Talking about the incident, Kenny said in a press release,

“There was no way I was breaking the momentum of that song. We were in it, and I wasn’t gonna stop. We know how to roll with whatever happens. So when I looked down & saw I was bleeding, it was just a matter of getting the right tape out there. And making sure the tape would hold cause obviously it gets pretty hot.”

Fans poured in praises for the country star as one user wrote,

“That’s our Kenny!!! Man never misses a beat and is totally dedicated to his fans!!!”

Another fan wrote on Twitter,

“@kennychesney literally had a bleeding finger during our concert tonight in Philly, and he kept performing… that’s dedication 10/10.”
