Jason Aldean Played for More than 110,000 Fans over the Weekend

Greenroom PRJason Aldean played for more than 110,000 fans over the weekend between his headlining show in Chicago and his two co-headlining shows with Kenny Chesney at Target Field in Minneapolis. He's also got the #1 song at country radio this week with "Tonight Looks Good on You," which has turned into a real highlight of Jason's live shows.

He says, "Being able to look out into a stadium full of people and have them singing and swaying to this song has been a pretty cool thing the last two months."

Now, Jason is gearing up to rejoin Kenny for the first-ever headlining country show at The Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California. Going into that show with a #1 hit is reason enough for Jason to throw a big celebration after the concert.

"We've never really needed much of an excuse to throw down backstage or get a little bit rowdy," Jason says, "but I have a feeling the party might be bigger than usual this weekend in Pasadena."
