Aaron Pritchett brought his Liquored Up tour to Dawson Creek and the Ovintov Event Centre alongside country rocker Cory Marks and special guest Matt Lang. The trio led a rowdy fun good time with many drinks flowing and dancing on the floor.
The show was one with many times all 3 graced the stag having fun with that was infectious to the crowd. Aaron came out first with a little “Let’s Get Rowdy” to rile up the crowd before singing a few songs including “New Frontier” before bringing out both for their song “Liquored Up.” Follwing that Aaron had Cory Marks out for a few songs before then having Matt Lang grace the stage for a few. Aaron would return to the stage in a Matt Lang baseball jersey to sing again even riding around the stage on a tricycle for the song “Big Wheel” during the set before going to an intermission.
Post intermission all 3 men would grace the stage performing some cover songs together including a hilarious reggae version of David Lee Murphy’s “Dust On The Bottle.” After a few joint songsMatt Lang would once again come out for a set that would include his big hits “Water Down The Whiskey” and “In A Bar.” Cory Marks would play another set which included his hits like “Blame It On The Double” and “Outlaws and Outsiders” which got the crowd hyped with his country-rock sound. Aaron would come out to close the show with more of his hits plus his new song “Just Wanna Feel It.”
The encore as you could image featured all 3 out there singing the legendary Aaron Pritchett song “Hold My Beer” while they took turns firing a t-shirt gun and throwing some merch to the crowd before wrapping it up with a bit more of the song they all did together “Liquored Up.”
Following the show the 3 would take pictures and sign autographs for fans in the lobby by the merch stand. Surprisingly Matt remembered drinking with me back in September during the CCMA After Party, Cory couldn’t quiet remeber where he met me (CCMA 2021) but quickly clued and recalled it, and Aaron remembers me calling him the Meryl Streep of Canadian country from when I helped introduce him back in 2019 in Peace River. It was an amazing way to cap off a great night of music and the beginning of a a long drive home for me.
Aaron live is certainly a must see as his energy is just infectious, Matt was great to see perform more than just one or two songs, which was my history seeing him perform. Finally seeing Cory just rock that stage was something else. If you get the chance to see any of them live I would really, really suggest taking it.
