Eric Church | The Blood, Sweat & Beers Tour
ANAHEIM, Calif. (June 11, 2012) – He’s sold out over 25 dates on his inaugural arena headlining tour, but Eric Church’s The Blood, Sweat & Beers Tour isn’t over yet! Special guests Justin Moore and Kip Moore will join Church for the upcoming portion of the tour, including a November 8 stop at Honda Center. Tickets for the Anaheim show will go on sale Friday, June 15 at 10:00 AM at ticketmaster.com, Ticketmaster retail locations or by calling (800) 732-1727. Tickets will be available at the Honda Center box office beginning Saturday, June 16 at 10:00 AM.
In April, Eric Church: The Blood, Sweat & Beers Tour was named No. 11 on Pollstar’s 2012 Worldwide Ticket Sales Chart for the first quarter, confirming the tour was one of the highest-attended across all genres of music from January through March.
Not only has The Blood, Sweat & Beers Tour received huge response from fans, but it has also been met with praise by many outlets including The Boston Globe who wrote, “With his vivid songs, frenetic performances, and outsider allure, Church is a refreshing figure on the country scene.” The Reading Eagle added, “It’s been said a transcendent concert can resemble a religious experience, but this took it to a new level… the 34-year-old frequently exploded from the mic stand, arms pounding his chest, screaming at the crowd to boost an energy level that pyrotechnics and explosions had already elevated… the energy roared.”
Moreover, Church has tied The Blood Sweat & Beers Tour to a cause that will help those in need. Teaming up with Tickets-For-Charity.com, he is giving fans the opportunity to donate part of their purchase price to their favorite charity, and his partnering cause, the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation and its mission to find a cure for diabetes.

THIS IS HOW TRAVIS PASTRANA DOES THE X GAMES AT K1 SPEED!
Travis Pastrana was rudely sent out of the X Games last summer when Andy Scott shunted him from behind during a qualifying round for the RallyCross event. Until that moment, the world had been looking forward to a meeting between Travis and eight-time (and soon to be nine-time) World Rally Champion Sebastien Loeb, whose Citroen WRC team had specially shipped a car from France.
Now in a new episode of the YouTube series, ‘On Pace With Pastrana,’ we get to see the X Games as Travis experienced it. In part one below, Travis meets his idol, Loeb, and the two go head-to-head in go-karts at K1 Speed Torrance. Afterward, Travis and wife Lyn-Z take in the Moto X Step-Up and Best Trick competitions. Check it out…
