Live Review : Jason Aldean + Florida Georgia Line at Hordern Pavilion, Sydney – March 9, 2016
Review and photos by Peter Coates
“My favourite colour is John Deere Green” (1994 – Jason Aldean)
This was not country music as we normally understand it. Yes there were large numbers of guys in jeans, check shirts and cowboy hats, and hordes of girls in denim shorts and boots, but both these acts are modern country rock, with attitude and edge, and clearly have a massive fanbase in Australia.

Hailmary live and breath it. The blood, sweat and tears, the denim and leather, the wall of sound. Stand in front of this band when they play and you cant help but get moving!

Review by Natasha Wyborn
Like wow, a clear day, thirty plus degree heat, good wine, and a record 10,000 crowd.

This event proved a smash, selling out within days of going on sale. An additional 2000 tickets were made available courtesy of a new makeshift stand. The theme for the day was interesting with 5 bands, all from different music categories including college rock to psychedelic punk and the result was spectacular.
