Luke Combs\u00a0is gearing up for his\u00a0My Kinda Saturday Night Tour\u00a0next year, and he wants openers who push him to be better.<\/p>\n
His tour is taking place in iconic stadiums like Lambeau Field, Neyland Stadium, Notre Dame Stadium, and even Wembley Stadium in London.<\/p>\n
So, Luke wants to stack the lineup with serious talent.<\/p>\n
That means he’s bringing some heavy hitters for his openers:\u00a0\u00a0Dierks Bentley, Thomas Rhett, and even\u00a0The Script\u00a0from Ireland.<\/p>\n
“I pick all my openers . . .\u00a0 I know Dierks puts on a great show.\u00a0 I know TR puts on a great show . . . You can’t phone it in playing after Dierks. \u00a0You can’t phone it in playing after TR.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
