On Oct. 1, 2017, Jason Aldean was performing his song "When She Says Baby" at the Route 91 Harvest Festival in Las Vegas when gunman Stephen Paddock, 64, opened fire on the crowd from the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Hotel, killing 60 people and injuring over 800 more, according to People.

“It was a festival like we've done a million times,” Aldean said. “It was just obviously something that we weren't prepared for.”
It was when Aldean got back home that the reality of what had occurred truly hit him.
"I ended up having a moment at my house where I broke down thinking about all the people that I could have lost, all the people that we did lose as far as fans, but my inner circle of people and my wife was there eight months pregnant with my son and all these things," Aldean explained.
To this day, the tragedy remains the deadliest mass shooting by a lone gunman in U.S. history.
