"I ain't really happy," sings Gary Allan on "Get Off on the Pain," the down-home masterstroke that begins and provides the name for his new MCA Nashville collection, "until the sky starts driving rain." Unhesitatingly frank, mercilessly guitar-crazed, it's the rocked-out country confession of a smart guy drawn to what the rest of the world calls wrong roads and long shots, or complains of as aching bones and stubbornness, or — as Allan sings in a spectacular stretch of drawn-out soulful vowels — underestimates as dark horses. And as the California-born superstar releases his eighth studio album, it's about the most Gary Allan piece anyone could imagine.

I basically went to the concert to see chuck wicks and he was awesome! Gary Allan was great too, it was an awesome concert! :)
The show was great as usual once you got passed the fact that you couldn't really hear what he was singing. The band was way too loud and drowned out most of his voice whether talking or singing. I'll still keep paying to hear him whenever I get a chance.
i thought that Gary Allan was pretty awesome but Chuck Wicks was not so great in concert...
I can't wait till he comes to my area again i will for sure be there
Gary Allan was alright. He tended to go to the opposite side of the stage most of the time.
It was insane. It was the best concert I ever went to. Cant wait to go again
The concert was amazing i really loved it and Garry Allan looked amazing too!
It was a very hot summer night... and I got way hotter when Gary walked out! He and his band gave an outstanding performance for using various instruments that they were not familiar with! It was aswome and totally worth the money.
This show was one of the best concerts I have ever been to!
Concerts at the State Fair of Missouri can't be beat. Gary was great!
Despite the evening starting with rainy weather, the show went on. Gary Allen was awesome and sang for almost 2 full hours. I would definitely go see him again if he's anywhere near me, and would recommend his concert to everyone!!
I thought the concert was great we had great seats and its something my kids and I will never forget .
Now I dig my country music and this concert was fun, it just wasn't Sensational like I had hoped. Most State Fair Country shows really blow it wide open and Gary just didn't do that, I know how he is, but I hoped for a touch more. I know there was a stage crash so I DO appreciate them still making the show and I AM glad that everyone was ok. Chuck Wicks also seemed a little flat, I thought he was a lot more exciting opening for some other acts on different occasions as well. I don't know, maybe it was the heat.
The concert was amazing! They both had great voices live and I would recommend these two to anyone!
Show was fantastic. He sang a mix of the newest album and the greatest hits. Played longer than a lot of stars do.
Chuck Wicks started off with a great warmup performance. He's a great singer and is sure to have more hits in the future. Gary Allan is A-MA-ZING! He's an awesome entertainer with an excellent voice! His band had recently had all their equipment and stage damaged in Canada, but the show was still great!
This guy really enjoys performing! For the 2 1/2 show, he took one song break while a guitarist was doing a solo. He is a terrific singer, guitar player. It is an energitic show that drew a standing crowd for most of the show. I would see him again today if I could. The Iowa State Fair once again had a winning concert with Gary Allan and Chuck Wicks. I wish I had the time to attend more State Fair events!
Gary Allan lived up to my expectations in person!! He is one heck of a performer/artist!! I loved that he played and sang all the songs that I hoped that he would...His songs get to the heart!!
We had 4th row center tickets to Gary at the Missouri State Fair...he puts on a FANTASTIC show, great music and great talent! The crowd was excellent, no issues whatsoever!!
Gary Allan and Chuck Wicks were so AWESOME!!!! Both had great shows:) I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to go see both of them again!
