Gettin You Home (the black dress song) officially became Chris's first #1 hit Monday Oct. 12, 2009.  All of Chris's fans and family are so proud of him.  For me, this has been one awesome roller coaster ride since Nashville Star where I voted for him every week and joined his fan club in December of that year. I first met Chris in person at Cowboy Up in Bluefield WV in Feb. 2007. Of course I did the normal picture, autograph thing while there but the part of the evening that made this most special for me was after the show.  He came back in wearing a baseball cap and very incognito until I saw him.  As he walked away from the owner of the club, I yelled hey Chris.  He came over and took the time to talk to us and give me and a friend a hug and my son a handshake before leaving to climb on his bus and head to North Carolina.   Of course his voice and music had made me a fan, but the fact that he cared enough about a fan to take that extra few minutes stole my heart.<br />I am so proud of Chris and so happy to have been a part of Young Country for the past three years.  Chris, once again, Congratulations.  You have worked so hard for this and you so deserve it.]]></description></item><item><title>Awesome band: The Elms (08-13-2009 14:03:41)</title><author>sstanny23</author><link>http://newcountrystar.forumco.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=139</link><ttl>10</ttl><pubDate>Thu, 13 Aug 2009 14:03:41 +0100</pubDate><description><![CDATA[ Hey Guys,<br /><br />Check out this band called "The Elms"<br /><br />They are an awesome alt. country band, and you can find their music on their myspace page.
