Well our week is made. Today Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo officials announced an extra day to festivities, and a concert-only performance by the King of Country Music, George Strait.

The 2019 Rodeo will now run for 21 days Monday, Feb. 25 through Sunday, March 17. Strait will perform on the final night - his 30th RODEOHOUSTON performance

We are extremely excited to welcome George Strait back to the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo,” said Joel Cowley, Rodeo president and CEO. “George has a long history with the Rodeo, first taking the stage back in 1983. He’s been with us through many of our major milestones during the past three decades, has entertained more than 1.5 million RODEOHOUSTON fans and is the only platinum honoree on our Star Trail of Fame.

We'll have to wait until early '19 to find out the rest of the concert lineup, but we're pretty sure this news can hold us over 'till January.
