Yesterday marked the three-year anniversary of the shooting at the Route 91 Harvest Festival in Las Vegas, that claimed the lives of 58 country music fans.  Jason Aldean, who was on stage when the shooting occurred, took to social media to mark the occasion.

“Hard to believe it’s been 3 years since Route 91. That night was probably the worst night of our lives and not a day goes by that we don’t think about the people who lost their lives and the families who have forever been affected by it,” he shared on Instagram. “October 1st will always be a day for us that is extremely hard to relive. To everyone in the Route 91 family, we love u guys and we couldn’t have gotten through it without you.” 

Aldean’s wife Brittany, who was also there, also posted a tribute on her Instagram account. “ROUTE 91🧡 On one hand it seems like an eternity ago, a nightmare you try to forget. On the other hand it’s vividness makes it seem like it was yesterday. 3 years ago…,” Brittany wrote. “The sound, the chaos, the overwhelming sadness and heartache… it’s something that never leaves you,” adding, “We are thinking of each and every one of you today, and everyday… and to the men and women who ran towards the bullets to protect all of us… WE ARE FOREVER GRATEFUL.”
