After their Just The Right Kind of Crazy Tour had ended, Dan + Shay posted the "Nothin Like You (Live)" video to their YouTube channel and social media pages. According to information at the bottom of the YouTube video, the footage in this clip was taken by Rob Norris and Taylor Bray added the live audio. The video is set to live audio of "Nothin' Like You" from the tour and highlights from the venues they played, including a few shots from their sold out show that I attended at The Intersection in Grand Rapids, Michigan on October 18, 2015.
To start the video at the :19 mark, there is footage of fans lined up outside in downtown Grand Rapids near the venue waiting to get in. Next, at the 1:30 mark, you can see The Intersection crowd with Dan Smyers at the front getting ready to crowd surf! I happened to make it into this video. My face is in the red circle in the screenshot at the bottom of this post! The 1:38 mark features Smyers laying on his back making his way from the front to the back of the venue. I was in the second row with my friend and I remember when he started crowd surfing, he was directly over us! That was such a cool and surreal moment that I will never forget! There is more footage of Smyers crowd surfing at the 1:50 mark and I found myself again! Finally at the 2:38 section toward the end of the clip, Shay Mooney is seen being lifted back onto the stage.
This was the only concert on this tour that the duo crowd surfed. When their set started, Smyers mentioned from the stage that they wanted to do something to celebrate "Nothin" Like You" climbing the country radio chart. The producer announced that he and Mooney would crowd surf later in their set. Somehow I missed that announcement early on, so it was a huge surprise to me when they came into the audience and everyone had to use their hands to move them to the back of the venue and then back to the front again.
My friend and I had a VIP package for this concert, which included early access to the venue so we could be near the stage. We ended up standing in the second row! We also got to take a picture with the duo prior to the show starting.
Below is the screenshot of me from the video. Directly underneath that is my meet + greet picture that was taken before the concert! The YouTube video is beneath the pictures. Enjoy!
