With just one day till opening night, Carrie Underwood posted a video to her Instagram to show off her new show's pyro.

After her tech guy shows her what will happen, Carrie says in the video below, "That was our pyro that we are gonna have on stage. There's gerbs, and some bursts and some flares. It's gonna scare me. Someone's gonna warn me right before it happens and it's still gonna scare me. That's the fun."

The "Cry Pretty Tour" kicks off in Greensboro, North Carolina tomorrow night (5/1).
