE SHELTON IS BACK WITH “FRIENDS AND HEROES 2021” TOUR

Country music superstar Blake Shelton will make his long-anticipated return to the road alongside his friends and heroes beginning August 18. The boot-stomping, hit-making, arena-selling entertainer will visit 16 cities for a 17-date run, including a stop at Nashville’s own Bridgestone Arena and a two-night residency in Washington D.C. “Friends and Heroes 2021” will welcome very special guest Lindsay Ell, with special appearances by Martina McBride, Tracy Byrd and Trace Adkins.

“A little over a year ago when the world shut down and we had to postpone the tour, I was already in Omaha getting ready for the show that night,” Shelton said. “I told you we would be back, and I’m thrilled to say we are kicking off the Friends and Heroes 2021 Tour in Omaha. I’m giving everybody in every city plenty of notice – you might as well tell your boss you’re gonna be late to work the next day and pay that babysitter overtime, because we are going to play some country music for y’all until they turn on the lights. And that might not stop us! I’m excited to welcome Martina McBride, Tracy Byrd, Trace Adkins and my very special guest Lindsay Ell to the Friends and Heroes 2021 Tour… see you there!”

It includes the single “Oh Tonight,” which debuted at number 59 and peaked at 42 on the Country Songs chart in early 2011. Michael Berick of Allmusic rated the album a four stars out of five, comparing it to Steve Earle and said Abbott’s songwriting showed maturity.

They recorded their first official sell-out crowd at the World’s Largest Honky Tonk, “Billy Bob’s Texas,” located in the historic Fort Worth Stockyards on Feb. 10, 2010, which sold 6,000 tickets.

The band’s third CD, “Small Town Family Dream,” was released April 24, 2012, and peaked at number 5 on the charts. Singles from the CD include “Touch,” which peaked at 41 on the charts, “I’ll Sing About Mine,” and “She Will Be Free.”

About the Concert

According to Brenda Spencer-Ragland, Fort Sill Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation director, the concert is Family and MWR’s way of ensuring high-class talent is made available locally so residents in the area don’t have to travel to see big-name entertainment.

“Usually shows of this caliber are only available in Dallas or Oklahoma City but we bring the talent close to home for the community and to show our appreciation to the Soldiers and their families for the sacrifices they make each and every day,” she said.

The concert not only offers the community quality entertainment close to home, it is also the biggest fundraiser for Family and MWR of the year and the money helps to generate quality of life programs for Soldiers and families.

“The concert is not supplemented by Department of the Army dollars,” said Spencer-Ragland. “The concert ticket price allows us to reinvest in our facilities and maintain our programs. This is pure business. We bring quality entertainment to the area at a reasonable price. We chose the long holiday weekend to ensure that the community has a safe, close-to-home entertainment option to enjoy over the holiday weekend.”

Tickets for the July 5 Trace Adkins concert are on sale now at both Adventure Travel Offices, in the Welcome Center at 4700 Mow-Way Road and in Central Mall, and at EZ Go stores in Lawton. Tickets are also available online at www.sillmwr.com .

The concert is co-produced by Fort Sill's Directorate of Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation and the U.S. Army FMWR Command, Army Entertainment Division and is part of the Army Concert Tour. It is slated for July 5 as the highlight of the post Independence Day celebration. Gates open at 6 p.m. and the show starts at 7 p.m.
