I'm a fan (and you should be too) because...Chris and the band are so real and true to their style of music and to themselves. Oh, and they have wonderful music, too!

It's been a long time since there has been a band that writes meaningful, deep lyrics. And what a joy to be able to listen to them at work and not worry about a customer hearing a song with something about your london bridge falling down, or going to rehab, or taking your clothes off! Their music is so universal for all ages, yet has such good subject and direction.

I love it when I can listen to GREAT music with my 2 year old daughter around, and not have to worry about her repeating words that a 2 year old shouldn't know! She bops her head to "What I Want" and sings the chorus to "Home."

There's nothing like bringing a family together with your music!

I was a fan of Chris's when he even first auditioned for American Idol. I rooted for him the whole way, and when he had to leave, I was so irate that I boycotted Idol. After hearing about the offers he was getting, I started to think that maybe it's better off this way! He has so much to give and so many people are willing to take it, and I think that Idol would have hindered him doing so. I haven't done much learning about the other bandmembers, but I'm sure that if Chris picked them, then they must ROCK! I trust you, Chris.

I'm going to a show in a few weeks and I cannot wait! Many sleepless nights until then!

Best of luck to the band, although you won't need luck, as you have amazing careers in front of you and you will be Rock God's for the rest of your lives.
