You forgot Toby Keith
Thanks for reviewing the list – he performed in 2001 and still holds the single-day attendance record!
Loved David Lee Roth in ’94 epic!
I would love for you to bring back BLAKE SHELTON.
Blake Shelton is probably too expensive of an artist to book for a fair like this.
Please update this list! You don’t have 2015 on this list yet. Thanks.
Thanks for the reminder, list updated! Scotty McCreery, Gloriana, The Guess Who and The Swon Brothers all put on a great show last year with great attendance and positive reviews. We strive to find the best entertainment for the dollar while keeping the admission price affordable. Looking forward to another outstanding year!
Dierks Bentley and Justin Moore have never been to the DCF, would LOVE to see them there!
Jake Owen was AWESOME! would love it if he was there again!! Really excited to see Justin Moore this year when he is at the DCF!!! Luke Bryan is awesome to see in concert! Would love to see Jason Aldean there. I saw Jerrod Niemann…he was pretty boring especially since he’s not all that popular. He didn’t have much of a crowd compared to Jake Owen who had performed the night before. I would love to see Brantley Gilbert again…he was at summerfest but it would be awesome if he performed at the DCF.
They don’t bring such huge acts to these small county fairs. Montgomery Gentry may be huge, but not so huge that they can’t book them at this fair. Craig Morgan, etc may be high on the totem pole, but they’re not huge stars, so they good enough for small fairs.
