Cheyenne Mayor Marian Orr presented her first official "key to the city" last night to native son Scott Avett. It was a triumphant homecoming for the Avett Brothers singer who was born in Cheyenne and a special moment for his parents who also attended the concert.

When the band took the stage, they delivered a 26-song set including their first live performance of "Old Wyom" since 2011. Between songs, Scott Avett also shared the story of a family road trip where he and his brother Seth were spooked by a rattlesnake.

"We stopped here in Wyoming. My dad wanted to show us the house where we lived" he told the sold-out crowd at the Cheyenne Civic Center. "As soon as we hit the fence post, it was like (rattling sound). I was like, I'm in the van, I'll see you later."

To commemorate the homecoming concert, Scott collaborated with artist Brian Bojo for a limited-edition poster featuring lyrics from the song "Murder In The City".
