Tickets are on sale now to see country music sensation Lonestar at Chinook Winds Casino Resort March 2 and 3.

Lonestar came on the scene with hit songs “No News” and “Tequila Talking” from their first album titled Lonestar. Since then, hit songs like “Amazed” and “You Walked In” have solidified this group as one of the most popular country groups ever. The concerts are at 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday, March 2 and 3, with ticket prices from $35 to $60.

This band has used soaring, passionate vocals to launch such huge hits as “Amazed,” “My Front Porch Looking In” (the most-played country song of 2003) and “I’m Already There,” a special favorite of the military and their families and BMI/ASCAP Song Of The Year for 2002. The group has found its emotional essence powered by the national post-9/11 appetite for songs that come from and target the heart. “Let’s Be Us Again” pays homage to that tradition with a repentant title track that offers an emotional plea for the healing of a troubled relationship.

“Let Them Be Little,” concerns the all-too-fleeting time when kids are small, and Lonestar’s lead singer and songwriter, Richie McDonald, says part of the song’s genesis was a note that his son brought home from kindergarten. Still hanging on the family refrigerator and colored blue, it reads: “Dear Parents, My arms are short, and my legs are short, so please have patience with me, because I’m a little person. Don’t let me grow up too fast, and enjoy every moment.” That special song puts some of those same thoughts into a parent’s words and contains a typical Lonestar line written to etch itself on the memory of anyone familiar with little ones’ nighttime insecurities: “Let them sleep in the middle.”
