Pretty sure that's a country music requirement. Chris Stapleton, Dean Dillon, Kris Kristofferson, Jamey Johnson, Shane McAnally, Robert Williford, Tom T. Hall, Rodney Crowell, Townes Van Zandt, John Prine, et al 😅
Carrie took advice from veterans by switching from tapping her fingers to keep in sync with the music to using her foot tapping. Everyone saying something was wrong with her, when tapping the mic. When actually nothing was wrong. Every singer uses a body part to stay in sync with the music. Ear pieces are for removing echoes or back wash, which every arena has. All arenas are made of concrete and steel, which don't absorb singers voice, it just bounces right back at them. Carrie explained all of that. Not by choice. That is what happened in Charlottesville, that night she was performed. Carrie depends on the internet system in every arena, as does every single singer who performs. No internet no show. Carrie could do without it. But she has learned it isn't worth it on her vocals.
This is my favourite outfit from the denim and rhinestones tour! Wish she came to Canada but it’s okay. I’ll just have to hopefully get a passport go to Vegas and watch her residency
