Rehearsal photos have been popping up over the past few weeks and now the real thing is underway! Reba, Brooks & Dunn: Together in Vegas is in high gear at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace this week. The residency continues through July 4 and will pick up again in December.

It’s been a while since fans have seen this combination of talent, but these longtime friends are thrilled to be reunited on stage. As Reba puts it…“I like touring with these guys and the high jinks are fun!”

It’s been 7 years since the three recorded the huge hit “Cowgirls Don’t Cry.” And recently Reba was in the studio adding her vocals to label mate, Ronnie Dunn’s soon to be released solo project. Three words from Ronnie summed up the session…“D**n, she’s good!”

It’s been 5 years since Kix and Ronnie toured together, so you’d wonder how a huge, history making event like this came about? With laughter, they say the conversation started at dinner well over a year ago…

Reba, Kix & Ronnie laugh about the origin of Vegas shows :15
“Reba: About 12 or 15 people at the dinner wasn’t it? Kix: yeah, and we really hadn’t talked about it at all before that honestly. Reba: Right time, right place. I wish I could take credit for it, but no I can’t. Ronnie: Do you think a good lookin’ red head would manipulate a situation like this? Or anything else? (Laughter out)
