Portland, OR

Hey guys,

I cannot believe it is already mid-September, can you guys? It is hard to imagine that the tour is starting to wind down in the US, and start up in Canada and Australia.

Today we were in Portland, OR. This part of the country is beautiful this time of year, I love being out on the West Coast for a bit.

Tonight we had Little Big Town opening up for Keith which was really awesome. Keith and Little Big Town sang "Seven Bridges Road" by The Eagles together and it was incredible. They harmonized beautifully. I am getting ready to post this video in KU Tube so be sure to check there for it!!

Well, time to load out and head back to the bus for our trip to Tacoma. See ya there.

-Jeff

London On Oct 1 2009

The concert ended over 5 hours ago and I am still pumped and amazed. Don't know when I'll sleep; but when I do, I'll be seeing the concert over and over again. Need to make a stop in Hamilton. I don't mind driving the two hours; but it would give me another chance to see fantastic artists!!

Keith Rox The Peg

This was far and away the most fun I have had at a concert. It is so easy to see that this guy loves performing. He had so much fun on stage tonight as everyone in the sold out MTS Centre witnessed. It was a complete party atmosphere; 2 1/2 hours where we could all forget our troubles and have a good time. From those on the floor to those in the rafters - he blew us all away!

Saskatoon Luvs KU

Went to both shows and it is clear - Keith is a country god in Saskatoon. People leaving were saying it was the best concert they had EVER seen. One review said it was magical. It was spellbinding. You are a pied piper and we would have followed you anywhere. Never have I seen an artist pour out heart and soul like you for every song. Seven Bridges Road and Til Summer were highlights for me. Six years is too long. One year is too long. Took a bus from Regina with my friends and would do it again tomorrow. Come back SOON.

Thank you so much!!

I am not sure if Keith looks at this or not but I wanted to say thank you!! I was at the concert last night in Saskatoon and it was amazing. My mom and I were celebrating her being 5 years in remission for cancer and it was the best way to celebrate. I also wanted to let you know that I think you are so great for dedicating a song to your wife, it was touching and heartfelt. Thanks again and I can't wait to see you again in concert.

Our wedding song Part 2

OK, obviously I don't know how to blog but that's ok, I hope you can ask Keith to dedicate "Only you can love me this way" to us. Thank you again!!

Our Wedding Song

Hi there, We are so excited. We are heading from our little town in Northern Ontario called Manitouwadge to the big city of Winnipeg to see Keith's show this Saturday night!! I am hoping he can dedicate "Only you can love me this way" to my husband and I as that was our wedding song May 16th, 2009. We are travelling 700 miles to see this amazing artist who I have been a fan of for years now. Is it Saturday yet!!! Thank you for your time. Tracy and Jim Moffat.

cma awards

I have become a KU groupie!!! I went to the Huntsville, AL and Nashville shows. I have gotten 17th row seats to the All for the Hall show and now I just got tickets to the CMA awards in Nov!!! If Keith doesn't win entertainer of the year I will be soooo upset! He deserves it more than anybody does! Love your music!!!

Portland Concert

Hi Jeff, I was at the Portland concert with my husband, and apparently we ended up on the big screen while Keith sang "Only you can love me this way" I was so caught up in the moment dancing with my man that i missed my moment on the screen. We told the kids about it and they thought it was cool. Would love to catch show them the Mommmy and Daddy video of that captured moment but cant find it anywhere. How impossible would it be to have a copy of that for my special memories. Or maybe it can be posted like the other videos on his website. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Watch out for Moose

I'm new to country music thx to my gf. My first concert is going to be this thursday in Saskatoon. Looking forward to it because I want to propose to my lady at this concert. Have been trying to get in touch with the right ppl to do something special for this, but it turns out I don't know the right ppl. I guess just being there is good enough so plz drive safe and keep your highs on.

Long road trips and defying gravity

I've been driving a lot lately and will be driving to Toronto for Keiths upcoming show. Listening to Defying Gravity is my saving grace during those long trips by myself. I can't wait until the 3rd of October.. I've seen some of the tour videos you've been posting and Im getting so pumped! Wish I was right there on tour behind the scenes rockin out too :)

Calgary Show Sat. Nite

Epic show! What an extraordinary entertainer and guitarist. I had no idea what an incredible talent lies under this C&W genre performer. Keith Urban has moved to one of my most favourite live performances and I am adding all of his work to my audio collection. Thanks for an incredible show in Calgary and please come back soon.
