Blake Shelton officially took over The Colosseum at Caesars Palace this week and immediately told the crowd to quit their ‘Dry January’ goals. He stood on the stage with a drink in his hand and called this goal ‘stupid’ to a room full of roaring fans. This performance through January 31 is not a polite concert; it is a complete takeover. This unfiltered energy is the heart of The Residency Kick-Off and Dry January Vibe.
The giant LED screens behind him displayed ‘Texas’ motifs. Blake moves between telling jokes and playing a two-hour set of hits that everyone knows by heart. You do not see a polished act; you see a man having the time of his life.
The Residency Kick-Off & “Dry January” Vibe
One fan said that it was the most fun they had ever had in Las Vegas. Another viewer noted that his humor is just as good as his singing. It is clear that the audience loves his “no-rules” approach to a residency.
That laughter leads right into a major milestone for his long career. Once the crowd is loose, the music shifts into a powerful celebration of his 31st number one song called Stay Country of Die Tryin’. It is a moment where the party turns into a historical event for country music.

The performance of his latest hit features a guitar-driven sound that fills every corner of the room. He thanked the crowd for sticking with him through three decades of music. Thousands of people sang along to the anthem of staying true to yourself.
Blake Shelton carries a style that is both humble and larger than life. His journey is a testament to being yourself. You should follow Blake Shelton on Facebook, Instagram and YouTube to see where the party goes next.
