NASHVILLE, TN – Bobby Bones & The Raging Idiots had the crowd on their feet at the sold-out 4th Annual Million Dollar Show last night, bringing in more than $200,000 for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Ticket sales and donations – including a $10,000 gift from 3 Doors Down’s 501(c)3 “The Better Life Foundation” presented by Brad Arnold – helped make last night’s total a record-breaking amount for the yearly event and brought Bones’ total raised for the cause to more than $10 million. An unforgettable lineup of today’s top artists took the stage for the cause, including Luke Bryan, Lady Antebellum, Cole Swindell, Jon Pardi, Brad Arnold of 3 Doors Down, Maggie Rose, Bailey Bryan, Adam Hambrick, Rachel Wammack as well as surprise guests Sharna Burgess, Kristian Bush, Gavin DeGraw and Lindsay Ell.

Adam Hambrick had the crowd on their feet with “Rockin’ All Night Long” and Jon Pardi kept up the energy with “Dirt On My Boots” while Rachel Wammack performed her stripped-down ballad “Damage.”
