When Jon Pardi listens to an album, he commits. He “popped on a pair” of snakeskin-patterned bell bottoms while listening to Lainey Wilson’s new album . . . “Bell Bottom Country”. And to prove it, he posted a video of himself wearing them while working on his ranch. With Lainey’s “Heart Like A Truck” playing in the background he says . . . “Ever since I saw Lainey’s bell bottoms, I knew I had to get me some. I like the way they blow in the wind. They’re real good around the ranch for checking fences, fixing fences, driving tractors, opening gates, feeding cows.”
Tim McGraw represented his father, the late Tug McGraw, at Tuesday’s World Series game. The camera found him wearing his dad’s Phillies jersey, and they put it on the jumbotron. The crowd went nuts. Tug was on the mound and got the last out when the Phillies won the series in 1980. Tim went to Tuesday’s game with his wife Faith Hill and their three daughters, Gracie, Maggie, and Audrey. Tug died from brain cancer in 2004, and Tim has been a huge supporter of the American Cancer Society ever since.
Reba McEntire’s doctor put her on vocal rest, so she’s postponing this weekend’s shows. Columbus, Ohio has been moved to December 2nd . . . Raleigh, North Carolina will be December 3rd . . . and Indianapolis is now December 16th. Tickets will be honored for the new dates. Reba is scheduled to perform at next Wednesday’s CMAs, but it’s probably too soon to tell if she’ll be well enough to do it.
