Fri 15 Aug – Toby Keith, Montgomery Gentry

Great crowd, pouring rain, for the first half anyway. Not a huge Toby Keith fan but his thunderous vocals were something to be experienced. I thought the show was a little too structured, as each of his popular songs were sung along with a video, so I don't think he had much room to improvise besides saying "Virginia Beach!" a couple times. He also sang Beer For My Horses with a Willie Nelson video. I think I would've rather seen him sing it with a real person standing in for Willie, but again the concert structure probably wouldn't allow it. Virginia Beach being a very large military community, and the huge response he got for his patriotic songs, like Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue (The Angry American), I would've thought he would have sang that song again or improvised it some, but again… structure… It was a good night of country, honky tonk, rock, and even a little funk – During a small break in Toby's format, someone came out and sang Voulez Vous Coucher Avec Moi… interesting.
