Luke Combs sang “Fast Car” on Saturday night, but he wasn’t the only one who joined him on stage to sing his current #1 song.
Luke Combs put on an amazing show at Gillette Stadium on Saturday Night. The stadium was packed! Everyone inside the stadium and outside in the parking lots had a great time.
Lainey Wilson, our new country music sweetheart, got the party started. She had the entire crowd singing along to her hits, “Heart Like A Truck,” and “Get In The Truck.” Wait a minute, she has a lot of songs about trucks doesn’t she?
Riley Green kept it going strong, and even at one point signed a football and threw it into the crowd. Whoever caught that ball is a lucky person!
By the time Luke hit the stage around 9:00pm, the place was ready to explode!
Cooper’s Big Moment On Stage
Cooper’ life was changed that night. Little Cooper was there as part of the Make-A-Wish program. Cooper got to go up on stage and sing “Fast Car” with his idol Luke Combs. Obviously the whole stadium went crazy when he did it. And Cooper did an amazing job too!
When Cooper was done singing a chorus of the song, Luke leaned down and gave him a big bear hug. He encouraged Cooper to take a bow for the audience. That’s when Luke got on the microphone and said, “He said he wants me to finish. He’s gonna stay up here with me.”
You can watch the incredible video here:
The Make-A-Wish foundation was started in 1980 to provide wishes for children with critical illnesses. The foundation has granted over half a million wishes for children in over 50 countries. John Cena alone has granted over 650 wishes.
The Rise Of Luke Combs And “Fast Car”
Tracy Chapman originally released “Fast Car” in 1988. Luke has been covering it as part of his show for years, but this year he finally released it to radio. The song is now his biggest hit on both country and pop radio. The song went to #1 on both charts, and he and Morgan Wallen are now the first set of country artists in 40 years to hold the top two spots on the Billboard Hot 100 at the same time.
The party didn’t stop all night at Gillette. Well, technically Gillette has an 11pm curfew. But you know what we mean 🙂
Show Recap!
Lainey Wilson Started The Show Off Right
She did an amazing job getting the show going. And of course she looked amazing.
Lainey Wilson will be headlining Gillette Stadium in the next 5 years. Mark our words!
Lainey Did All Her Biggest Hits
“Things A Man Oughtta Know,” “Watermelon Moonshine.” She even did a few choruses of “Wait In The Truck.” And of course she finished with her biggest hit, “Heart Like a Truck.”
I’ve never seen the place so packed for an opening artist. Lainey Wilson brought the heat!
Riley Was On Stage For Almost An Hour
The crowd went nuts for his song, “I Wish Grandpas Never Died.” But he closed with his first number one song, “There Was This Girl.”
Riley Green sang for almost an hour and had the crowd singing along the entire time! He was a perfect opener for Luke Combs
And Then The Man Himself..... Mr. Luke Combs
Luke puts on an amazing show every time he hits the stage. And couldn’t possibly be nicer. As Lainey Wilson herself put it, “y’all picked the right person to be a fan of.”
Luke was on FIRE! Shot gunning beers with fans, singing all of his radio hits, and wearing his Patriots hat. We love to see it.
