Jason Aldean brought his toddler son Memphis on stage Saturday night during the first part of his show in Oklahoma  and told the crowd, "This is Memphis everybody. Usually he's in bed when we start our show but he got to catch his first show tonight."

Jason then tried to get his son to speak asking, 'Do you want to say something?" Then, "You having fun tonight?" After no response Aldean said, "He won't talk to the camera," then he waved his son's arm and noted, "It's past his bedtime," and handed him off the stage.

Brittney Aldean posted to her Instagram, "This angel saw his first show tonight (well, partially) and he was mesmerized."

Jason's "Ride All Night Tour's" next date is June 14 in Minnesota.
