On March 6, 2009, a sold out Knoxville (Tenn.) Coliseum crowd found out what millions of Jason Aldean fans already knew: he's a rising star and a damn fine entertainer. The concert was lights out and over-the-top. Those lu... more »cky enough to attend experienced not just an I-can't-wait-to-tell-myfriends- about-this show, but also benefited from the sum of years of hard work and determination. "Wide Open Live And More!" captures Jason Aldean at his rockin' country best. All the hits are here--"Amarillo Sky," "Why," "Hicktown," "Relentless," "She's Country," "Johnny Cash," "Laughed Until We Cried" and "Big Green Tractor"--and so are the live show favorites like "Wide Open," "I Break Everything I Touch" and "Asphalt Cowboy," among others. Not only does Jason sing his hits, he connects with his audience and offers them an escape, if only for the night. That's what real entertainers do. TRACK LISTING: 1. Wide Open 2.

Checked this out since Aldean is a big star in country music but did not hear any songs that I recognized. It did seem like a good concert if you are a fan though!

"Since seeing Jason Aldean live in Dallas, Texas this summer I have wanted to see him sing again live and this DVD simply delivers that desire to one's doorstep! I've really enjoyed it as you have front row seats and can pay closer attention to the specifics that contribute to Jason's success. Jason Aldean and his WONDERFUL band have recently skyrocketed to the top of the billboards and this DVD will give you a good idea why. It is a quality DVD, produced well and of course it is full of all of his hits, plus more. I HIGHLY recommend it to all. I'll promise you that you won't be disappointed!"
Aldean does not disappoint!

"First off, the sound on the 5.1 is amazing! One of the best sounding live dvd's I've ever heard. The concert is top notch stuff, great setlist, great performance. This is the type of dvd that is capable of winning over new fans, not just for the existing fan base. As Jason mentions in the behind the scenes footage, this is to show what he's about. This is as strong a live dvd as there is in the country market. If you're a fan, it's a must have, if you're curious, check it out, it's impressive!"
