Alan Jackson felt right at home in the land Down Under during his sold-out, six-date run that closed Saturday (3/12) in Brisbane. "I've flown over parts of the country that looked like Texas, Tennessee and the Northwest," Jackson says, comparing Melbourne to the Lone Star State and areas near Sydney to California wine country. He's obviously taken a shine to the continent and its people, and the feeling seems to be mutual.
"I've always heard great things about it, and everybody was right – it's a beautiful country and the people are really nice. The fans really love the kind of music I make." According to his camp, Aussie fans' love of Jackson's music showed on the overall Australian chart, on which his 34 Number Ones jumped 25 spots to No. 7 during his tour. AJ picks his tour back up stateside Friday (3/18) at the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo, where he'll be inducted into the Star Trail Of Fame for attracting more than one million fans to the event since his 1992 debut.
