This is Brooks, and I don't really write a whole lot of blogs. I'm the quiet one in the group. I would like to dedicate this blog to letting all of our fans know that it really means a lot to all of us to be able to meet and interact with all our fans. I'm sure you have heard us mention that we make ourselves available to meet everyone who wants to talk to us. But I just wanted to let everyone know that I will be at the merch table or working my way there every night of this Emery tour. I want to invite you to come up to take all the pictures and signed autographs that you want. I say this only because I think some of our fans are shy. Don't be shy or embarrassed. We are all really down to earth people.

Now that's been said, I'd like everyone to know how much I'm enjoying the road right now. The tour thus far has been great. I feel that we are making a lot of new fans and friends. I hope that some of you are reading this, and if I didn't get the opportunity to meet you this time around, we will in the future. The cold weather’s been a little scary. We have now been introduced to ice -- we quickly felt the wheels of our vehicle slip! Not a fun feeling, to say the least. On one account, we had a car pass us on the left, hit ice and do a 180 all the way over to the right shoulder of the interstate! When we slowly passed by, we saw no one was hurt. I just hope that we can keep up the good luck.

Anyway, hope to see you guys out at the shows!
