Latest setlist, career suicide on july 9, 2022.

Note: set ended with what I'm pretty sure was just the fast part of the Circle Jerks' "I Just Want Some Skank"

“Career Suicide” – Eric Church Played An Hour & A Half Long Acoustic Medley With A Gospel Choir During Headlining Stagecoach Set & People Were NOT Happy

That Eric Church , you just never know what he’s got up his sleeve.

Chief has been around long enough that he’s constantly trying out new things for his fans. During his  Outsiders Revival Tour  last summer, Church dug deep into his catalog, left several hits off the setlist, and performed reimagined versions of some of his biggest songs. It was incredible.

He’s also currently in the middle of a 19-show  To Beat The Devil  residency at his new downtown Nashville bar, Chief’s. The intimate shows feature never-before-heard songs and acoustic storytelling from one of the greatest storytellers in country music.

But on Friday night, Church took some time to make a headlining appearance at Stagecoach Festival in Indio, California. And once again, he had quite the surprise in store for the crowd.

Instead of his regular high-energy show, Church stripped it back and performed an hour and a half-long acoustic medley, along with a gospel choir and the occasional brass instrument.

If you’ve ever seen him live, you know that a frequent part of Church’s live show is his “Mistress Named Music” medley where he intersperses a variety of songs from a variety of genres into his own song. Well, this was that on steroids, for the entire set.

And as an Eric Church fan myself, I have to say, it was incredible.

The set featured not only his own songs, but covers of everything from “Gin and Juice” to “Oh Happy Day.”

It’s safe to say that it was unlike anything Church has ever done, and any headlining festival set attendees had ever seen.

So naturally, there were quite a few people who were upset about it:

Obviously Stagecoach didn’t learn their lesson from having Eric Church headline Friday night in 2016 and being a complete energy suck because he’s doing it again tonight. The stream not showing any crowd shots because they are probably leaving in droves 🤣 — Robert Wedge IV (@rtwedge4) April 27, 2024

Eric Church woke up and said fu$% it, I'm doing what I want tonight at #Stagecoach — Liz Kellogg (@LizKellogg_) April 27, 2024

i love an eric church gospel set, but if i was hammered in a field i’d be thrown for a loop rn — bentime (@bentimebentime) April 27, 2024

Closing the first day of Stagecoach gave @ericchurch an opportunity to gain so many fans who had never probably seen him live. The thought process to do a gospel set at 10pm on a Friday night for 100,000 plus is just a thought process I can’t understand. #Stagecoach — Markm351 (@markm351) April 27, 2024

Eric Church might be the most disappointing festival headliner ive ever seen??? It’s like a gospel set?? I’m so lost. — kb (@KennethBaker97) April 27, 2024

This is so bad. Like beyond bad @ericchurch #Stagecoach — Tommy LaPierre (@tlapierre3) April 27, 2024

Eric church is the biggest disappointment tonight at Coachella 🥱 — Collin🕊 (@collinking13_) April 27, 2024

Eric church should be banned from performing. This set at stagecoach is booty — Zack Irons (@zackmirons) April 27, 2024

This has to be the worst set you have ever played @ericchurch — Vinny Ortega (@VincentVinnyVin) April 27, 2024

Wow. This would make me not want to even go to an Eric Church show. What is this???? #Stagecoach — Jonathan A (@goJohnnyA) April 27, 2024

#Stagecoach …. @EricChurch ….dude….masterclass on how to lose an audience…. WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK? — Swervin🇺🇸 (@swervinerv82) April 27, 2024

Eric… Church… why??? This is terrible. @Stagecoach — Nikki Payne (@Nikkipaynee) April 27, 2024

I’ve never seen a headliner clear a fest out quicker than Eric Church and whatever the fuck he’s doing tonight — BECCCCCAHHHH (@eyybeccs) April 27, 2024

Imagine pissing you pants so you don't lose your front row spot for Eric Church and he rolls out with this shit. — I drink liberal tears (@YourMom19535401) April 27, 2024

@ericchurch committing career suicide at #Stagecoach …..painful. Un….fucking…..real Insulting — Swervin🇺🇸 (@swervinerv82) April 27, 2024

Now, to be fair, Church did bring in the band at the end of the show for part of “Country Music Jesus” and “Springsteen.” But it’s safe to say that was a unique show, and definitely not what folks were expecting for a show like a headlining set at Stagecoach.

Was it a bold move? Absolutely. It’s one that most artists wouldn’t even think about making, much less be able to actually pull off.

If you’re an Eric Church fan, chances are you loved it. If you only know “Springsteen” and “Drink In My Hand,” chances are you hated it.

But that’s what makes Church such an incredible artist. Who else would have the balls to do that on that big of a stage?

