In a press release, Chesney expressed why he went back to doing stadium tours, as compared to the more intimate, smaller venues that he performed during his 2019 tour.

“These stadium shows are the most fun thing I do. It’s been a year, so when I get out there, I wanna make sure that No Shoes Nation is being rocked, having fun and getting all the music they can out of the day. We always try to do something different, bring someone new — and for anyone who’s never seen Michael Franti and Spearhead, just wait!”

He also mentions that while he appreciated the smaller, more up close and personal venues that he played in the past year, he missed being in bigger stages.

“I love playing for No Shoes Nation any time, anywhere, but these stadium shows are always something so powerful, I can’t tell you how much anticipation goes into each one. Not to mention, we’re always wanting to top what’s come before — and I think this lineup might just pack the most fun of them all.”
