About this listen
George Strait is making headlines again as his legendary career continues at age seventy two. According to AOL, he just kicked off his massive twenty twenty five stadium tour with Chris Stapleton, thrilling fans at the first show in Philadelphia back in May. While Strait still delivers his signature sound, concert footage circulating on TikTok sparked concern when viewers noticed him sitting during classic hits like All My Exes Live in Texas. The chatter was quickly addressed with Strait himself telling the Philadelphia crowd his back had given out on him a little while ago, so he would be taking it a bit easier on stage. Fans loyal as ever pointed out he maintained his incredible vocal quality regardless, and his sense of humor about the situation only deepened their affection for him.
Momentum is not slowing. George Strait is already the subject of major anticipation for his newly announced tour running through twenty twenty six, with stops scheduled at heavyweight venues like Madison Square Garden, Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena, and the Hollywood Bowl as reported by CelineDionTours2026 dot com. Rumors are swirling about special guest appearances from rising country acts, keeping buzz high in the country music community as ticket sales are predicted to move fast.
On the business and music front, AOL also reports that the five top-voted songs from Strait’s iconic Strait Out of the Box collection are being assembled into a new streaming release titled Strait Out of the Box Fan Favorites, set to debut Friday, September twenty sixth, twenty twenty five. To mark the thirtieth anniversary of the original box set, his official Threads social channel encouraged fans to vote for their picks all this week. Social engagement is running notably high, with nostalgic posts and clips from across the legendary run of the collection.
There is no sign of major negative news, but George Strait tributes are also popping up across Texas, proof that his imprint on American music is still growing. Notably, the Greek Bros Oyster Bar in El Campo is hosting a highly anticipated tribute event this coming weekend, and public gatherings in towns like Sugar Land have also celebrated his legacy.
No verifiable controversies or business dramas are evident, and speculation about Strait’s back health remains just that—he addressed the crowds openly and appears to be pacing himself wisely. As ever, he stands not just as country royalty but as a resilient and authentic performer proving, even with a sore back, he is not ready to leave the big stage.
