My Eric Church Encounters:
I saw Eric perform live for the first time on October 16th, 2006 at the
North Carolina State Fair. I was on the front row and got some great pictures that you can view on the photos page. After
the show a bunch of us waited for him out by the buses. He signed any and everything we asked for and posed for lots of pictures.
What a great guy! He also talked with everyone individually and stayed until the last person was gone.
Eric's homecoming show at Coyote Joe's in Charlotte, NC on Saturday April 14th 2007.
Eric blew the top off of the joint! A 15 song set heated up the crowd of hundreds that chanted his name. I Met Big 'E' after
the show once again and told him about this site...hope he checks it out. I also met a lot of true devoted fans of our boy!
Eric's friends and family made up a good amount of the crowd. Good Times.
The South Caldwell High School Show was an unbelieveable concert! The Chuch
Choir took over the front row and was right there with Eric through every beat. The crowd of more that 4,000 chanted Eric's
named right before he came on. It was a cool moment for all of us. There was a giant billboard promoting the show that you
had to drive by on the highway coming into Granite Falls, NC (EC's Hometown). I met lots of new friends and afterwards we
got to talk with Eric and the entire EC band.
We had one of the best shows so far in Roanoke, VA on Thursday July 19th 2007. I met
up with fellow Choir member Jennifer and we were front and center for an amazing Eric Church/Crossin Dixon show! We headed
over to 202 Market Cafe for the after party and hung with the ECB and Crossin Dixon! Eric swapped hats with me for a picture
and I let him keep a "got Church?" hat that I had made. It was good times all the way around in Virginia.
We headed out on lake Norman with Eric aboard the Redneck yacht club on a Sunday afternoon
in NC. It was a small crowd of about 100 and an acoustic set. A few members of the choir managed to score last minute tickets
and then we let the good times roll! We took over the front row as Eric played and we sang along. It was a party barge as
soon as the show started. Thanks to WSOC fm 103.7 out of Charlotte for making it a boat trip that I will never forget.
I headed over to Raleigh NC for a Tree Choir event in September. Nineteen Choir members
helped Eric and Driver plant 5 trees in a local park. We worked hard and got dirty! Eric sang a couple brand new songs from
the bed of a brand new white silverado and we all chit chatted afterwards. Then off to the hotel to get cleaned up for the
show that night! We all had a wonderful time together:)
I finally got my first pre-show M&G in Raleigh, NC thanks to my buddy, Nicole!
It was great because we had front row seats and I honestly believe it was the best show that I have seen Eric play. The ECB
absolutely rocked the stage that night! The boys played new and old songs plus a few covers that the crowd in the smoky bar
went crazy for! I don't think the audiance sat down or stopped screaming one time! It was a show that I will never forget!
I went to see Eric and the guys open for Jason Aldean. It was the first show
that I actually had a seat for. I was 10 rows back so the pics didn't turn out as well as I had hoped for but I had fun. The
crowd sat down a lot of the time but the Choir stood throughout the ECB set which I think they appreciated! A M&G fell
into my hands (Thanks B!) and we got to hop backstage and see Eric pre-show! It was a nice time but I had to head home right
after Eric played so I didn't see how Jason did.
Well words don't do this show justice! It was absolutely surreal! A bunch of choir
members made the trip down to NC plus we met lots of new ones as well! We tailgated, drank, danced, laughed, and sang. Eric
and the band put on one of the best shows I've seen since Raleigh, NC and with Lee Brice and the Randy Rogers Band there opening
it was a really awesome night. Eric stuck around for an after show M&G for the hometown crowd!
On the Weekend of October 5-7 we had out first Eric Church Choir reunion in Morganton,
NC. On that Friday night we had fans from all over the country come out to a local restaurant and party! We gave door prizes,
ECA awards, sang Eric Songs, looked at pictures and laughed! On Saturday we stood in the hot sun all day so we could be on
the front row for the ECB! About 30 diehard fans cheered Eric on from the front row that night along with his hometown crowd.
A few of us had M&G's and got to hang out with Eric for a while pre-show...he also took time to sign and hang with the
entire choir afterwards! What a guy:)
I bolted out of work early and hit the road to Jacksonville NC for a Leap Year show
with the ECB! We were a rowdy crowd in a small venue...just like old times! It was an amazing show filled with new material
from the upcoming album, "Carolina" and when Eric sang the title track you couldn't help but be blown away! Ran into EC during
the soundcheck and gave him a little something...in return I got "The Weight" by The Band played for me about half was through
the set (ps: My fave song!). "Miss Lee this one is for you!" and WOW what a job the band did...Ed and Jeff rocked it...both
with solos! Thanks for another incredible show!
