Country headliner Kenny Chesney warms up The Dame in downtown Lexington. Read Walter Tunis’ review and the story of the 350 fans braving the cold and sleet to see the singer’s first concert appearance of 2008 and one of seven club outings on his Keg in the Closet Tour.
last night was great! A jam session with KC. We froze outside and they should have let us in but other than that, it was awesome!
It was awesome!!!! I have seen him before but never been that close. We all may have pneumonia now but it was worth it. I don’t see why they couldn’t have opened the doors earlier since it was freezing rain and sleet outside.
Thank you, Kenny, for doing such a great thing for our downtown and thanks to The Dame for playing host.
Those who enjoyed the show, please SUPPORT RESPONSIBLE DOWNTOWN DEVELOPMENT; the Kenny show wouldn’t have happened had a 40-story hotel/office building (currently being proposed) been there instead of the thriving bars and restaurants that currently occupy that block. Oppose the eradication of our downtown nightlife!
