Alrighty, honey, let’s break this spicy li’l country tiff down:

• Eric Church, the rebel of Country music, got his boots kicked off the Rascal Flatts tour back in 2006 for playing longer than his allotted stage time.
• Not one to be told to hush, our sassy Church bought his own tour itinerary, and played in the very same cities as Rascal Flatts, right after his boots hit the road.
• Rascal Flatts didn’t take too kindly to this retaliation – it was like a biscuit that’s too dry to swallow.
• According to Church, this little feud eventually ended when the Flatts came around to see the sense in his actions years later – just like Granny always said, a pint of patience is worth a bushel of brains!

Eric Church: The Coals to Rascal Flatts’ Biscuit

A Toe-Tappin’ Tale of Defiance

Church Ain’t Preachin’, He’s Singin’

Well darlin’, don’t this just butter your biscuit? Good ol’ Eric Church, the Johnny Cash of our generation, gave the Rascal Flatts a piece of his country pie and they didn’t seem to like the taste. That’s right, this sassy showman got the boot from them back in the day, but did he cry in his cornbread? No siree bobtail! He laid out his own welcome mat and made his voice heard. Years down the road, when the dust settled, them Rascal boys saw the error of their ways. They finally figured out that Church wasn’t derailing their gravy train, he was just addin’ a little extra pepper to the pot. Now ain’t that as endearing as a cactus in a heatwave?
