Brad Paisley - Las Vegas - May 23, 2003

Cledus came back out saying "Uh huh..." and then told us, "No, when I say "Uh huh" you're supposed to say it back to me when I come back out. So he went back off stage and came on with his "Uh huh" and everyone repeated it back to him.

It was here that Cledus asked us if it was ok for him to sing one of his own songs, which everyone cheered for. He then sang "270 Something," which is a parody of Mark Wills' "19 Something." My favorite line is when he talks about losing so much weight he can fit in Mark Wills' pants.

After he was done, he said, "Are ya ready for Brad Paisley?" and everything screamed to the affirmative. Brad came out wearing a long sleeve white shirt and jeans, and later donned a white hat as well. His stage set includes a "fishing" boat. And you know what that was for.

He started with the title track of his upcoming July release, "Mud on the Tires." His current single "Celebrity" is also from this album.

From there he went into the guitar intro to "Wrapped Around," and asked if everyone was having a good time, and he was gonna have a good time whether we liked it or not.

The fun-spirited "Two Feet of Top Soil" was next, and then Brad talked about a guy that he met and how he met his girlfriend, and said that there was a song about it, and he started into "We Danced," and everyone screamed and applauded, and he said "Oh, you heard that already? Ok, never mind." Brad's got such a sense of humor. :)

Later in the set he said he had a new song about imperfections in women, and that it was going to be on his new album. I don't know if it was a joke or the truth. The song is hilarious about how she crashes his car and he lives for little moments like that.

Something that Brad is doing for his shows on the Neon Circus Tour is bringing up a winner to be a celebrity for 3 minutes during his show. The winner gets to come on stage while he sings "Celebrity." The girl that won just played the guitar on the sidelines, or pretended to play. Her name was Amanda.

Brad's show lasted 45 minutes
