- Cincinnati's Show
The best features of the show in Cincinnati was Mint Condition. I could not believe that the headliner let the openers out do him. I was ever so shocked when I realized that there was not ONE back ground singer on stage and a three piece band. I wanted my money back until I reflected on how much I enjoyed Mint Condition. In this time when money is tight you don't come half for your fans. Again I say, I was very disappointed in the show for Cincinnati - singing to track with a partial band - not worth my money. Pull the show if you can't bring it 100%. - 2 days ago
- What Happened ?
I hope everything is well with Eric and his family. I am concerned as to why the tour was cancelled. - 3 days ago
- The entire tour is canceled? Please say it's not true!!!
I received an email today. It stated that the last show will be tonight (11/6/09) but it didn't say why. I then called the ticket office from where I purchased my tickets and they said they heard nothing! So... I think this combo of Eric w/Mint Condition is an awesome combination!! It would be a heartbreat if it was canceled. :( Chilly <-TEBF - 3 days ago
