Brantley Gilbert suddenly stopped one of his recent shows claiming difficulties, but in reality the country music singer was facilitating an onstage proposal.
The show-stopping incident occurred at Gilbert’s concert at the Tsongas Center in Lowell on Thursday, March 27, according to several videos posted to social media.
Gilbert called for Brandon, a member of his team, to come out on stage and help with the “technical” issue. It was then he brought Brandon’s girlfriend Linda to the stage to help as well.
“Sorry, this may be a little unprofessional, but this is one of my guy’s girlfriends here,” Gilbert told the crowd, according to a video posted to the singer’s Instagram. “She’s going to kind of help us figure this out.”
It was then that Linda looked at Gilbert’s “broken” transmitter. Brandon, who was out of her line of sight, then got down on one knee — soliciting an eruption of cheers and applause from the audience.
Linda was rendered speechless once she saw Brandon, who simply asked her, “Will you?”
To which Linda shouted in the microphone, “Yes.”
Gilbert did something similar in 2017 when he helped a fan propose, according to Taste of Country.
The country singer is currently on “The Tattoos Tour.” Gilbert’s two remaining shows will be in Utica, New York and Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania.
