Chris Knight is one of those singer-songwriters who has been around for a very long time writing big country and western songs that wow audiences all over America. He takes his time on stage finding his bearings before beginning a song. Accompanied by his black acoustic guitar he launches in to “Ain’t Easy Being Me” which was quite a hit for this singer-songwriter about fifteen years ago. According to punters around me he still sings it exactly the same way that he did about fifteen years prior to this performance. The audience help him singing along throughout his whole set. Another big song is “Cry Lonely”, which is from the “Enough Rope” album, which is lyrically sounds like a quite a dark autobiographical song. It has the audience ever so quite, listening tentatively as Knight sings his heart out throughout these songs. He’s definitely a man of few words between the songs, it’s really not about the bantering with the crowd all that much for him, as he sports a baseball cap with the peak pretty low.
