I'm a fan (and you should be too) because... Truth be told I am probably the only person who was like this or who will ever admit to it. I didn't watch AI after the thrid season. I can't explain why, but I just lost the wonderment I had when I first started watching it. I didn't watch Season 4 at all. And season 5 I didn't watch at first either. However I was visiting my sister down in FL arounf March of that year. Now all my life I have been one of those that loved pretty much all kinds of music but I was a country girl at heart. But I loved several rock songs that I would listen to constantly. And "Hemmorage" and Fuel was one of those songs and band, that I would listen to when I was tired of country. But my sister is a die hard fan of AI and while visiting her, I tried to get out of watching on this particualr night, but my sister refused to let me go anywhere to visit anywhere else. So I was just like, "Blah, blah. Fine I will watch it." and imagine my surpirse when this bald, rocker looking dude came on and pretty much stole my heart and it was because of him I started to watch Season 5. From the moment the man known to us as Chris Daughtry opened his mouth and sang that first line, I was hooked. And I have been ever since then as well.

I was born and raised in NC so when I realized that Chris was from here as well, it was really amazing. We actually didn't grow up to far apart as far as cities and Greensboro is not tha tfar from where I currently live.

Bacl sometime either earlier this year or in the late part of last, I honestly can't remember, I got a phone call from my cousin who works at the Walgreens here in tow and was freaking out because Chris came in the store. I didn't work there at this point but a friend of ours was lucky enough to recognize who he was when he came in and was able to get pictures of him and the band. Kendra was excited to meet him as she is a huge fan as well.

Back in the office at work, a picture that was taken of the band and Chris when they came in hangs in the office and we all wait for the day to where he comes back in.

I don't know why he caught my attention that night but something about that man's voice and his passion for music rather his or other's just really touched me. .

And after finally hearing him in concert last night at the state fair, they are even more amazing to me than they were before.

For a huge fan, seeing the band in person for the first time was really ana amazing experience. And one that myself and about a half dozen friends that can't wait for him to come back or even make that special trip into Walgreens in Kernersville. LOL
