We all know that Luke Bryan is a born-and-raised country boy from small town Georgia. So any opinion he might have on other country places would hold more weight. But…upstate New York?

Luke recently performed in Bethel, NY…a small town 100 miles from the Big Apple, but with a vibe much more similar to here in the Little Apple. First off, Bethel is where the original Woodstock music festival was held back in 1969.

At a recent show at the Bethel Performing Arts Center, Luke told the crowd that “(Bethel) is the countriest place we’ve ever played”. The basis for that declaration? Apparently Luke’s son had a hankering for some fried chicken. As Luke tells it, “‘Well son, let’s Google some fried chicken. There ain’t no fried chicken within 45 minutes of here. So when you’re 45-minutes from the nearest fried chicken, you’re in a country place.”
