Tim McGraw is winding down the Brothers of the Sun tour, where he’s been playing for 50,000 – 60,000 people at each show, and he’s getting ready to shift gears for his and Faith Hill’s new Soul2Soul show at The Venetian in Las Vegas, where he’ll only be performing for about 1,800 people a night and he admits, “It makes me nervous to be that intimate.” Tim says outside of his early club days or the Bread and Water club shows he’s played over the last decade after some of his concerts, he hasn’t played many shows as intimate as the ones he’s about to play, and he jokes that at his club shows, “We were all so drunk then that it didn’t matter when we played those.” Tim stopped drinking four years ago, so that definitely won’t be applicable in Vegas, but he says, “You know what, there’s still an energy there that you bring and there’s still the energy that you feed off of from the crowd and it changes a little bit but there’s still something that happens there and that’s what you look for. You look for those moments that happen and you sort of thrive on them.” Chances are Tim won’t be singing his latest single, “Truck Yeah,” during the Soul2Soul shows because he says the performances are going to be all about him and Faith together, as opposed to them as individual performers. Tickets for Soul2Soul at The Venetian are on sale now through Ticketmaster.
