By the time Joe Diffie released his second album Regular Joe in 1992, he already had two No. 1 singles —”Home” and “If the Devil Danced (In Empty Pockets)”—with more to come, including “Third Rock from the Sun”, “Pickup Man,” and “Bigger Than the Beatles.” Regular Joe gave Diffie two more hit singles, “Is It Cold in Here” and “Ships That Don’t Come In,” which both went to No. 5 on the Country chart.

‘Toby Keith: American Icon’ Setlist + Pictures

Toby Keith stood defiantly onstage at the 2023 People’s Country Choice Awards and looked his own mortality squarely in the eye. Even with stomach cancer ravaging his body, he delivered an affecting rendition of his 2019 hit “Don’t Let the Old Man In.” It would become the native Oklahoman’s final public performance before his death in February at age 62. Five months later, a star-studded cast packed Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena to give Keith a proper send-off. Everyone from Lainey Wilson to Trace Adkins came to honor the country star during the two-hour NBC special Toby Keith: American Icon. But it was his youngest daughter, Krystal Keith, who gave arguably the night’s most affecting performance.
