What an incredible Unplugged, Unscripted and Unforgettable 10th anniversary Stars & Guitars show we had Monday night!

We can't thank our KML fans enough for making this the biggest and best Stars & Guitars we've had yet.

A long day started at 7 a.m. with members of our team getting started, working with the sound, stage and lights crew to get things started for the day. Mountains of setup and logistics were worked out through the day to get the show ready for all of you.

Our six stars - Michael Ray, Jackson Dean, Lauren Alaina, Joe Nichols, Russell Dickerson and Parker McCollum - arrived throughout the afternoon to get ready for the show. Poor Michael Ray even had to make a trip to urgent care when he wasn't feeling well, but he powered through and was incredible.

Russell Dickerson helped get the night started with a surprise performance in UPS Store Sponsor VIP Lounge, and then it was showtime for everybody else.

Megan Kenny from the Fayetteville Symphony Orchestra gave us an incredible performance of the National Anthem on the violin, and then Don Chase & Sarah kicked the show off.

The night was filled with incredible moments (including this must-watch moment from Lauren Alaina and a special fan), and there aren't enough words to describe how amazing the night was.

Thank you to John Hiester Chrysler Dodge Jeep and John Hiester Chevrolet for making the night possible. And thanks to the rest of our sponsors, for helping keep the best concert in Fayetteville going year after year.

We can't wait to see everybody for our 11th year, next November 2023.
