Over the last twelve months, Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley of Florida Georgia Line learned some valuable lessons about touring. The duo exploded onto the scene seemingly out of nowhere, but in reality many miles were traveled bring the live show to anyone who wanted to listen. They went from traveling in a van to touring with three tourbuses in less than a year, so they were the perfect act to pass on advice at the recent Billboard Touring Conference held in NYC. Together with their booking agent and other members of their team, the duo took part in a standing-room-only panel discussion. And if you have been anywhere near their tourbus, you know that Fireball whiskey is a bit of thing for these guys, and the drink was shared with everyone there too!

In addition, FGL also headlined the Billboard Touring Conference 10th Anniversary Concert presented by Citi last night, November 13. It gave them a chance to show just what it was about their live show that made them so successful.

Check out some photos from both events below.
