Grammy award-winning artist, Keith Urban, brought his Speed of Now Tour to Denver Friday night. Opening acts Ingrid Andress and Tyler Hubbard (of Florida Georgia Line), got the crowd warmed up before the lights dimmed, and Queen‘s “Bohemian Rhapsody” played. The crowd sang along until the lights cut out, and Urban’s silhouette, with raised guitar, appeared center stage. Urban promised–and delivered–“2 hours of a utopian existence for every single one of you.” Before launching into fan favorite “John Cougar, John Deere, John 3:16,” Urban said, “Everything going on outside this arena doesn’t exist. Celebrate life because it’s happening right now. This is your night.” Urban impressed with solid guitar solos and a lengthy catalog of songs that included cameo sneak-peeks from Pink and Carrie Underwood via the monitors during their duets, “One Too Many,” and “The Fighter,” respectively. He acknowledged some birthdays in the house, and even pulled an excited fan up to the stage after seeing her “26th show–you, me, selfie?” sign. Urban smiled, laughed, and engaged the crowd throughout his 2+ hour set, and gave a lucky fan a signed guitar! You don’t want to miss this tour!
