“I received more text messages and more calls about this show than ever in the history of being a part of a band,” Joel Smallbone told the Thursday night crowd of 53,133 paid attendance. Thursday night’s show also marked another first. For King & Country was the first act to make mention of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Joel Smallbone dedicated hushed hymn “Shoulders” to “our Eastern European brothers and sisters who are walking through hell.”For King & Country’s sound is made for stadiums. It’s big and lush, all percussion and soaring choruses. In fact, most everyone onstage banged on a drum at some point. And yes, the whole thing often calls Coldplay to mind.
A pair of superstar duets, via prerecorded video, were show highlights: Tori Kelly and Kirk Franklin joined in for “Together,” and Dolly Parton made her first RodeoHouston appearance in decades during “God Only Knows.”Joel Smallbone mentioned his wife Moriah Peters, a “Latina,” and shouted out “the Latinos in the house.” He plugged the group’s upcoming album, “What Are We Waiting For?” and said fans could preorder a signed CD, “saucers that would magically play music,” at merch stands.
