Lambert’s Record-Setting Sell-out

Miranda Lambert kicked off The Revolution Continues tour over the weekend with two sold-out shows at the famed Billy Bob’s Texas in Ft. Worth. She is the first artist to ever sell out back-to-back nights at the venue. Tickets for both nights were gone in a record breaking 30 minutes.

According to Billy Bob’s Entertainment Director Robert Gallagher, “She was the only female artist to sell out our venue in 2010 and nearly 6000 fans per night came out last Friday and Saturday to give us the first back-to-back sellouts in our 30-year history.”

During Friday night’s performance, Lambert emotionally dedicated “The House That Built Me” to her grandmother who had passed away less than a week before.

The star recently won her first Grammy, and is up for seven ACM Awards on April 3. She also took home three CMA Awards late last year. As she continues her tour, Lambert’s newest single “Heart Like Mine” is climbing MusicRow’s Country Breakout chart and is at No. 11 this week.
