| Alan Jackson took the Coliseum stage in April 2009, sporting his signature
faded blue jeans, button-down shirt and cowboy hat. He set the tone for
the show with his opening number "Gone Country" and entertained the
5,600 fans in attendance with his hits new and old, including "Chasing
That Neon Rainbow," "Tall Tall Trees," "Don't Rock the Jukebox," and "Good
Time." But it was "Where Were You (When the World Stopped Turning)," the
song he penned after the September 11 attacks, that earned him a standing
ovation.
"The Dominion Post" described his performance of "Chattahoochee" as the "climax of the concert." Jackson ended his show with "Where I Come From" while scenes pf familiar Morgantown restaurants, landmarks and hangouts rolled across the video screens on the stage. After the crowd's enthusiastic response, he returned to the stage for an encore of "Crazy About a Mercury." |
