Justin Moore is headlining his own Outlaws Like Me Tour these days, but before his name was on the marquee, he had a chance to open tours for the likes of Rascal Flatts, Brad Paisley, Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert. He learned a lot from each tour headliner — but one lesson has stuck with him .

“Every time I’ve went out and been an opening act playing for twenty minutes, every headliner made me feel like I was a very important part of their tour and what they were doing,” he said. “I think when you treat people with respect they tend to give it right back to you. They go out and put on a great show and wanna do like we’ve wanted to do over the years. They wanna go out there and put on a heck of a show, obviously, for themselves, but they also want people to leave there going, “Man. What a great tour that Justin’s having.”

Justin Moore will launch his first headlining tour tonight in Pikeville, Kentucky. He’ll be joined on his Outlaws Like Me Tour by special guests Dustin Lynch and Jon Pardi. Justin knows Dustin well and is excited to hang out with him on the road.

“We’ve gotten to know each other over the years and he’s opened a lot of shows for us,” Justin said of Dustin. “That’ll be an easy, good fit for us. He’s having a lot of success right now with his first single being a top five record and I think his second single is headed that direction too so we’re fortunate to have him out with us.” Continue Reading

Justin Moore and wife Kate are the proud parents of two daughters — Ella, who just turned three; and Kennedy, who is a year old. Justin, who was an only child, is excited that his children will grow up with siblings. While he’d like a son one day, he’s also okay if he remains outnumbered in the household.

“I would be fine with all girls if they were all healthy or all boys, it doesn’t matter to me,” he said. “I’d obviously like to have at least one boy and if the rest were girls, that’s fine. As long as they’re healthy and we can have some more, I’ll be happy.” Continue Reading

Justin Moore has cut his teeth opening shows for some of the biggest names in country music such as Rascal Flatts, Brad Paisley, Blake Shelton and most recently, Eric Church.

His first headlining tour, Outlaws Like Me, will kick off March 14 in Pikeville, Kentucky with Dustin Lynch and Jon Pardi along as special guests.

“I’m excited to be headlining our first tour,” Justin said. “Over the last few years I have been out with some of the best artists in our genre and I have learned so much from each of them. I’m ready to take everything they have taught me to build our show. It’s going to be a blast. I can’t wait!” Continue Reading

Jon Pardi is looking for the ultimate #PardiAnimal. He’ll celebrated the “predicted” end of the world on December 21 with an End of the World Party in Chicago at Joe’s on Weed Street and wants to give one fan a trip for two to Windy City to witness it.

“We’ve named this the Year of the Pardi and if the world is really going to end that day, I can’t think of a better place to be than Joe’s on Weed,” he said. “The Pardi Animals have been a big part of Year of the Pardi, so of course I want them to be at Joe’s with me before the world ends!” Continue Reading

Jon Pardi had a CMA Awards to remember even though he wasn’t nominated for an award. Not only did he ‘accidentally’ crash the Red Carpet, he got to spend the night cruising around Nashville in a red Bentley, which left him speechless.

“We were just dumbfounded,” he said. “We were walking around the car, looking inside of it, and we were like, ‘Are you sure this is ours all night? This is ours all night, so I can put my stuff in here?’ And he was like, ‘Yes, it’s yours all night.’ So, it was my ride home, it was everything.”

Jon wasn’t nominated and wasn’t scheduled as a presenter so he wasn’t credentialed to walk the red carpet. He ended up walking it anyway thanks to his driver for the night and a security detail, who happened to be a fan after seeing him perform at the Capitol Street Party. Continue Reading

If the Mayans’ prediction proves true, Jon Pardi will go out partying with the ‘End of the World Pardi’ at Joe’s on Weed Street in Chicago on December 21. Jon and his band recently played a show at Joe’s to give fans a taste of what’s to come. But what did the group get into when they had some down time pre-show?

Jon and his band set out to explore Chicago and took on the subway and a Cubs game. There were also plenty of jokes to go around, most at Jon’s tour manager’s expense! Watch Jon’s latest ‘My Name Is Jon’ webisode after the jump to see what happened when the Pardi Bus hit Chicago. Continue Reading

Frankie Ballard and Jon Pardi have teamed up for the Tie One On Tour, which kicks off October 4 in San Diego, California. Miss Willie Brown will be along as a special guest. The tour runs through December.

“I have always wanted to do an old school package tour,” Frankie said. “That’s what all my musical heroes did back in the day. Piled into two Cadillacs and hit the highway!
