Keith Urban

I could sit here in front of my laptop and tell you how amazing Keith Urban is. I could describe his beautiful, luscious hair that every guy envies and every girl adores (don’t lie to yourself, guys, you know you love it). Or I could go on about his mesmerizing voice, with its New-Zealand Australian twist, how it had the power to make things happen, the power to invigorate one’s love for another, the power to brighten life.
When I was twelve, a couple years after Golden Road was released, me and my dad shared a bond over Keith’s CD. It was crazy how many times we listened to it. I would ride with him in his Chevrolet, we’d roll the windows down, put the CD in, and turn the volume up. “You Wouldn’t Wanna Be Me” was definitely our song. The irony that my dad actually had a hole in his jeans was bittersweet. We would sing the lyrics “from Georgia to Tennessee!” riding on I-75 while the cars driving next to us would give us that “what on earth are they doing.” awkward smile.
My first official concert was in Atlanta, GA for my dad’s 40th birthday; it was a surprise present. No, our seats weren’t floor seats or even in the mid-section for that matter, but they were seats and honestly, I didn’t care, because we were about to witness Keith Urban perform LIVE. Song after song Keith would sing, without flaw - I did not want to leave. Through his music, the crowd illuminated singing along, and you could tell that as his voice diffused through the crowd, everyone instantly became overjoyed with a flood of honesty and love. Love for the music, love for those around them to share it with, and love for the privilege to be there and have a good time. Pure jubilance.
Whether it’s raining on Sunday or a long hot summer in a red camaro, his music is perfect for every moment. Watching Keith rise from the number eighteen single “It’s a Love Thing” to “Your Everything” at number four, making him the first male New Zealand performer to reach the top 10 on the U.S. country chart, to winning his first Grammy in 2006 making his way onto television featuring as a vocal coach on The Voice in 2011 and a judge on American Idol. And that’s not even a fourth of his accomplishments. He never fails to amaze us, entertain us, and show us the passion he has for his music.
The smooth fluidity his voice obtains has the ability to move some to tears and smile for years. When you combine his talent on the guitar, piano, drums, keyboard, sitar, bass guitar, or ganjo with his voice, magic is born. Every. Time. During his life, Keith encounters rough patches, he feels hurt, he understands sadness when you think you’re at your lowest point, because he has been there, and he has learned to translate those memories into these beautiful, vibrant songs that he shares throughout the world to encourage us to push forward and to simply enjoy life. His music is infectious. And for that, I applaud Keith Urban, not only to thank him for the grace he shows us, but also for the wondrous music he shares with us.

So you see the genre, which is country, and you automatically think "pass". Though, I think Keith Urban has done something to country that other country artist are starting to catch on to! He's went from singing a song about where a black top ends, to singing about falling in love in a cop car! He's created uniqueness in country, that country needed to reinvent themselves!
He's Australian, married to the beautiful Nicole Kidman, and oh yeah he's a judge on American Idol! Though it's not the lifestyle that draws the hundreds of thousands to his sold out shows, it's the entertainment behind it all! Keith Urban's Live shows give you the kind of adrenaline rush that leaves you thinking, "Okay where's the closest place he's playing next!?" His Guitar playing skills leave you wanting to go by an electric the next day! Making the audience feel welcomed is a key figure in a live show, and whenever Keith asks you to come up on stage with him, I think he's giving way more then an average feeling welcomed. Starting out in Nashville, and now touring all over the world, fans love hearing when he sings songs about "Once in a lifetime Love" or how bad he wants to "kiss a girl" Then of course he wins all the girls hearts with his mega hits like "Without You" and "Love Somebody Like You"! It's crazy to believe that I once was someone who would've said "pass" and now I'm always wondering where Keith Urban is playing closest to me!

Another stellar performance by KEITH URBAN!! But then again, Keith doesn't give anything but those kind of performances. The show at Delaware State Fair was my 31st show for Keith and it will not be my last. I had pit tickets for this show and arrived about 3 pm to get in line. Yes, it is a long time to wait for entrance to the arena but it is worth every minute to be able to stand so close to the stage and see every expression on Keith's face as he plays. Keith started the show off with high energy and kept it going all the way through. He played many songs from the new Fuse album but also played the tried and true favorites. A special part of the show is when Keith goes out into the audience to play SHIRT and then gives away his guitar to a fan standing nearby. On his way back up to the big stage he walked in front of us on the first row and I got a hand squeeze! I think Keith would have loved to play longer but stopped about 10 minutes shy of 2 hours because the fireworks were getting ready to go off. This man always gives his all in each performance and always leaves me wanting to see him again!

