Preacher, your story is very touching, you are the best !  Your whole band is just awesome. 

I cannot stop thinking of you guys.  You impacted me so much and I am telling everyone of you !

 I just wanted to take a few minutes and let you know how much I have
enjoyed listening to you at Michigan Speedway over the last two (June) races. 
I wouldn't miss coming over to the concert area for the world. The effect that
your music and your presence have on a crowd are awe-inspiring.  I am sure
that I was not the only one with tears in my eyes when you acknowledged all
of the veterans that were present on Saturday night.  Thank you for all that you
do, all that you believe, and all that you are. Amazing!!!  This world would be a
much better place if there were more people willing to give like you guys do. 
I would love it if everyone could see you in concert at least one time to know
what I am talking about - words cannot explain it!!!

God bless you Preacher!!!

Hi ya all! I received in the mail today the set of CD's Melody sent to us.
Thank you all so much! We couldn't stand the thought of not being able
to here your songs for another whole year again, so now we have you
right in our home and cars going down the road! As we told Melody on the phone,
your one of the best bands we have ever heard and that’s not a joke either!
We went to the Sammy K concert at MIS and I tell you, why wasn't you
the warm up band over there anyhow? The warm up band for Sammy K..
well we wont go there!  LOL! I told the wife during the Sammy
concert, it's time to get on the bikes and get back to the infield because '
A Band Called RIVER" was playing. We both smiled and LEFT Sammy's
concert so we wouldn’t miss the RIVER!  We only get down to Michigan Intl Speedway
once a year and one of the BIGGEST reasons we go down to to the
track is to listen and hang with you all. Your band flat out...ROCKS!
What makes it even more special is we are believers in Jesus Christ!
To be able to still rock and include JESUS is the way it should be! We
feel that your really part of our family now for life! You all touch so many
lives through your music, just as JESUS has guided you to do. So keep
on rockin and preachin there preacher man! Jesus is looking down on
you and smiling!


Keep Rockin!

We had a great time in Talladega meeting the band and listening to the great tunes. We talked Saturday night prior to your concert. I had my two sons, Taylor and Jake, and my dad with me. I hope the band continues performing at the races and we would like to know what your schedule is for next year. It truely is great to know that there are people out there who care about other people having a good time!
Take care and God Bless!

Thanks to the entire band for the entertainment and "Message" at the Atlanta Motor Speedway(Sat 10/28/07)
My family and I enjoyed meeting Wesley Clark. He is so kind and "Made my weekend\" I feel like: I had the time of my life. Hope yall had a safe trip back home. Looking forward to viewing your calendar for 2008. Maybe I will have the opportunity to enjoy your group again in the
near future.   I had the opportunity to stand in front, next to the rope and see each Veteran receive the Honor and Respect they deserve.  Very great way to make Veterans feel \"PRIDE AND GRATITUDE\"I have listened to your CD that I received from Wesley. I feel very \"uplifted while listening to the messages in the songs.\"  
Thank you

 I just want to thank you all for everything that you stand for and mean to me! You have been an inspiration since the first time I saw you all in \'04 at Talladega. May God Bless You All! You have placed a stamp on my life that no one will ever realize. Thank you and god bless.

I just wanted to send you a note of thanks and gratitude.  I really had no idea what I was stepping into down in Atlanta.  I thought that the MRO got some band form Atlanta to play at their concert and one of their pastors would be leading some outreach.  I had no idea that this amazing group of people full of talent loaded up in  trucks and came down from Illinois and set up camp to minister to Nascar.  On a regular basis.  That\'s what makes it more special for me that you would allow me to join in and get up on stage and sing.  It was a real gift and I want to express my sincere thanks and appreciation to all of you.  It was a very special weekend for Jimmy and me and I hope we can get together again sometime.
God has truly blessed you all.  He did me this weekend.
Love,
Patrizsha from New Jersey

I would just like to say that you guys ROCK! I saw you perform last night at Atlanta Motor Speedway and I was blew away. I had more fun at your show than I have ever had at any major concert. Your group has such a down home feel to it, I felt like I could hang out with yall. So bassically I just want to say Keep to your roots, keep rockin, and you all are on a path to greatness! I am going to tell everyone I know about yall. Please try everything you can to come back to the speedway in March next year!

I am the young man who\'s father has lung cancer. Me and 2 of my friends were the ones brought to the back of the stage to pray more. I just want preacher and the rest of you to know that i spoke to my father about the prayer service we had for him saturday night at talladega. We spoke about God and everything we are going thru and it was nice. I am giving him the shirt you guys signed for me because i feel it could be a reminder that strangers are praying for him. I just want to thank you again for all that you did. Also remember the young soldier, josh, my cousin. He is the one that gave preacher the dog tags.
Jimmy from  AL

 hey,
Just wanted to say that I was at talladega, and i didn\'t get over to the main concert that you were having but did shake it pretty good to the \"preview,\" on thursday over by the hippy paint bus, I\'m sure if you think back to the girl that danced to every song... that was me! I loved you guys and hope that you will be back next year, and if you ever get to this side of the states, let me know!! ~
