Alan Jackson took the stage one last time Saturday night, and Nashville gave him a send off worthy of a legend. Saturday night at Nissan Stadium, 55,000 fans gathered to watch Alan Jackson close the book on a 35-year touring career. The show was called Last Call: One More for the Road, The Finale, and it lived up to every word. The evening started with a little drama nobody planned for \u2013 lightning rolled through Nashville forcing a full stadium evacuation right before showtime. But the weather cleared, and when Jackson finally walked out at 9:25, he did what he\u2019s always done. He kept it real. \u201cWe\u2019re not going to dwell on all this sad \u2018last show\u2019 stuff,\u201d he told the crowd. \u201cI\u2019m not dead.\u201d He joked that it had started to feel a bit like a funeral, watching all these stars sing his songs from heaven. \u201cTwo-step up and down the aisle, have a good time, have a drink,\u201d he said. \u201cWe\u2019ll try to play something you like.\u201d Before Jackson took the stage, the first two hours belonged to the artists he inspired. Luke Combs, Carrie Underwood, Miranda Lambert, Eric Church, Luke Bryan, Lainey Wilson, Cody Johnson, Riley Green, Jon Pardi, Lee Ann Womack and more all covered Jackson\u2019s catalog. His great niece Carlisle Wright, whom Jackson personally invited to make her Opry debut just weeks earlier, opened the show. Then came the man himself with a 24-song set that covered decades of hits. George Strait walked out to join him for \u201cDesignated Drinker\u201d and \u201cMurder on Music Row.\u201d He closed the main set with \u201cChattahoochee\u201d one final time before an encore of \u201cMercury Blues\u201d and \u201cWhere I Come From.\u201d The whole thing is being filmed for an NBC special later this year. But for the people who were there, Saturday night in Nashville was something no TV broadcast will ever fully capture.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m Brailey, and that\u2019s your Music City Minute.<\/p>\n
