Photo & Review from NancyJJ of Kenny's fan club. One of the cutest moments was when he pulled a little girl on stage to dance with her. After the dance he went to the end of the stage assuming her parents would pull her off the stage but she was unsure if she should follow him. Kenny was still singing and then looked back to see her still on the stage so he called her over and sang to her. This was during "Young."

Kenny Chesney performed in Omaha for the third time in three years to kick off his 2007 summer tour Thursday evening. The singer and his crew have spent months prepping the ingredients for his latest concert tour, from the set design and stage lights to the choreography and video footage.

Since Monday, the country superstar and his team have been in town for rehearsals at the Qwest Center Omaha in preparation for his 2007 "Flip Flop" summer tour. The nationwide tour kicked off Thursday night at the arena in front of a sold-out audience of 15,000 fans. ....

Moments later, Chesney took the stage as fans tossed beach balls and raised cameras and cell phones into the air to capture the opening-night excitement. Thursday's show marked his third consecutive year of concerts in Omaha. Wearing skin-tight jeans, a sleeveless T-shirt and black cowboy hat, the 39-year-old star opened with party anthem "Beer in Mexico." Fans raised their cups in the air as they danced in the aisles, leaving the arena floor sticky and slick with spilled beer. "We've been waiting for this night for seven months," Chesney told the audience before launching into "Summertime." In front of a stage backdrop of giant video panels, Chesney offered a one-hour-and-45-minute set of slick-sounding country-pop and laid-back Jimmy Buffett-style island tunes. Like past performances, the concert leaned heavily on Chesney's hits. Songs included "When the Sun Goes Down," "Back Where I Come From," "The Good Stuff," "Living in Fast Forward," "I Go Back," "Big Star" and "Anything but Mine," among others.
