Brad Paisley Pays Tribute To Sen. John McCain

Paisley honored the late senator during a concert in Virginia.

(Bristow, VA)  --  Brad Paisley is paying tribute to the late U.S. Senator John McCain.

During a show in Bristow, Virginia Saturday night, Brad sang his 2005 hit, "When I Get Where I'm Going," and then he tipped his hat to an image of the American war hero that was projected on the jumbo screen. 

The tribute brought the audience to their feet. 

McCain, a Navy airman and long-time Arizona Senator, died Saturday at the age of 81 following a battle with brain cancer.
