Brantley Gilbert’s Wife Delivers Baby On Tour Bus In The Middle Of A Concert

They always say in show business:  The Show Must Go On.

But certainly Brantley Gilbert proved that you can take a quick delay, help deliver your baby on the tour bus, and then continue singing to your fans.

That’s exactly how it played out during a show on Friday night in Tupelo, Mississippi.     The show paused for “an emergency” and Brantley was gone about an hour.  Then he walked back on stage and announced, “We got a baby, Mississippi.”  The crowd went nuts.

He joked that all the moms in the crowd were probably thinking, “What the [heck] is wrong with this dude?”  He explained that his wife said now that they had three kids, he needed to get back to work.  And so he did!
