I am a fan (and you should be too), because... Daughtry's entire cd from beginning to end is great! I can't wait to see what they come up with for their second record. I'm sure it will be nothing short of amazing. Chris is probably one of my favorite vocalists EVER. I love his voice! The dynamic between every one in the band is really good, and I hope I get to see them all live again someday. Besides having a "Daughtry concert experience," I've met all of the other criteria for being a super awesome fan I've made it a point to record almost every single t.v. appearance Daughtry has had. Obsessive much? lol. The moment I was introduced to the talent that is Chris Daughtry, I had to get myself an Absent Element cd, which I'm glad I did because those songs are awesome, and as a true fan I have to have everything by the Man Daughtry is just incredible, period. I think I heard something about how the album was the fastest selling debut rock cd ever? That is insane! And it just goes to show how talented Daughtry is.
