VINCE GILL

Friday-Saturday: Did you miss Vince Gill at the Country Music Association Awards? I've already forgotten who the hosts were last fall. Not only is Gill the host with the most, he is the best all-around talent in Nashville -- singing, writing, picking, ad-libbing jokes. He ranks as one of country's most rewarding acts, eschewing fancy production and just flat-out playing and singing. (8 p.m. Fri.-Sat. $63-$79. Mystic Lake Casino, 2400 Mystic Lake Blvd., Prior Lake. 651-989-5151.)
