Luke Bryan brought both the hits and the friends during his recent sold-out concert at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tenn., on Thursday, Sept. 24. The show, dubbed “Luke & Friends,” celebrated the country music superstar’s ninth studio album, Signs, which was released earlier this month.
During the concert, Bryan made a handful of jokes at Blake Shelton’s expense, prompting some fans to believe he was about to invite the former The Voice judge onstage. However, that wasn’t the case, as seen in the TikTok clips below.
Instead, the five-time Entertainer of the Year called out his fellow American Idol judge Carrie Underwood, who walked out to join him for a rendition of Diamond Rio’s “Meet in the Middle.”

After warming up the audience with the ‘90s country classic, the two artists segued into a surprise rendition of Bon Jovi’s rock smash “Livin’ on a Prayer,” with Bryan asking the crowd, “Are you ready to turn it up a little bit, Nashville? I think Carrie needs a tequila shot… I need one.”

Underwood, wearing sparkly bootie shorts and a bedazzled shirt to match, showcased her powerhouse vocals on the next few lines before the two shared vocals on the sing-along chorus.
Released in October of 1986, “Livin’ on a Prayer” appeared on Bon Jovi’s third studio album, Slippery When Wet. The song, written by Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora, and Desmond Child, became a No. 1 hit for the band on the Billboard Hot 100.
Since its release, “Livin’ on a Prayer” has continued to resonate with listeners across generations, even landing at No. 457 on Rolling Stone’s list of “500 Greatest Songs of All Time” in 2021.
Bryan’s return to Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena served as a make-up show as he fell ill during his previous appearance at the venue. This time, he told fans he felt like “A million dollars.” Before the show, according to Country Now, Bryan was presented with Diamond plaques commemorating the RIAA certifications of “Play It Again” and “Country Girl (Shake It For Me.”
Aside from Underwood’s guest appearance, Bryan also surprised the crowd with appearances from Dierks Bentley, Kane Brown, Darius Rucker, Jason Aldean, and Chris Stapleton.
