The old concert idea would work, and his former Lexington home was the perfect platform for the project.
On Sunday, Humphries will headline a 15-song concert at the Lexington Opera House with all proceeds going to benefit the Ronald McDonald House of the Bluegrass. “I just couldn’t think of a better place and a better community to put something like this on,” Humphries told the Courier Journal this week as he practiced for the show. “Obviously, Big Blue Nation is the best fan base I’ve ever been a part of. I’ve played now all around the world and haven’t come across a fan base anything like them. I just kind of knew this was the place where I could do it and people would actually take notice and help people. “My name is on the billboard or whatever you call it and it’s my show, (but) I am doing this for other people. … I needed to find an environment where people wanted to be generous and wanted to give back to other people. I know that BBN and Kentucky do that.”