Was it career suicide like some people are saying? Of course not. Church has heard that time and time again, but it’s never stopped him from taking risks. And that set was a big risk from an artist who’s proven time and time again that he’s not afraid to go against what’s expected of him.

And to be fair, there were quite a few people on Twitter who were loving it too:

Eric Church is killing it at Stagecoach 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 — Shaney Boy (@Shane29008046) April 27, 2024

This Eric Church Stagecoach set is amazing. This is music. — Collin Kottke (@CollinKottke) April 27, 2024

To all the Eric Church “fans” complaining about this set: feel free to sell me your tickets to any upcoming shows 😂 — ✨Chelsea J (@CJlovesJD) April 27, 2024

Holy. Moly. @ericchurch on @highwaysiriusxm is literally taking us ALL to Church!!!!!! What an amazing stream at #Stagecoach after going to @AshleyMcBryde tonight in STL. 🙌🏼🖤 — Shelby (@GTlue500) April 27, 2024

Eric Church, always keeping fans on their toes.

Facing Your Mid-Career Crisis

• Kieran Setiya

Should you cope or quit?

Research shows that many people—even those with seemingly enviable careers—grow dissatisfied in their jobs in their mid-40s. They may regret past choices or feel stuck in a rut. But Kieran Setiya thinks the tools of his trade—philosophy—can help. He says sadness about the road not taken can be mitigated by attending to the people and pursuits that we cherish and wouldn’t have without our careers. He notes that we spend much of our work time solving problems and meeting needs, so we should engage in some feel-good activities (inside or outside the office). And he suggests focusing less on projects and more on process, to replace a “What’s next?” mindset with an appreciation for the present.

About eight years ago I found myself living a cliché. A tenured philosophy professor at a respected university, I had the career of my dreams. I had made it through graduate school, the arduous climb of publish or perish, and the stress of seeking tenure and promotion. I had a wife, a child, and a mortgage. I was doing what I loved, and yet the prospect of doing more of it, week after week, year after year, began to feel oppressive. I would finish the paper I was writing; I would get it published; I would write another. I would teach this crop of students; they would graduate and move on; more would come along. My career stretched before me like a tunnel. I was having a midlife crisis.

Each Friday in May, a new 4-song EP named after one of the four seasons (spring, summer, fall and winter) will be unveiled. Accompanying the music releases is a Japan-inspired animated video series by Tristan Zammit, who has previously worked with Metallica, XXXTentacion, Lil Uzi Vert, Juice WRLD, and others.

ABOUT $UICIDEBOY$:

$uicideboy$ dig light out of the deepest corners of darkness, addiction, hopelessness, and pain. The New Orleans-bred duo of cousins—Scott Arcenaux, Jr. a.k.a. $crim and Aristos Petrou a.k.a. Ruby da Cherry—translate a fight against demons (seen and unseen) into a clever, caustic, and corrosively catchy apocalyptic vision of hip-hop pierced with punk intensity and laced with Southern flows. The world first met $uicideboy$ in 2014. After releasing dozens of projects and playing hundreds of sold-out shows, they’ve generated billions of streams and earned multiple RIAA certifications, including the platinum “…And To Those I Love, Thanks For Sticking Around” and gold “Carrollton,” “2nd Hand,” “Runnin’ Thru The 7th With My Woadies,” “Paris,” and “Kill Yourself (Part III).” Beyond their critical-acclaim from Billboard, XXL, Alternative Press, Pigeons and Planes, Hypebeast, Revolver, and more, they built their label G*59 Records into a bastion of independent talent and home to Night Lovell, Shakewell, Germ, Ramirez, and others. In 2022, the punk-rap duo landed in the Top 30 most-streamed artists across all genres and have climbed to the 92nd position of most-streamed artists of all-time with over 15 billion career streams. Their third official full-length LP Sing Me A Lullaby, My Sweet Temptation marked their 3rd consecutive Top 10 album debut on the Billboard Top 200. The album led to sold-out arena and amphitheater tours in the US and Europe followed by a top-billed performance spot at Coachella music festival in 2023.

Jonah Falco (F*cked Up, Career Suicide)

It has been said that good things don't come easy. This could very much hold true for Punknews interviewer James Hepplewhite and his interview with Fucked Up 's drummer, Jonah Falco, at 2009's Pitchfork Festival. After having his camera battery die during the taping, he attempted to finish up the interview by e-mail, only to have the first half lost to the mysteries of time. What remains is a unique, and candid look into a band that has attracted fans across all backgrounds and musical tastes.

Did your hand heal up? Here are some more questions. I hope the break is relaxing.

Hand is healed or healing anyways. Scabs now, but that's about it.

