NASHVILLE, TN (October 1, 2013) – Earlier today (10/1), Florida Georgia Linerounded up some of their "party people" for an exclusive sneak peek at their first major headline tour – HERE’S TO THE GOOD TIMES TOUR 2013. Hundreds of fans and members of the music industry community gathered at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena to watch the breakout duo's final rehearsal before they embark on the 32-city tour, which kicks off this Thursday (10/3) in Brookings, SD. The CMA nominees began the concert preview with the exciting news that HERE’S TO THE GOOD TIMES…THIS IS HOW WE ROLL, a deluxe version of their chart-topping debut album is slated for 11/25 release on Republic Nashville.
 
The hot newcomers were surprised with a special presentation commemorating several recent career milestones.