***** Five + Stars!! What an amazing show and performance. Great Night, no politics, just fun and Keith was so personable. Man the guy can flat out play, sing and entertain!!

Great set list and he just played all night long. Maren Morris opened for him and she was fantastic in her short set. She will go far this year, she's got all the right attributes. Just needs to add a member or two to her already great band.

Had the chance to meet her in a Meet & Greet and she was so genuine and gracious with her time with the folks waiting to meet her.

Brett Eldridge played as well and from the crowd noise sounded like he rocked it. We missed his set meeting Maren.

Keith Urban, Thank You for a night of fun and relaxation when we really needed it. One of my top 3 shows EVER and he was already on this list from 3 years ago!!! So now he is 2 of my top 3 ever. And I've got the grey hair to have a long list. Music is our passion, Thanks Keith for fueling it even more!!!

2hr15 mins of pure power and energy. Old favourites mixed in with new numbers performed in front of an adoring audience. Wonderful band who complimented Keith's talents to a tee. A mixture of rocking country and acoustic ballads complimented by an effective light show bearing in mind 02 ( NW London) is a small venue for such a huge star.
His interaction with the audience made for short but natural breaks for everyone to regain their breath before the next hit was belted out by the Aussie rocker. Some of his songs from the early albums were cleverly rearranged to breath new life into them.Great to hear his new takes on old material.
Great performance made for a thoroughly enjoyable evening. One complaint was the inordinate delay getting into the venue. Waiting for over 45 mins in the cold and wind to gain access was unacceptable.

What a show! Maren Morris was so much fun, Dallas Smith is always excellent and Keith Urban is a fantastic entertainer! It's so great to see a performer who never EVER disappoints! He has so much fun on stage, truly loves his audience, and is one of the most genuine people I have ever seen! He treats his audience with so much respect, interacts so personally (Happy Birthday to Bella!), and I LOVE how he showcases each member of his band! Keith is so gifted with his talents: Stupid Boy, the first song of his encore was so raw, and he sang with so much passion and emotion, it brought tears to my eyes. Just his voice and his acoustic guitar... I loved every minute of the show. He is the real deal, and I can't wait until he comes this way again!

Oh wow, what an awesome show, such an amazing talent, and oh la la can Keith Urban shred! And he's so freakin sweet and kind! And adorable! Lol. You know what I love? When you can tell he absolutely adores his fans, he seems thrilled to be doing what he's doing, and he's humble and thankful, not forgetting where he started, the stage setup on the lawn for 3-4 songs proves that! The best show I've seen in quite a while! Fabulous! We unfortunately missed the first opener, Maren Morris, but the young lady returned to the stage to preform "We Were Us" with Keith and she was fantastic! Brett Eldredge's set was super too! He also came back out to preform with Keith, awesomeness! #ripCORDworldtour2016

GraffitiU concert on September 27 in Eugene Oregon was awesome the best concert I have been to and I’ve been to a lot of concerts the very first for me seeing Keith Urban, and he was fantastic. Kelsea Ballerini was out of this world as well as Larkin Poe... I have been a big Keith Urban fan since early 2000, but being able to see him perform in person was up there with one of thee very best highlights of my life. I will see him again in concert and I will this time go for a meet and greet do you turbine is just so loud he interacts with his bands on every level and it just it’s amazing how very personable humble and caring he is.
We Love you and yours Keith Urban!

I am lucky to of seen Keith Urban twice. Can't wait, hope he comes back to Tamworth. Now the experience. Had booked my parking, so they had a person at every parking ticket bay. She helped me scan it. Concert was absolutely fantastic. No problems inside, got out easy. The wonderful staff helped with the gates and which was the way out. They were still smiling, not cranky at all.even got out fast, from level 7. Overall I would say 10 out of 10. Oh you need to sell coffee on each floor please. It's a bit much going back down the stairs to the coffee place. Hope that helps you out. Please thank your staff. They really did work together happily. Thank you Kathy
