Keith Urban kicked off his Las Vegas residency at Caesars Palace earlier this month, and he says getting to play at The Colosseum was what sold him on the gig.

“I came and saw a show here and just thought the room was incredible,” he tells “Rolling Stone.” “For me, I think what I love about it, it’s three venues in one. You’ve got an arena stage that truly is, I mean the production you can put on a stage is massive. You’ve got a lot of theater seating and a theater vibe, but then you’ve also got this club happening down on the floor where everybody’s standing.”

He adds, “It’s rowdy, it’s a raucous vibe. The three venues that I love playing the most are all in one place.”

And fans who check out the show this year may be treated to some new stuff. “I’m glad because it’s also going to be a good … place where we can slip in some new songs, and we got a lot of new music coming out this year,” he says, adding, “We may start doing songs in this set list even before they’ve come out.”
