Boot Barn Hall (Gainesville)

Sara sounded fantastic and put on a great show with a set list that had a good mix of old, new, and unexpected covers.

5 stars just ain’t enough! Mae puts on a great show. Top notch vocals, great stage present and just sweet as can be. She tries to greet every fan. She’s the real deal that country music needs! Seen her live 4 times and can’t wait until next time.

I gave 5 stars because it wasn’t Zach fault but the address of where the concert was Wasn’t where it was said to be and I missed the concert. Very disappointed

Great music, great band and a very good entertainer. Saxophone player was awesome! I had a great time! I really enjoyed the show!!

Awesome! He’s Drake White! Nothing else has to be said!!!

James Gregory is still at 77 years young the funniest man in America. Good show Boot Hall @ Bourbon Bros...hope to see more live comedy on your schedule in the future.

Great concert by talented musicians at a great venue! Our first time at Boot Barn Hall, but will definitely be back!

Always a great show - they are wonderful entertainers. Nice to be in a venue with good acoustics so you can actually hear the lyrics.

We’ve been diehard fans for 30 years, since their beginning! These guys haven’t missed a beat over the years!! Still energetic onstage, and engaging with the audience. The audience spanned from us original fans to the newbies who have discovered their music more recently. If they are ever performing anywhere near us, we’ll be there!! As for the venue, it was our first time there as it is a couple hours from where we live, but we would definitely come back. Good sound, good layout, good food. (Photo is only one of many.)

Acoustics at this venue aren’t the greatest.

Best concert I have ever seen!!!!

My husband and I had a fantastic time! The show and venue was amazing!! We can’t wait to see him again as he has so many songs that were not played. Loved, Loved, Loved the show!!!

FABULOUS performer Love her interaction with audience and sing along! Great venue, Thank you Susy!

What a fun night! Suzy and her band are awesome and played a great mix of old and new songs. She commented on how good the music sounds in Bootbarn Hall. We enjoyed a few acoustic numbers at the end, which capped off a perfect evening. Suzy has such a pretty, clear voice - we just love her. The fellas in her band are awesome, too. They make a fantastic team ❤️

Suzy Bogguss: 7/21/23 “Anytime these days I get the opportunity to see a 90’s Country favorite for first time LIVE I do my best to capitalize and tonight was no exception. The venue itself being brand new opening just last month solidified my decision to take the hour and fifty minute drive into Gainesville GA. The 300 seat Boot Barn Hall set up with tables and chairs in a slightly smaller scale arrangement as City Winery Atlanta with spectacular sound did not disappoint. My table second row center stage afforded a direct view to the ACM/CMA Grand Ole Opry member from Aledo Illinois. With 16 studio albums, 26 charted singles including 6 top 10’s the setlist was bound to include the majority of them. The show being the first of a 15 show set ending in November consisting of a few dates per month there was no set list to follow along with. The bare-bones stage set up had positions for the main artist center stage with support from Rob Price on standup bass to her right and Craig Smith on lead guitar to her left. A steeping cup of tea was placed on her chair by a tech 15 minutes prior to the show apparently to cool down. At 8 p.m. singer/songwriter Susan Kay Bogguss 66 took the stage for an hour and a half / 18 song set beginning with her #9 ‘Outbound Plane’. ‘I’m gonna start out with some songs I know and we’ll go from there, and y’all can please hold the tomatoes for later on’. Spoiler alert, there were NO tomatoes to be found on sight, everyone sang along all evening long! The opener was one of five songs to be performed intermittently throughout the evening taken from ‘Aces’ her 1991 breakout album. ‘There’s nothing more that touches my heart than when you sing along so please please feel free to have a big old hootenanny tonight.’ Her number #5 ‘Just Like The Weather’ followed with her #9 ‘Aces’ in the wings. ‘I play in certain regions and people think i’ve retired a long time ago and I’m like “No I’m still out here doing it”’. In her own brand of straightforward style she moved right into two Haggard standards ’Today I Started Loving You’ and ‘Let’s Chase Each Other Around The Room’. Inheriting her daddy’s ’68 Dodge Polara at the tender age of sixteen which also included a host of 8-Tracks she began a journey solidifying her love for the classics. After some outstanding Haggardesque guitar work from her left sidekick band intros were an early on must, ‘they’re both very interesting cats’. First was her bassist Rob, ‘This feller over here he’s from Whales. Yes, me and Craig we’re just from normal human parents’. Rob’s stepson is Marty Stuarts bass player i.e. The Professor Chris Scruggs. Chris played in Suzy’s band prior to being a Superlative giving Rob an open invitation to fill the gap. Craig who’s been with her on guitar for nine years has played The Opry nearly 50 times and had been former member of Clay Walker’s band prior to. An experienced seaman from a from a seafaring family in Scotland he now resides in Nashville to further pursue his music career. Next up were a cover of Jerry Jeff Walker’s ’Night Rider’s Lament’ showcasing Suzy’s yodeling skillset and a brand new song from her forthcoming album ‘Too Late To Worry About That Now’. With Craig strapping on a B-bender Tele the tempo picked up with her #12 hit Ian Tyson ‘Someday Soon’ and her highest chart topper ‘Drive South’ a #2 blockaded only by Lori Morgan’s 1992 #1 ‘What Part Of No’. The combo of his Telecaster and her ‘Trigger’ a well worn Taylor made for a near perfect rendition of CSN’s ‘Teach Your Children’. Craig’s incredible string bending matched Jerry Garcia’s pedal steel just as well as their harmonies matched that of the classic rock trio. ‘Letting Go’ and ‘Hey Cinderella’ #6 and #5 respectively rounded out the regular set Suzy adding to the lyrics ‘does the shoe fit you know’ the words ‘and how bout those size 27 waist jeans’. The encore was a rendition of the traditional ‘Red River Valley’ where they unplugged singing and playing acoustic while utilizing the venue acoustics to their most extreme level. With a final yodel and Patsy Montana’s ‘I Want To Be A Cowboy’s Sweetheart the evening wound down to it’s final conclusion. I didn’t realize just how many covers her hits actually were, taking away the covers and traditional arrangements the entire evening only featured 6 originals! Notably missing from the set was 1989’s #14 ‘Cross My Broken Heart’. Beginning her career as the first female artist featured at Dollywood through a 34 year career, her voice is still strong and her spirit alive keeping 90’s country on the airwaves and in our hearts!” Review and photo by DAve (Concert #802)

The Ricky Skaggs concert at The Boot Barn Hall in Gainesville , Ga was wonderful . I have always liked and enjoyed his music and then for him to talk about Jesus Christ was as they say , icing on the cake .

The concert was a special birthday present from a friend and my first time to see Ricky Skaggs 'live' - what a treat - I love the bluegrass and gospel they play. Ricky has a group of super musicians - great talent! We had a fantastic time!

Great time, Great venue 🪕🎻

Josh Turner did a fantastic job and his part of the show was great! The opening act was not very good. The problem was there was no where to sit! When we bought the tickets it never mentioned it was standing room only! The tickets sold were general admission with a picture of Boot Barn Hall with a dance floor, tables & chairs. The show was to start at 8 pm with the doors opening at 7 pm. Many people got there early hoping to get a table. Our group of 6 people felt very misled! Talking to many of the people around us, they felt the same way. We would not have bought tickets had we known we were going to stand around, packed in like sardines for 3 1/2 hours! There were tables and chairs upstairs for the sponsors, but you needed a VIP pass to go up there.

Always at the top The best country singer in the world 💜
