Any true fans of Keith Urban or his music were found in Cool Springs TN today!  The free acoustic concert Keith Urban performed at the Verizon Wireless on Mallory Lane in Franklin was outstanding.  Parking was not easy although there was plenty within a short walking distance. 

Woody’s Smokes and Brews did not allow people to park on their property.  A different tact was taken by Academy Sports and Outdoors next door (1915 Mallory Lane in Franklin TN) who graciously allowed people to park on their property.  Show your appreciation to Academy Sports, buy some stuff there and thank them for helping out their neighbor Verizon Wireless.

Around a thousand people attended the 2pm event in Cool Springs.  The police and Verizon Wireless employees did a great job keeping things running smooth.  The event started a little late and Keith ended up playing five songs, although only three songs had been planned.  The questions people asked Keith were mostly song requests.  It was nice because it allowed for people more people to interact with the music star and personalized the appearance for everyone who attended.

The weather almost didn’t cooperate, as a huge front was moving in from the West and the show finished just before the downpour started.  Fortunately no one was rained on, although several flashes of lightening appeared close to the end.  The Verizon Wireless store roped off the parking lot and kept all the press at the front of the property, allowing for an excellent vantage point to observe from.

Thanks to both Verizon Wireless and Keith Urban, for a much appreciated free afternoon concert in Cool Springs.
