Brad Paisley will host a night of stand-up comedy this Thursday at Nashville’s Tennessee Performing Arts Center as part of the Wild West Comedy Festival.

When Brad has hosted the CMA's with Carrie Underwood, it's almost like a stand-up comedy routine and he does a great job at that, why not do comedy? Brad tells Nashville’s Tennessean that he’d consider one day dabbling in a bit of stand-up himself, "I really like the perspective of life that comedy gives you. I’ve always felt it is the absolute key to getting through anything."
