Here's something the Missouri State Fair sent to us that I thought was pretty cool. It's a list of all the grandstand acts at the fair going back as far as 1990! 

Looking over the list, it's particularly interesting for country music fans. It's almost a complete history of country music. Nearly every country music star has performed at the Missouri State Fair, including Garth Brooks, Kenny Chesney and Carrie Underwood. Some of them have appeared at the fair multiple times. Alabama's headlined the fair several times. So has George Strait, Alan Jackson, Brooks & Dunn and Reba McEntire.

How many of these shows do you remember?
