During a recent interview, Keith Urban said that he loves it when the crowd at a concert grabs and claws at him. You got it folks..he asked for it! Keith actually instructs his security team to not touch fans when he goes off stage and enters the crowd. He says he likes walking the tightrope between safety and danger. He's right about that. It's a thin line sometimes between a fun fan interaction and losing a chunk of hair, which has happened to him!

My wife and I have been to a number of Keith Urban shows. We'll be hitting another one October 27th as his Ripcord Tour hits Moline. If you 've ever wondered how you or your significant other would react to having Keith Urban standing and performing a mere few feet from you, I've gone through it. We were at the Iowa State Fair watching Keith perform when he dove off stage and took off into the crowd as he often does. Our seats were in the grandstands and both Holly and I thought, there is no way he gets to us. We were wrong. Keith ended up playing a mere five feet from us and as he made his way back down, Holly got this picture.

As I complimented her on her great shot, she said, "it was either take the picture or grab him!" So there you have it. My wife decided to get the picture, instead of a handful of Keith Urban.
