Country superstar, Jason Aldean entertained his fans just like he did before, as his last two trips to Evansville, IN were sell outs at Ford Center. Downtown Evansville was thriving as thousands of people were walking the streets headed to Ford Center. This year’s tour was “We Were Here Tour” with special guests Thomas Rhett and A Thousand Horses. Evansville was only the second performance of this tour and each act sure knew how to please a full house. A Thousand Horses started with singing cover songs with their songs in the mix. Thomas Rhett took selfies with dozens of fans cell phones and Jason Aldean capped off the night with a fantastic show and theatrics including colored lasers.

“It’s great to have Jason Aldean return for a second time and have another sell out at the Ford Center,” stated Executive Director, Scott Schoenike.
