Gary, Joe Don, and Jay just wrapped up their triumphant return to the road with the 21 date “Life Is A Highway Tour”. Of course, hitting just 21 cities meant that lots of fans would’ve had to make a really long road trip to see the band. And our local fans were in that boat.
Well, one of them will be on stage in Kansas City next weekend…and isn’t one of them better than none?
Jay DeMarcus, the band’s bass player, was announced as part of the celebrity line up for the 2025 Big Slick charity event. Big Slick is a weekend long fundraiser for the Childrens Mercy Hospital in Kansas City. It includes a celebrity softball game at Kauffman Stadium and a night of fun and entertainment. It’s hosted by KC natives Rob Riggle, Jason Sudekis, Heidi Gardner, Paul Rudd, David Koechner, and our favorite Wildcat fan Eric Stonestreet. DeMarcus joins a star-studded lineup of guests that includes Kevin Pollak, Kenan Thompson, Johnny Knoxville, Logan Mize…and a couple of football players you may have heard of: Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes.
