What a crew.
Jelly Roll is off the road for the year, wrapping up his Beautifully Broken tour last month and then throwing his cell phone into the river after his final stop of the tour in Nashville last month.
But when you’re as famous as Jelly Roll, it’s hard to stay completely off the grid.
Earlier this week, the country music superstar spent the evening hanging out at Kid Rock’s downtown Nashville bar alongside some of his famous friends: Comedians Tony Hinchcliffe and Bert Kreischer, as well as Kid Rock himself. And apparently the urge to get back on stage was just too much for Jelly Roll.
At one point in the evening, the singer took the stage, joining the house band Hippies & Cowboys, to perform his hit #1 single “Save Me.”
And then he called up his friends to join him for a little southern rock.
We’ve already learned recently that Hinchcliffe can rock out on the drums, after he joined Jelly during a recent show in Austin, Texas and hopped behind the drum set to perform Lynyrd Skynyrd’s “Simple Man.”
So once again, Tony picked up his drumsticks while Bert Kreischer…well, took off his shirt, which is what he usually does. And then they called Kid Rock to the stage to join them for a crowd-thrilling performance of “Simple Man” as well as the Marshall Tucker Band’s “Can’t You See.”
You never know who you’re going to see on Broadway on a random Wednesday.
Of course this is just the latest celeb sighting in downtown Nashville. Kid Rock is a frequent guest at the bar bearing his name, and often hops up on stage to join the band and perform for the packed crowds.
And Eric Church has also become somewhat of a regular at his new downtown Nashville bar, Chief’s. Of course Church has been performing at his bar for his 23-show To Beat the Devil residency. But once he’s done with the show, he often decides to spend some time hanging out in the bar with fans, either in the honky tonk or the piano bar, and often treats the crowd to an encore performance from the Chief himself.
It’s definitely one of the cooler parts about living or visiting Nashville. I don’t make it down to Broadway very often these days, but it’s not entirely uncommon to see your favorite country artists hanging out down there on a random weeknight.
In fact, one of the coolest moments I’ve had since I moved to Nashville was getting to see Alan Jackson perform at his own Broadway bar, AJ’s Good Time Bar, a few years ago. It was after he played a show in Nashville, so I had a feeling that he may stop in his bar afterwards. (And by that I mean I had a friend who tipped me off).
But getting to see one of my favorite artists play such a small stage, in his own bar, was something that you don’t get anywhere else.
For all of its problems, there are still some things that are pretty cool about Nashville. Like when Jelly Roll, Tony Hinchcliffe, Bert Kreischer and Kid Rock decide to sing Lynyrd Skynyrd with the band on a random Wednesday night.
