Eric Church recalls exactly where he was on September 11, 2001 as the World Trade Center towers fell and America was changed forever on that fateful day.
Eric shared, "I was driving into work — the Shop-At-Home Network — I was listening to Gerry House, I remember that, and the news broke. I really couldn’t grasp what had happened until I got to work and saw it for myself on television. I remember I watched the second plane hit the tower in real time."
He continued, "I had just moved to Nashville earlier that year, and all I remember is wanting to go home and be with those I loved. I’ll never; I’ll never forget that feeling."

She loves her life in country music and has been backstage at every CMA Awards show since the late 1990s.
