It's finally here!  The big day for all Jason Aldean fans!  He's bringing his SOLD OUT My Kinda Party Tour to WSU's Nutter Center tonight, along with Luke Bryan and Lauren Alaina.   Among many of Jason's huge hits, you can bet you'll hear his recent smash "Fly Over States."   Jason is thrilled we fans love it, but tells The Boot he's kind of leary about the politicians.   The term has been used more than once during this election year to "describe the middle of the country and sometimes used in a dismissive or derogatory manner,"  which is why Jason says he felt so strongly about the pro-heartland tune in the first place.    "It'll be my luck that the worst candidate will pick up 'Fly Over States' as his election song," Jason tells The Boot. "Then I'll be forever linked to that guy, whoever he is! [laughs] One of the things about my music is that people who are from middle America, the heartland, that's kind of where I grew up. Those people have always related to what I was doing, and this song speaks directly to those people. The song is absolutely real, and when you tell a story like that and you deliver it in a way that it's real and you're not trying to sugarcoat it, people respond to that and relate to it. That's what this song is, and why it's become popular."  Read more here!   Check out the video too!
