Aldean is already planning how to balance his time with his family, including his two youngest children, Memphis and Navy, while on the road.
“I kind of leave that up to my wife,” Aldean tells Music Mayhem. “A lot of times, the way we do it is one week I’ll go out by myself, and she’ll stay home with the kids. The next weekend she’ll come out with me, just me and her, and then the third weekend, they’ll all come out.”
“The two young ones, they tend to get a little bored on the bus after a couple of days, so we try not to have them out there and wear them out on the bus,” he adds. “But I definitely like having them out at least once or twice a month, just so I don’t have to be away from them for that long. And also, they can kind of see some shows and all those kinds of things. It’s kind of hit or miss, but I leave that up to Brit.”
From the schedule Aldean posted, it seems that Barrett’s last show will be on August 27 in Darien Center, New York. The Rock N’ Roll Cowboy Tour is scheduled to wrap up on October 29 in Wichita, Kansas. Find a list of all of the upcoming shows at JasonAldean.com.
