You would think, by now, that some of these guys would be used to topping the charts. I mean, between number one albums and number one singles, some of today’s country music artists would be throwing a non stop party with their successes. Of course, if you’re going to celebrate, you might as well do it in style, right? And what a better reason to celebrate than when they score another number one single (or two number one singles, as the case may be).

That’s exactly what two of country music’s current superstars have done in the recent past. Brad Paisley and Dierks Bentley have both reached the top spot on the country music singles chart within the past couple of months. As a matter of fact, Brad went to number one with both of his most recent (and hilarious) singles, “Ticks” and “Online”. Dierks topped the charts just a couple of weeks ago with “Free and Easy (Down the Road I Go)”.

So how did these two rowdy musicians celebrate? In grand style, of course! Brad had his party first. On November 28th, Brad and his co-writers for both songs were honored for their achievement (after arriving about 20 minutes late) at a computer store in Nashville. The Macintosh store was inspired by Paisley’s number one hit “Online”. After answering questions about his songs, Brad mentioned he will be on a Sesame Street Christmas Special singing jingle bells with Grover. Now that’s a party!

Dierks Bentley celebrated his most recent number one “Free and Easy (Down the Road I Go)” on the ice December 4th. After being awarded his gifts and plaques, Dierks suited up to play a game of hockey for all of his invited guests. He even scored two goals to impress the crowd. He did mention he will release one more single (”Trying to Stop Your Leaving”) off of his current album in January before putting out a new album he is currently writing and recording.
