Countdown to Bonnaroo: 13 Days – Artist of the Day: Kenny Rogers

24 May

Lucky 13 days away from being back at Bonnaroo and what better than picturing yourself in the middle of nowhere Tennessee to see the legend himself, Kenny Rogers.  I’ll raise my hand and say I never expected I’d get the chance to see him and now I am jumping for joy at the prospect of hearing “The Gambler” live!  I know, I know he has tons of hit songs and a career that has spanned more years than I have been alive but I for one am beyond excited about hearing a song I have had stuck in my head since I was little.  And let’s be candid, at 73 years old, how many more years is he going to perform.  So on the grand stage at the best music festival in the U.S., it shall be a memory worth savoring. Now who’s hungry for some rotisserie chicken from Kenny Rogers Roasters?! J

Must See Video: Kenny Rogers ft. The Roots – “The Gambler”

16 Mar

This is by far one of the coolest music performances ever; last night on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, Kenny Rogers performed “The Gambler” with The Roots! Click HERE to watch this amazing performance.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Jimmy Fallon is the best evening talk show around. With The Roots as his house band, the most magical music performances occur.
