This is a photo from just a short few hours ago. I wanted to post a photo of what this festival was supposed to be about and not give this horrible person the recognition he so desperately wanted. I am incredibly saddened by tonight’s events and while I’m thankful that me and all of my band and crew are alive and unharmed, I can’t help but hurt for all the people who weren’t as fortunate and the pain their loved ones must feel. Keep Vegas, these fans, and all of the country music community in your thoughts and prayers, we could sure use it tonight. Thank you.

We played Route 91 in Vegas the night before last. It was one of my favorite shows and festivals to be on. We were all singing. I’m in shock over this unfair, senseless tragedy and heartbroken for the lives taken too soon. #PrayForVegas

I was raised here. I just came from here on tour. I got friends texting me with this bullshit. I hope everyone I know and everyone I don’t is okay.
