A Message From a Trio of Child Fans to Easton Corbin [VIDEO]

Mimi — Fri, 14 Jun 2013 16:19:15 +0000

This video message was taken after the Easton Corbin Concert at Railfest in Texarkana, Arkansas in May.

These three children were at the concert and wanted to go to the Band's travel trailer and tell Easton Corbin bye. Their mom was trying to get them to leave so they could go home. She knew that their chances of actually getting to talk to Easton Corbin were very, very slim so I shot this video hoping that would make them happy. Hopefully Easton Corbin sees it!
