Concert: December 31, 2017: Hershey, PA



Chocolate Town Square
Hershey, PA
December 31, 2017

Kris and band return to Hershey, PA (first place I ever saw them play back in 2010!) for a free New Year's Eve celebration. Their set will end just before the clock strikes midnight.

Updated 1/5/2018: Happy New Year! Cold but that didn't keep the people of Hershey from turning out and taking quick videos, photos and giving FULL SET LIST (THANK YOU) before frostbite set in! For that they will earn #gavegoodlist. :)

Somethin' About Christmas Tour: December 21, 2017: Tampa, FL

Kris brings the holiday tour south to Tampa to this intimate venue in Ybor City. If you can get to this show, I would - smallest venue of the tour and it will feel like he's doing a holiday show in your home!  So sorry I wasn't able to make it to this show but a family event kept me from making a trip down to my vacation place near there.

Right now I've got a fantastic interview and some fun photos linked. I just realized from the photo the venue posted that Kris and band basically have gotten to Christmas decorate almost every night this month! No videos yet.

Somethin' About Christmas Tour: December 19, 2017: Nashville, TN

The tour isn't over yet, but Kris makes a quick stop in his current home of Nashville. I bet the kids will come!

Updated 12/20/2017: Not quite at DC or Boston sharing levels yet, but Nashville for once actually did have some media! Some really good pictures and mini-videos. And we did have an attempted streamer who got busted, sadly. But keep it up, Nashville, sharing is caring!

Somethin' About Christmas Tour: December 18, 2017: Chicago, Illinois

I was kind of wondering on the promo for this one since I kept seeing people angsty that Kris isn't playing Chicago on this tour. He is! Link above for tickets! In fact, this show is coming close to a sell out and I have recently seen some promotion from the venue. 

Updated 1/1/2018: Chicago is always one of those cities that understands sharing with fellow fans! They're on track for #gavegoodlist. Some nice photos inside and we're getting some good videos too! Please give the videos a like as you watch them! Added a review from Concert Katie too.

After a week off, the tour hits the road for one last week in the south, starting with Kris' original home base in Arkansas.

Updated 12/23/17: I've got some promo linked (thanks to @ISBinLA for finding it!) and a few pictures and mini-IG vand Facebook videos, plus most exciting for me, Kris' manager actually put a picture of the set list, sadly on IG stories, but it's a picture! Plus now Arkansas has finally earned #gavegoodlist thanks to Amanda (Elmo)'s efforts! Her videos are now embedded inside the post.

Somethin' About Christmas Tour: December 7, 2017: Washington, DC

Ticket and info link - hope to see you there tonight!

Kris and Marie bring the tour to Washington, DC. Marie is from Shenandoah country in Northern Virginia so this will be close to a hometown show for her. And DC is always a great city for Kris. I will be going to this show.

A little promo after the break with the expected set list. As is typical with DC, we'll have a lot of media even before the show starts!

Updated 12/16/2017: What a great show! Don't miss it if it comes to your town. More thoughts to come inside the post. Along with videos and photos! Of course DC will earn #gavegoodlist even if it was a flatter crowd than we normally are - lots going on in our nation's capitol has kind of tampered down the fun after hours in general sadly. I hope Kris knows those of us who came out absolutely loved the show! Check out all our videos and photos after the break!

Ticket  and info link

After a couple of days up in New England and a couple of days off, Kris, Marie and the band head south to the mid-atlantic, starting with this show in Wilmington, Delaware.

Updated December 8: As of this evening, very little media from this show. Not a surprise. For some reason this area is the weak link for fandom on the east coast. There are a few photos and mini-videos with what was probably the set list. Anyway, moving on to DC which was a very different story!

Kris and company take the Christmas show up to New York. We've got a bunch of videos coming in for this show too! So please check back; I'll update post as I find them. I'm assuming the set list stayed the same as opening night (but if he changed it up, please let me know).

The Somethin' About Christmas tour got underway in Annapolis, MD and wow, it looks like a great way to celebrate the holidays! A definite festive retro air from the photos and videos. Plus the first live version of Just Like Snow which is a don't miss. And a new Monster mash-up, with the Grinch song. Kris also joined opener Marie Miller to live premiere their duet on her song, Wasting Away.

All of this after the break!
(Updated 12/04/2017 - Much video added including Periscopes of the whole show. )
