“I will never forget this moment, because in this moment everything I have ever wanted has just happened to me. This is my band ya’ll, they’ve stayed with me every night this year. And the fans who come to the shows with the shirts that you made yourself and the looks on your face, that’s why I do this. Thank you for this moment, thank you.”
“I can’t even believe that this is real. And I want to thank God and my family for moving to Nashville so I that could do this. And um, I want to thank country radio, I will never forget the chance that you took on me. Brad Paisley, thank you for letting me tour with you. Scott Borchetta, Rick Barker, everybody at Big Machine Records, and the fans…you have changed my life! I can’t even believe this and this is definitely the highlight of my senior year.”
