Reba and Brooks & Dunn continue the first leg of their Together In Vegas residency at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas this week. And there’s no way to miss the huge marquee with their faces on it. It’s bigger than most houses and lights up the sky several stories high.
That’s exciting for fans, but as the 3 put it…“You never get tired of seeing your name in lights!”
Label mate, Ronnie Dunn teased Reba backstage about seeing her hang out of a car window to take a photo of it. As they laughed, he then admitted he did the same thing.
If there’s any question about what the phrase Together In Vegas means…In a nut shell, the longtime friends start the show together, sing several songs together and end the show together. It’s unlike any country show you’ll ever see.
With so many hits between them, they said the key to narrowing down the set list to 30 songs…was figuring out what they couldn’t leave out. And not only is Reba’s recent #1 song, “Going Out Like That” still on the charts, but it made the cut, and is a sassy highlight of the show.

Reba (and Ronnie Dunn) laugh about narrowing down the set list :16
Reba: It took us a while to get the set list down. The way it was flowing, to make it exciting, still have enough heart and emotion to it. I picked out my favorites, they picked out their favorites and we just blended them together. Ronnie Dunn: And we did that more than once…Reba: Yeah, seventeen times! (Laughter out)
