Morgan Wallen<\/a> took a few moments to remember Charlie Kirk during his Friday night (Sept. 12)\u00a0I’m the Problem<\/em> Tour stop in Edmonton, Alberta.<\/p>\n Wallen paused the show before he performed his song, “I’m a Little Crazy.”<\/p>\n He told the crowd that its lyrics — which include the phrase “I’m a little crazy, but the world’s insane<\/em>” — have had extra resonance for him since Kirk was fatally shot last Wednesday (Sept. 10.)<\/p>\n “I’m not gonna say a whole bunch on this,” Wallen said, “but this song right here has been hitting me harder in the last couple days.”<\/p>\n He also had a message for Kirk’s widow, Erika.<\/p>\n “I just wanted to let Erika Kirk know that me and my family are sending prayers her way,” Wallen continued.<\/p>\n He didn’t directly say anything further about Kirk or his death.<\/p>\n But in that night’s performance of “I’m a Little Crazy,” Wallen delivered a powerful performance of solidarity with the Kirk family, and shared the pain and anger he feels after Kirk’s assassination.<\/p>\n Wallen’s voice seethed as he sang lines like “For the jeepers and the creepers who ain’t right in the head<\/em>,” and his voice swelled with emotion during the chorus of the song.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, audience members lit up the stadium crowd with cell phone lights.<\/p>\n This weekend marked the conclusion of Wallen’s\u00a0I’m the Problem<\/a><\/em> Tour<\/a>, a trek that has been running since June.<\/p>\n Kirk was fatally shot while speaking at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah on Wednesday (Sept. 10.)
