my favorite memories of kicks and Ronnie from a couple years ago when I was opening up for Brooks & Dunn at a festival and I got word that kicks and Ronnie wanted to see me and it was very important I walked into the dressing room and Ronnie says you can sit down and I did and I said you guys wanted to talk to me and Ronnie goes yes I'd like to show you my Taylor Swift impression it looks something like this I have a Taylor Swift impression this obvious doing it backstage where you run on stage a three minute ago but I don't think I have it now right if you have no you have no idea how important that moment was because in 20 years that's the only time I've ever seen him messes Hera there's an all-star lineup of your friends waiting in the wings to sing some of your greatest hits and I know I'm looking forward to singing my favorite Brooks & Dunn song I'd like to welcome to the stage six-time Academy of Country Music Award winner Keith Urban [Applause] so much this is a huge honor for me too I'm gonna tell you guys a quick story back in 1997 we were playing a little place called Jack's guitar bar which is a very small funky little shag pile beer soaked hole in the wall joint and Kix said heard about our band and thought he'd come and check us out and him and bar that you and Barbara I think had been at a pretty fancy dinner so that would dress to the nines and they'd show up about halfway through our set and they'd walk in and there's like one seat left place honey holds you know 20 people and so he gives Barbara the chair and he sits down on this filthy shag pile beer soaked carpet right in front of us and stayed there for the whole set and came up afterwards and said I love to take you guys out on to with us and I thought he was completely hammered and I was he was yeah he eats sure enough Trudi his word which kicks really is man he called us up and they took us out and we did about four or five shows opening for them and it was just such a huge honor for us to do that but we used to do a lot of cover songs at the end of our set and one of the songs used to do is this one we're going to play for you right now [Applause] [Music] channel [Music] nataly's

we were all on it and it was Kellie Pickler and Blake Shelton than myself and y'all and tons of other acts in them I remember it was late and we gonna knock at the door and I like kicks and Ronnie are partying y'all want to come like really so Kelly and Blake and I were on my bus just sitting there bored we went over and uh we were we were just excited to be there because we're all new and we're just we're all in all of you guys and uh Kelly got a hold of the iPod which is bad and she started playing I kissed a girl by Katy Perry and I remember I was up on the couch and I think you were on the couch with me kids and they were like head-banging rocking out to Katy Perry and I was like Brooks & Dunn likes Katy Perry this rocks I just brief interruption we were standing on the couch together anyway you and Kelly are great dancers by the way Blake not so much I know anyway thank you for being so sweet and so tonight I chose the next song because it reminds me where I'm from from

me all the time who do I listen to and answer them with three short words Brooks and Dunn honestly so on one hand is easy for me to choose a song to perform tonight because I know most of you hits by heart and home the other hand is very difficult because there's so many to pick from but I had to decide and I think I'm pretty lucky because I ended up with one of the most memorable Brooks & Dunn songs I'm gonna do little boot scoot [Applause] [Music] I'm in the country pass and anything howdy [Music] jumping every night son go they got whiskey we're out of both [Applause] [Music] I hit the

rapping skills on the hill bellied alive anyway that was all kind of BS but it turned out to be I was supposed to find the singer pick out the man who could come up here and do just this to one of

audience these guys were out on the road with me for a little while and they didn't do this next song in their show so I decided to do it in mine you got you know if we can kind of recreate what we

tour the Brooks and gun Ronnie invited us to come and hang out on his bus which just so you know has a better sound system than any of our houses and at the time their song believe was just hitting it really big now I have a tattoo on my left wrist that says believe and ronnie was absolutely convinced that I got the tattoo because of the song even though I had it long before the song was written yeah but not to fear what Ronnie doesn't know is that I do have a tattoo that I got just for him [Applause] [Music] and I also say don't worry Taylor Swift eat your heart out if I could make him shake his hair every day baby [Applause] I got one for you too baby but it's just in a place we can't show on family television [Applause] jennipher not write all of our own materials so it was really important to us that we do a song that y'all wrote together and Ronnie started writing this one apparently on a cocktail napkin and handed it to Kix to finish we've done that that napkin absolutely

think that's gonna get one of us in trouble so I just kind of decided not to tell the stories so instead I'm gonna do a song tonight that was written by kicks and Ronnie with Bob Shapiro kicks and Ronnie were performing at a fair and behind the stage there was this huge wheat field stretching as far as the eye could see and that inspired them to write an adventure about a girl who hooks up with a football player there's more to the story but instead of talking about it I'm gonna sing it to you it's called Indian summer [Applause] [Music] [Applause] Oh [Music] all the hard [Music] - very me
