Blake Shelton is finding a home in the neon light of Las Vegas.
On Feb. 5, the country superstar kicked off his Las Vegas residency show at Caesars Palace’s Colosseum, and he wasted no time, coming on stage to “Pour Me a Drink,” his song with Post Malone.
“This is a big deal for me. This is the first night of my very first residency anywhere. It just happens to be at Caesars. That’s pretty cool,” he told the crowd of 4,300.
“I’ve been coming to Las Vegas for a long, long time, so I know what my job is here tonight. I know what we’re all doing here,” added Shelton. “We’re here to make memories that we’re going to pretend like we don’t remember, and my job tonight is to provide a soundtrack for your trip to Las Vegas.”
The 90-minute show was classic Shelton, as he rattled off hit after hit from his deep catalog, sipped booze from a plastic black cup on stage and often bantered with the crowd. During one moment, he noticed a fan’s custom-made t-shirt that said: “Still not a Swiftie. I’m a Sheltie.”
“That’s gonna be a YouTube moment. That’s gonna be on social media,” he said after reading the shirt’s message out loud. “Taylor Swift’s gonna have me killed.”
Still, Shelton brought the crowd alive while energetically playing newer songs, such as “Texas,” but he also thrilled the crowd with classics, such as “Austin,” “Some Beach” and “Home.” He also delved into several duets with his wife, Gwen Stefani, who harmonized with her husband in a prerecorded video on an oversized screen behind him.
“This is too much fun to be work,” he said later in the show. “There’s some kind of added pressure when you do Las Vegas, like everybody is waiting for the trapeze people or some dancers to come down.”
By the end of the evening, Shelton was flying high from his no-frills, all-substance concert, telling the crowd it was a night he’ll “never forget.”
While the six-show run is a long time coming, Shelton recently joked that he has to use the word “residency” delicately around Stefani, who had a three-year residency show in Vegas from 2018 to 2021. In total, she performed her Just a Girl show 57 times.
