'Brand New Man', 'Boot Scootin Boogie', 'Hard Working Man', 'Rock My World', and 'My Maria' were just a few of the big hits that came from Brooks and Dunn during this time period. They were definitely at the top of their game.
Brooks and Dunn are still on the charts with their latest chart topper being the recent cut 'Indian Summer'. Brooks and Dunn are going to go out with a bang and you can be rest assured that this last tour will be the best that they have ever staged.
