Luke Bryan broke Soldier Field's attendance record for a country concert (new mark: 60,000) with an unpredictable set that had country critics gushing.
"Bryan knows how to entertain in a way that almost feels like a lost art," CMT's Alison Bonaguro wrote. "Keeping the crowd guessing all night long."
The highlights of the night included some special guests:
Bryan had the show's opener Cole Swindell came back out to do Florida Georgia Line's "This Is How We Roll," a song Swindell and Bryan both co-wrote with the band.
And when he brought another opener - Lee Brice -- out to sing, Bryan called him the best singer and songwriters on planet Earth.
"Lee wrote a song for the Eli Young Band, but he doesn't do it in his show anymore. So I'm gonna make it do it for y'all tonight," Bryan said as he sat down at the piano with Brice on acoustic guitar by his side. The two of them, without any backing band, played "Crazy Girl," and took turns on lead vocals.
"Me and Lee ain't never heard it sound that good," Bryan said when it was over and he and Brice had given each other a couple of hearty hugs.
"Chill bump city," he added, trying to show a football stadium full of fans the goose-bumps on his arms.
Bryan ended his set with the fan favorite "I Don't Want This Night To End," which you can check out below:
