Eric Church Plays Acoustic Show After Flu Hits Band and Crew

The show must go on. After the flu hit most of Eric Church's band and crew, he went back to his roots, performing an acoustic show in Salt Lake City.

Rather than cancelling the show, disappointing thousands of fans, Church took the stage for something a little different. He explained the lack of lights, props and band members, “If you’ve seen our show so far on this tour, you’re probably wondering what the hell is going on right now. Well, so I am. Here’s the deal, yesterday we had the stomach flu strike our band, our crew, everyone. We had no one to hang video, lights, nothing. But I’m still here. I’m still standing. We’ve talked about how every show on the Outsiders Tour is different. Well tonight, will be the most different one. Shit there’s nobody left, its just me. I’m going to give you everything I got. We have a couple band guys that feel ok to get up and down here. Here’s the deal - on Memorial Day we’re going to come back and play the full show. I’m not going anywhere, I’m here to play. Its gunna be crazy."

Church will return with the full band and crew for a make-up show May 25th. Concert goes should hold onto their tickets for the Memorial Day show.
