Culminating his whirlwind year, Post Malone hit the stage at Nissan Stadium on Saturday night (Oct. 19) for an unforgettable, sold-out show, marking his first NFL stadium concert.
With the sun already set and fans ready to go, country-rock singer Dan Spencer took the stage to warm up the crowd, beginning with “Weepin’ Weekend.” Spencer continued to rock out with originals such as “Eternal Platitude,” “Fat Vampire” and “Tennessee Buddha.” After thanking Post for allowing him to open, he closed up with “Coffee Shop Cowboy Blues.”
Fans were then treated to a stunning set from country duo Muscadine Bloodline. Kicking off their high energy performance with “Rattlesnake Ridge” and “Weyerhaeuser Land,” the two had fans clapping along from the start. After encouraging everyone to “sit back, relax and enjoy the show,” they continued the party with “Dyin’ For A Livin’” before slowing it down for their first-ever RIAA Platinum hit “Porch Swing Angel,” where a sea of cellphone lights illuminated the stadium.
Gary Stanton of the duo then started to add some old school sounds in, pulling out a harmonica for “Mary Riley” and “Earle Byrd From Mexia,” breaking the stadium out into the ultimate jam session. The duo slowed it down once more for emotional “10-90,” before taking the crowd to Monroe County, Alabama performing their high energy “Devil Died In Dixie.” Stanton and Charlie Muncaster took the crowd back in time with the first song they ever wrote together “Ginny,” before closing the set with “Me On You.”
As everyone was waiting for the man of the hour to take the stage, there was a sense of unity felt around the crowd. Whether you were a fan of his hip-hop hits or an avid listener of his country F-1 Trillion album, everyone was there to see the superstar perform a decade of music. Starting the night off with “Wrong Ones,” Post instantly made the crowd feel welcome. Fireworks and sparkler display lit up the sky throughout the tune, and continued throughout the night. After finishing “Finer Things,” Nashville welcomed him with a “Posty” chant, making the singer, and fans, feel emotional already.
Post shared that it was his first NFL stadium show, and then took the crowd back to 2019 with “Circles,” before switching back to country with “What Don’t Belong To Me.” While taking in everything that was happening, he continued to express his gratitude to every person in the audience, bringing his emotions to the forefront again. He then continued the hits with “Guy For That.”
After a stellar vocal performance of “Chemical,” Post brought the honky-tonk vibes with “California Sober” and “M-E-X-I-C-O,” spotting some fans doing the letter dance to the latter. After taking the time to introduce his band on stage and singing happy birthday to one of them, Post electrified the stage with “Candy Paint.”
“I want to treat you guys to a special cover tonight,” Post stated as applause was still roaring. “I want to honor someone who made me want to come to Nashville and make music.” He got the stadium roaring for the late Toby Keith before acoustically covering his “What I Didn’t Know Then.”
In a special moment, Post invited his fan Winter onto the stage. The superstar gave Winter a guitar at a show last year, and since then, Winter had been practicing his song “Stay.” Post gave Winter a seat and a guitar, and the two flawlessly performed the track together. You could hear a pin drop in the audience.
With everyone in the audience captivated by his every move, Post performed a three-track run of some of his biggest hits, including “I Fall Apart,” “Better Now” and “Psycho,” where fire and flashing lights punctuated the moments, adding to the star’s incredible performances. He then switched back to F-1 Trillion’s “Dead At The Honky Tonk.”
“We’d like to dedicate this next song to anyone out there who feels like even when in a crowded room, you’re all by yourself. I just want to let you know, keep rocking, keep rolling, keep being yourself and if you’re a loser, welcome to the show,” Post shared before going into “Losers.”

“I remember sitting on my bed when I was a kid and trying to learn chords, learn how to make beats and how to be a musician,” began an emotional Post. “I sat down on the edge of my bed and said, ‘one of these days I’m going to be a musician.’ Thanks to y’all, we made it happen.”
After the cheers of the crowd swept through the stadium, he than began to talk about his family, including his three-year-old daughter, whom he wrote the next tune for. After shouting out all the parents in the crowd, Post captured everyone’s heart with “Yours,” before turning the dial back up with “White Iverson.”
With the bevy of Nashville stars on his album, fans were eagerly wondering if anyone was going to join Post for the party. Just in time, he welcomed Blake Shelton out onto the stage to perform their hit “Pour Me A Drink.”
To continue honoring Nashville stars, he covered Brad Paisley‘s “I’m Gonna Miss Her,” before firing up the crowd with “Go To Hell.” As soon as the notes started for the next track, excitement filled the stadium as Post sang his recording-breaking hit “I Had Some Help,” closing the country chapter of the night.
As the set began winding down, there was still more to give. After an enthralling performance of “Rockstar,” Post wanted to share one more note of encouragement with his fans.
“It seems like a lot of the time, you look around in this world and there’s not enough love,” he began. “To anyone who feels like they’re alone, you are not alone. You rock so much and no one on this planet can tell you what to do with this life. It does not matter what you want to do in this world, do it the best you can, do it the hardest you can, because no one can stop you from living your dreams.”
After filling their hearts with hope and gratitude, Post gave fans the ultimate closing of the show with “Congratulations” and “Sunflower.”
The “F-1 Trillion Tour” will wrap up this week in Post’s home state of Texas with two shows in Houston and two shows in Austin.
