Description: Trace Adkins' trademark baritone has powered countless hits to the top of the charts and turned albums into Platinum plaques, selling over 10 million albums, cumulatively. I'm a stay-at-home mom of three and wish he were playing the Fork Fair again so it would be closer to home in Fayetteville, PA. I was thrilled that he remembered me from a year ago and we got to hang out again! I'm wondering how I could get to see them in concert again. Turns out, a calm demeanor is a good thing! Again, I never mentioned wanting to meet Trace. By the way, I was as calm as a cucumber when I saw him so he wouldn't think I was a crazed fan. The following year later at the Fair again, Paul recognized me and came right out from behind the fence to talk to me and my friend as it drizzled rain. I was afraid to mention Trace for fear that Paul would feel I would be using him to get to Trace. He talked with us after the show as well. He was the perfect gentleman as we asked him about his wife and children and how he swings traveling and family life. What a great time that was! He came right over two us before the show started and just hung out. Two years in a row I had the great fortune of meeting Trace's fiddle player, Paul at the York Fair in PA. Thanks for the story and enjoy the concerts and you will get to talk to Trace at one of the concerts when you least expect. If I did say something it would sound so stupid. I know I would be so tongue tied that I wouldn't or couldn't speak. I have been to a couple of his concert with Toby Keith whom I also love. I love to listen to his music and love to look at his picture. I proably would do the same thing you did on the airplane. I was just at Nashville airport 3 days ago for over 3 hours and I didn't see any famous people, but I sure did look! :) I also was trying to imagine him sitting comfortably in a Southwest Airlines seat. What an awesome story!! As a fan of Trace Adkins I enjoyed your story. Linda Bilyeu from Orlando, FL on July 01, 2016: © 2009 Deb Kingsbury Whether You're a Fan or Not, Please sign my guestbook. In 2009, he was named FAAN's National Honorary Chair for their Walk For Food Allergy: Moving Toward A Cure.

But just for a second before I turned back, not wanting to, like, stare or anything. Then I heard a cell phone ring behind me and a deep voice quietly answered, "Hellooooo." (You read that with a deep voice, right?) Then I held my breath as I sloooooowly turned my head and made eye contact with the man himself. And the one with the long hair who I thought was probably the aging lead singer? A roadie.)Īnyhow, when I'd realized Steve wasn't pulling my leg, all the blood had rushed to my face. (I told them that later on, and they thought it was pretty funny. But they look like an 80s band to me." Oops. When Steve and I had first seen them, I'd said to my husband, "Hey, they kinda look like a band. And, lo and behold, he happened to be sitting right behind us and waiting for the same plane.Īnd the guys sitting facing us in the next row of chairs - they turned out to be Trace Adkin's band members and crew. We aren't the type to get all ga-ga about famous people, anyway.Įxcept. So we finally gave up and decided to head to our gate, which was at the very end of a concourse.
