At a recent Lainey Wilson concert, a lighthearted moment unfolded when her opening act, Ian Munsick, pulled off a clever prank by dressing in her signature bell bottoms. Munsick shared this amusing scene on social media, capturing the playful interaction between the two country music artists.
Upon seeing Munsick in her actual pants, a surprised Wilson exclaimed, “Stop, you lyin’,” before they joined forces to perform “Good Horses.” As Munsick danced, Wilson took the opportunity to guide him on the proper moves, teaching him to sway with the rhythm in her humorous yet endearing style. With laughter, she corrected his steps and introduced him to her unique dance, humorously dubbed the “turkey leg.”
At the end of this entertaining video montage, Wilson made a playful request to return the pants, while Munsick quipped that she might prefer to burn them instead, highlighting the camaraderie and fun shared between the two performers.
In country music, it’s a common tradition for opening acts to prank headliners, with such antics often occurring towards the end of a tour. Moreover, Wilson embraced another tradition by presenting Munsick with a thoughtful end-of-tour gift — a custom belt buckle and an ATV — showcasing her appreciation for his performances throughout the tour.
This lighthearted exchange not only provided fans with a memorable moment but also underscored the friendly relationships and playful spirit that prevail in the country music scene. It’s heartwarming to witness artists supporting each other while creating joyful experiences both on and off stage.
The pranks and gifts exchanged highlight the sense of community within the music industry, where laughter and gratitude help to forge lasting connections.
