4th of July Celebration
Freedom Park
Aviano Air Base, Italy


8 PM CEST

Show and List Preview:
Kris is touring various U.S. military installations in Portugal and Italy June 28 through July 4 to entertain the troops and their families. He's done this before for the USO; this tour is sponsored by Armed Forces Entertainment. The last of the four shows he is doing is at Aviano Air Base in Aviano, Italy. This show is part of an Independence Day celebration and is open to the Italian public if they got their names on the list by June 18! Last year, this event was attended by 4,000 people.

I'll be maintaining a rolling twitter list for this tour, but doing separate show posts. No worries, you won't miss a thing. Do not expect a lot of media though.

Updated: Fantastic set list and some photos after the break...hoping for some media on this one, c'mon Italy!

Show and List Preview:
Kris is touring various U.S. military installations in Portugal and Italy June 28 through July 4 to entertain the troops and their families. He's done this before for the USO; this tour is sponsored by Armed Forces Entertainment. The first show of the four shows he is doing is on Sunday evening in the Azores islands (a region belonging to Portugal). It is part of a public festival, so this particular show is open to the public.

I'll be maintaining a rolling twitter list for this tour, but doing separate show posts. No worries, you won't miss a thing. Do not expect a lot of media though.

Updated with set list and media (including a high quality video of the entire show) after the break...
