Do problems loom for Jason Aldean?

What's up with the career of Jason Aldean? Just when it seemed like things were going great for the Georgian comes today's concert news.

It took the country rocker all of four minutes to sell out a May 19 show at Atlanta's Aaron's Amphitheatre at Lakewood. When you're selling that fast, it's time to add a second show.

Aldean did just that. The problem is that he took two hours to sell out a May 18 show, according to a press release from his publicist.

If you do the math, that means he took 30 times as long to sell out a second show. At that rate, if he added a third show (it looks like he could based on his schedule), it would take him five days!

Hang in there Jason. Life can be tough sometimes.

And congrats! Quite impressive to be on such a roll especially for an artist on an indie label where radio play (at first anyway) is not so easy to come by. Aldean's career continues its upward trajectory.
