Eric Church's Surprising Response to Fan Backlash at CMA Fest Performance

Eric Church expresses shock at fans' angry reaction to his CMA Fest set, where he performed rearranged versions of his hits and even covered a Little Feat song. Church defends his artistic choices and reveals that his current Outsiders Revival Tour focuses heavily on his recent albums, "Heart & Soul" and "Desperate Man." He draws parallels to Bruce Springsteen's approach of emphasizing musical exploration and eschewing the hits. Church also discusses his upcoming solo shows in Nashville, where he plans to pay tribute to his late brother and the victims of the Route 91 festival shooting.
