Brooks & Dunn end their 'Reboot' tour with a grateful crowd at Treasure Island

Aug. 11—WELCH, Minn. — Generations of fans held onto the oldies but goodies of country duo Brooks and Dunn during their show at Treasure Island Amphitheater.

On their last show of the 2024 Reboot tour, the sold-out crowd swayed with the familiar lyrics on Saturday, Aug. 10. The tour kicked off in May in Florida.

With songs named after their sound such as "Little Miss Honky Tonk" and "Honky Tonk Truth," people sang with the twangy songs of "true life." It was songs like "Red Dirt Road," "My Maria" and "Neon Moon" that had fans the most grateful.

After memorizing lyrics for 30 years, Chris Cook of Rochester said "(Neon Moon is) one of their best songs from the early 90s." Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn also opened with another of Cook's favorite songs, "Brand New Man."

"Here's to all you guys paying our rent for 30 years," Brooks said to the crowd of about 16,000 people.

While the duo hardly needed a reboot to their long-standing country music careers, the duo boogied to the tops of the charts with their 2019 album, "Reboot." Cook last saw the duo on their reunion for a six-year series of shows with Reba McEntire.

"It's just great to be able to see them again after they've been off the road for awhile. And I didn't know if I'd be able to see them on tour anymore and it's exciting that they're able to be out here performing again," Cook said. "We're just excited to see them one more time at least."

The duo was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2019. Brooks is also a Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame inductee.

With her "ongoing resurgence," as Nashville Lifestyles said, Terri Clark opened the night of 1990s country music. She thanked the crowd for not forgetting about the country greats of the 1990s. Clark is also headed for her headliner experience at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium in late August.

Clark primed concertgoers with her top-charting songs, such as "Better Things to Do" and "Girls Lie Too." She was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame in 2023 and the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame in 2018.

Creed will next perform at the Treasure Island Amphitheater on Aug. 17.
