Darius Rucker - PNC Bank Arts Center, Holmdel, NJ 5/14/2015

Last night was the opening night of Darius Rucker's Southern Style Tour. He kicked it off at the PNC Bank Arts Center in Holdmel N.J.
The tour also features A Thousand Horses, The Brothers Osborne, and Brett Eldredge as the opening acts.
Mr. Rucker's setlist consisted primarily of his solo work, but did include a few Hootie & The Blowfish songs and covers.
Prior to performing Time, he told a story of singing Billy Joel's Honesty in the shower at his dorm. Mark Bryan(guitarist for Hootie & The Blowfish) heard him singing and told him they had to make music together.
Prior to Let Her Cry he talked about hearing The Black Crowes She Talks to Angels and being surprised that it was them, being so different to Hard to Handle. He went home that night, put on a Bonnie Raitt album and said he wrote his version of She Talks to Angels for her.
Towards the end of the main set, all the artists came out to join on the Hootie & The Blowfish song Hold My Hand.
