I\u2019ve always loved putting on concerts and tours and shows and really tried to put on something that\u2019s incredibly entertaining and engaging. I probably obsess about that part of what I do equal to making records.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Keith is up against Chris Stapleton, Jason Aldean, Kenny Chesney and Luke Bryan for Entertainer of the Year.
