thomas rhett, “bring the bar to you” tour
Seeing Thomas Rhett has been on my concert bucket list for a long time now. I’ve been a huge fan of his since he released his EP in 2012. Rhett brought his Bring The Bar To You tour to Irvine, California, with special guests Conner Smith and Parker McCollum.

Conner had a ton of talent, and he was a really good performer. I definitely think a headlining tour is in the near future for him. Everyone there loved him.
Parker McCollum performed next; he sounded great live, but I was hoping he would have entertained the crowd more. Don’t get me wrong, he was great to see live, but Conner and Thomas both have really great stage presence.
Parker McCollum’s Setlist:
Wait Outside

Stoned

Thomas came on, and you can always get a feel for the concert when the intro happens, and I knew right then and there I was going to be in for a great concert.

Thomas Rhett actually had a B stage closer to the back of the venue, but people sitting in the back swarmed the B stage, and we couldn’t see him. I am a huge fan of when artists do that, though.
He needed no visual effects or anything to make this show amazing. He was so genuine to the audience and signed anything fans threw on stage. He talked to the crowd a lot and really just put in so much effort into the show.
Venue: Five Point Amphitheater in Irvine, California. Love this venue!
Seats: We sat in Ter 303, row 10, seats 27 and 28. They weren’t terrible seats, but I would either get pit tickets again or just closer seats in general.
Parking: We made it into the venue and parked with ease, but coming out was a different story and pretty chaotic. A ton of people (including us) forgot where they parked, and the traffic from the parking lot to get out on the main highway took a while.
