Opening Act 2006-2009 Taylor promoted her debut album, Taylor Swift (2006), by performing as an opening act for several major country artists\u2019 concert tours, including Rascal Flatts, George Strait, Brad Paisley, Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, and Keith Urban. By 2007, Taylor had quickly established herself as the most remarkable country music breakthrough artist of the decade. This landed her a spot as an opener on almost every big country headlining tour of the late 2000s: \u00abSomething really crazy started to happen. I was opening up for every single country headliner imaginable. I was opening up for Brad Paisley, George Strait, Kenny Chesney, Tim McGraw. Like, all these people that I\u2019d always wanted to open up shows for. I was a nervous wreck. I rehearsed non-stop, over and over again. And I loved it. Those were some of my favorite times.\u00bb Taylor Swift By now, she knew how to work all the different digital cameras, all the different camera phones. Even back then, she knew exactly how to establish a lasting connection with her fans. Before every show she would load up her wrists with bracelets that she would later toss out to fans during \u201cTim McGraw\u201d, allowing them to take home a small piece of her. And after she finished singing \u201cShould\u2019ve Said No\u201d about a boy who cheated on her, she would drop to her knees and bend forward, holding her head still as fans in the front rows patted it concernedly. It was a scarily intimate moment but essential to her self-presentation that there was no barrier between her and her songs, and their listeners, the consumers. That insistence informs every aspect of her work, to this day. Table of Contents Rascal Flatts: Me and My Gang Tour (2006-2007) After Rascal Flatts fired their previous opening act on the \u201cMe and My Gang\u201d Tour, Eric Church, for playing too long, Taylor received a phone call on October 17, 2006, saying that she would be hired as Church\u2019s replacement. Church joked with Taylor that he should receive a copy of her first gold album in exchange for helping her become famous; Taylor held up her end of the bargain by sending him her gold album with a note that read, \u201cThanks for playing too long and too loud on the Flatts tour. I sincerely appreciate it.\u201d In a 2007 interview, she said that she really appreciated the fans on the Rascal Flatts tour: \u00abRascal Flatts just had the perfect audience for me. I have so many young girls who are into my music and I was really wondering how it would be translated into a more traditional country audience. And it\u2019s just been unbelievable. It\u2019s really exciting to see that my music can apply to literally all walks of life.\u00bb Taylor Swift Taylor again opened for Rascal Flatts for their \u201cStill Feels Good Tour\u201d in 2008, this time around during a 45-minute set. While Rascal Flatts still enjoyed top billing for the show, it was increasingly hard to tell how much of the crowd was there for them, and how much of it was for teen sensation Taylor. Taylor also covered their song \u201cWhat Hurts The Most\u201d multiple times on her own tours. When she received country music\u2019s highest honor, the CMA \u201cPinnacle Award\u201d in 2013, she mentioned the Rascal Flatts tour by saying: \u201cI remember when I was sixteen and I got the first phone call from Scott Borchetta, my label president. He said, \u2018Can you be on the road in two days to open up for Rascal Flatts?\u2019 And I just started screaming, I said \u2018This has to be a miracle!\u2019 He said, \u2018No, it\u2019s not a miracle, Eric Church got fired for playing too long.&#8217;\u201dhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=s4Jg2aCB7HQ&#038;ab_channel=mrsbragg012905 Kenny Chesney: The Opening Slot That Wasn\u2019t (2006) In December 2023, Taylor was interviewed by TIME Magazine after she was named the publication\u2019s highly coveted \u201cPerson of the Year\u201d. In the cover story, she revealed that she almost got to open for Kenny Chesney back in 2006. She was 17 and had just booked the biggest opportunity of her life so far. \u201cThis was going to change my career,\u201d she remembered. \u201cI was so excited.\u201d But a couple weeks later, Taylor arrived home to find her mother Andrea sitting on the front steps of their house. \u201cShe was weeping. Her head was in her hands as if there had been a family emergency.\u201d Through sobs, Andrea told her daughter that Chesney\u2019s tour had been sponsored by a beer company. Taylor was too young to join. \u201cI was devastated.\u201d But some months later, at Taylor\u2019s 18th birthday party, she saw Chesney\u2019s promoter. He handed her a card from Chesney that read, as Taylor recalled, \u201cI\u2019m sorry that you couldn\u2019t come on the tour, so I wanted to make it up to you.\u201d With the note was a check: \u00abIt was for more money than I\u2019d ever seen in my life. I was able to pay my band bonuses. I was able to pay for my tour buses. I was able to fuel my dreams.\u00bb Taylor Swift Kenny Chesney told TIME why he gave her that gift all those years ago: \u201cShe was a writer who had something to say. That isn\u2019t something you can fake by writing clich\u00e9s. You can only live it, then write it as real as possible.\u201d In 2011, Kenny joined Taylor on the \u201cSpeak Now World Tour\u201d as a surprise guest at Nashville\u2019s Bridgestone Arena. In 2015, Taylor returned the favour and performed Kenny\u2019s song \u201cBig Star\u201d with him at one of his shows in Nashville. It is a song about a young girl who is destined to become a star. The live recording of the song was released on Kenny\u2019s album Live in No Shoes Nation (2017). George Strait\u2019s Tour (2007) Taylor also opened at all of the dates for the first leg of George Strait\u2019s 2007 tour that promoted his album \u201cIt Just Comes Natural\u201d, along with country legend Ronnie Milsap.
