Country star Sara Evans, along with American Idol finalist-turned country sensation Danny Gokey, performed at the Uinta County Fairgrounds on Saturday night, officially kicking off the 2010 Uinta County Fair.
The high-energy show began with Gokey taking the stage at 7 p.m. Gokey performed several tracks from his new album including, “I Still Believe” and “I Will Not Say Goodbye.” Gokey also performed a cover of the Black Crows’ “Hard to Handle”
Gokey’s performance was unfortunately cut short, as the stormy weather, with considerable lightning that had loomed in the distance, began to approach the fairgrounds.
“This stage acts as a lightning rod,” Uinta County Fair Board chairman Lynn Nelson as he closed down the show for the rain.
