Freedom Festival *edited with details!

Tomorrow is the KIIM Freedom Festival in Tucson, AZ; and Gloriana is performing!

I can't wait to see them live again!!!! I hope I can talk to them again as well!

IS anyone else going? Maybe we could meet up?!?!

No one's going??? Oh well...

We need to set up a meeting! Gloriana Fans Unite! hahahaha

I met Gloriana again!!!!!!

This time I got my EP signed, and chatted with the band (absolutely no pics were allowed this time... )

However, I will post pics of the AMAZING concert either later tonight/tomorrow, if my computer will let me!

i'm happy for you that you got to meet and chat with them & i can't wait to see the pics

Hello Everyone -

I went to the concert in Tucson and enjoyed the Freedom Festival. What a great show with Gloriana, Tracy Lawrence, Pat Green, and numerous others.

I was very, very diappointed in Rachael and Cheyenne's behavior when greeting the fans prior to the show. They were so bored, they could not even smile for the fans. Some of the fans had waited in lines for 6 hours, in 101 degree heat to meet and greet the band. To have the young ladies give a forced smile and not say hi wa pathetic! Tom and Mike at least smiled.

How do I know? I have the sunburn and photos of the band to prove the attitude.

Taylor and crew, Kellie and her band, Tracy and his entourage always, always, are friendly to the fans - wa can make you or break you. Take this as a helpful hint.

Your music may be wonderful, but your attitude needs adjustment.

And, they announced at their show that "How Far Do You Wanna Go" will be their next single!

I'm only a free member on Flickr, so I can't upload videos past a minute long, and I can only upload two...so that lets me out...all of mine are longer! haha

Hope you enjoy the pics!

I didn't get this reaction at all....All of the band members were kind and courteous to me...Cheyenne was a little off, yes, but she was sick earlier in the week: the heat probably wasn't helping her out... Maybe they were just having an off moment? I've met them before, and they've always been wonderful...idk tho, that's just my opinion...I'm sorry your experience wasn't as wonderful as it should've been

thank you so much for the pics!

Hi PhotoGirl8697,

I wish that were the case - however, we were some of the first fans to go through the line for autographs. Thus, she was not in the heat that long. We had been standing in the heat for a longgggg time because we wanted to get their autographs and photos really bad!! What a disappointment, first impressions are really important. I can understand no photos, we were ok with that. But, give me a smile, give me something! It was not only me, but the people around me who also noticed and commented.

My dad, used to be head of security for in Dallas, he saw some major country stars perform when they were really ill, they still smiled and were polite to their fans - because they knew who paid the bills. (Roy Clark, Willie Nelson, and the Judd's were three that he remembers were all very sick the night they performed).

In reply to all of that up there, I am starting to think Cheyenne doesn't like the heat. When I met her in May, she seemed off too and it was deathly hot. Who knows, but when I met them they were nothing but kind. Everyone has different experiences though. You try smiling for however long without a break haha, you're bound to get caught on an off moment.

I love the pictures!!
