First, I agree with the 1st 2 reviewers, this is a great concert by Trace Adkins, on the Austin City Limits TV show. Trace is a CMT Award Winner. This concert was filmed on September 14, 1997. It includes some of Trace's best songs, from his early career as an American Country Music Star. He has a great band backing him on this DVD. The total running time is only about 56 minutes, but every performance is simply, very enjoyable. I only wish it were longer, but I'm very thankful, for this DVD.
Trace has had a very interesting & remarkable life. He's been through a lot of tough things, and has had some very remarkable experiences. I think all of this, has made him the great singer-songwriter, that he is today. He's for real, his songs are about real life experiences.
Trace is very patriotic, and has performed for our troops, many, many times.
Trace is from a small town, in Northwest Louisiana, named Sarepta. There is a sign there stating that Sarepta is the "Hometown of Country Music Star, Trace Adkins". They are proud of him, and so am I. Trace stated out singing in a Gospel Quartet. Also, Trace played Football at my alma mata, Louisiana Tech University, in Ruston, Louisiana. Trace studied Petroleum Engineering, at Louisiana Tech. LA.Tech, is where I earned my M.B.A. degree. Trace is a big fellow, 6'6", and he has worked on offshore drilling rigs in Louisiana, and Texas. He has also been a finalist on the Donald Trump's TV show, "The Celebrity Apprentice". He has a wealth of experience, just do a "google" search on him and you'll see.
