Chris Young Scores First Multiweek No. 1

Posted: May 18th, 2010 at 11:10 am  |  By: Chris Young  

Chris YoungI had another awesome week out on the Alan Jackson Freight Train tour! We hit the Northeast for the first time on the tour and actually played shows in four states in four days -- NH, CT, NY and PA. The shows were all fun, thanks to you guys coming out to see us! We even pulled a little practical joke on my bass player by swapping his mic stand for one that was only a foot tall. We like to pick on him for being short ... well, short compared to me. No worries though, we fixed it before he had to sing anything. Sorry Shane, just keeping you on your toes! :) Wrapping up the weekend, I found out "The Man I Want to Be" is No. 1 for a second week! I sincerely want to thank everyone for all the support on the radio and the road, and thank you for my first multiweek No. 1! It truly is a humbling experience that I will never forget.

    I adore Chris! He is unique, handsome and so talented… I’m in Sherbrooke, Québec and could not attend any of the closest shows because of work and the kids… But I would have loved it I’m sure of that!!!
    Congrats on the number 1 song!! It is well deserved!

    Ok, what do you mean about during the intermission….are there chances to see Chris at the concerts during intermission?

    Congratulations Chris! You do seem like the nicest guy….and I agree, you deserve all the good things that come your way. Also, love your comments on twitter everyday. Don’t worry, country boys don’t have to be good at golf! HA!
