I hate Eric Church so much. I think that, more than almost any other mainstream Nashville artist, he is lowering the bar for good songwriting and mature, intelligent music because of the simple fact that he is being pitched as some kind of interesting, deep songwriter in the Kris Kristofferson/Steve Earle vein when his songs are just as shallow, thick headed, and immature as anyone elses. It's like, I'm not gonna beat up Rodney Atkins because his songs are silly because those are his songs and the people like it and nobody is putting him up on a pedestal as what great country songwriting can be. but someone decided that "edgy, deep, intelligent, rebel, outlaw songwriter" was the best pitch for Eric Church, and he's helping to condition a whole new generation of fans to think that country music is for the immature and the thoughtless. Damn you Eric Church! I haven’t heard lightning, just his three singles and sinners like me, that being said.

Eric showed his video on the big screen and it was awesome. The whole show was great. Pat Green and Radney Foster were there during RRB, and Trent Tomlinson showed up for Eric's set.

They provided the most shallow explainations imaginable for their selections. Obviously whomever wrote that article just pulled the Billboard charts up on the computer screen and went from there.
