Idol Tour 2018: August 30 and 31 and September 2: Kris Allen Plays Montana for the First Time (?) (and Utah and South Dakota too) with the American Idols

The tour heads back across the country again! What's cool is that Kris is going to play for the first time ever (as far as I've been keeping track anyway) in Montana! It's your chance! They're also playing Utah, where Kris has done a few shows over the years.

(Update: Unfortunately, can't find any Kris media from the Montana show! I've added the 9/2 South Dakota show to this post in an attempt for South Dakota to pick up Montana's slack.)

August 30: Alberta Bair Theater, Billings, MT - Nothing. Crickets. If you were there and took a photo or video of Kris, please share with the world.

August 31: Dejoria Center, Salt Lake City, UT - A few videos.

September 2: Deadwood Mountain Grand, Deadwood, SD - Two nice sets of videos!

The set list for all Idol 2018 live tour shows is here.
Updated September 3 with videos from South Dakota.

Event and List Preview:

Kris performs for the students of South Dakota State University in Brookings, South Dakota. This is a small town (closest big city is Minneapolis, a four hour drive away), but it's dear to my heart because my great-grandfather Cecil used to own the department store there! I kid you not. There's a pub now in the same building named after him. One day I would seriously like to visit this place!

As far as the show goes, the list is not big. But a student recently tweeted that it was almost sold out, so expect a good crowd and a lot of late additions to the list. The Facebook page for the event has been popular as well, and I've added those I could find from there on Twitter to the list.

Updated: Here's the student newspaper article:

Also - just a bit of housekeeping news. I've been following how some other fandoms do their concert pages and have decided to start adding more info and pictures to each concert post. If I can do it while a show is going on, great; if not, will do it afterwards. I'd also like to archive stuff for our fandom, so if you have some great pictures, videos and/or mp3s from past Kris shows (especially the Out Alive Tour), I'd love to link them. So please send them my way (email krinjalists@gmail.com or tweet to @KrisAllenLists)

But back to South Dakota!