First, the question I was trying to get across was that Ezra from Vampire Weekend showing up at the 12 hour gig underscored two important things; first, my ingrained hardcore punk rock xenophobia and second that a background of punk and hardcore is more common in the independent music world than I believed. So, given that, what do you think it is about Fucked Up that a lot of non-punk/hardcore dudes feel comfortable collaborating with you guys and getting back into the old groove?

There's a lot of pretense for a potential Fucked Up listener to hack through. All the claims, accusations, legends, associations, etcetera, are way too time and energy consuming for someone to just leap straight into. But those things are also what draw attention to us. I think for the younger set who are only vaguely interested, we seem like a great spot to play polar bear club with the subculture, and of course we use that to our advantage. Some people come out loving the cold water and others rush back to a towel. For the older crop to whom "punk" is a wholly dead tongue and term (and I should be careful not to self aggrandize too much) I guess we represent some spark of otherly creativity that is presumably gone from a music genre that they may or not believe even exists anymore. Curiosity? Maybe a good impression? Concerning our collaborations, that's pretty much us taking a chance on some people's kindness and willingness to be involved in our circus and also a credit to our personal connections! Haha.

So did you actually alert the Chinese government that you guys were going to be playing punk rock and hardcore there? Because, from what I hear, it's a pretty tough place to get in to (or out of for that matter). How did that tour happen?

No, we did not, but it probably would have been really overkill to try and wade through such massive channels considering who we are. North America and Europe are a consumers market and it's easy to tour and be known there. China is still a frontier, especially for a westerner, especially the ones that live there. Our thanks are given to those people for making the tour happen. The efforts of two Americans: One born and raised in the lower east side of NYC, schooled in Montreal, and now running his own bicycle rental company in Shanghai. The other an [expatriate] martial arts champion of Idaho, amateur professional photographer, potential Chivas-China spokesman and an absolutely wonderful guide - brought us to Shanghai and toured us around. If the premise is that nuts, you can imagine what being in China as a "touring band" was like.

Are you actually still a student? On a slightly related note, are your parents less disenchanted with Fucked Up after 6 or 7 years?

Not really an active student at the moment, but that's probably for the best considering our schedule. Eh, my folks are fine I guess. No one's happy all the time, but I think they see what the band is up to and can live with the positive weighing out the "negative" or just ignoring what bugs them…family stuff, ya know? I think I prefer the tacit tension or non tension to the outright acknowledgment. Hahaha. I'm not sure I could handle something like Pink Eyes' dad making badges with the nude image of his son on them, or a pin that reads, "Old Fuck Head," that he wears. Call it humility or shyness maybe.

Any big news on the Rolling Stone/Camel lawsuit?

Plugging along as far as I know, talk to us in fifteen years, ha!

I know you mentioned in an earlier interview that you played some Metal Gear when you were younger. Did you play any of the current Metal Gear Solid series?

I think I was actually thinking of Metal the arcade game. Side scrolling, two kind of Cro-Magnon soldiers running around with giant bazookas blasting their way through planet earth. Manny’s Snack Bar (R.I.P.) was a great place to play.

Do you think the tensions in Fucked Up are any different from tensions in any other touring band, but magnified by a larger microscope and more interviews to vent in?

Actually that's not a bad interpretation of the tensions in a band. Of course things are magnified somewhat by virtue of the fact that they have an outlet to be magnified (constant press etc), but I wouldn't consider our tensions like many other bands' tensions. We're made up of two (once) best friends and essentially a group of total strangers. So part of the tensions came from getting to know one another rather than having previously established relationships going into the whole project. Now, while we spend more time with one another than anyone else (almost) it still kind of feels like we're, "work friends" and while it's great to see one another sometimes - and when you're on vacation maybe you wonder what, "Sally from accounting is up to" - in the down time you'd be fairly hard pressed to find any of us hanging out. Plus, since we can't always understand what the other might be thinking, things tend to get a bit psychological and personal, with no real limits or filter and that's more often than not an unstable and tense environment.

Also, Chris Colohan isn't doing anything at the moment, right? Is it about time to introduce a second vocalist to Fucked Up?

Actually, you should know the man is keeping pretty busy. He's playing drums in a band called Mature Situations, who are fixated on the hatred of the elderly. He's singing in a band called Burning Love, who share a bit of the Cursed sound, but perhaps feature a much more light minded and pleasure seeking version of a vocalist. And finally Chris is running a label called High Anxiety who have the distinct honour of releasing the Omegas (a new-ish band form Montreal) first north American release, among other local bands.

I know this question has been asked of Descendents and ALL, but now it's getting asked of you, since two of the bands you're in are superficially similar: Is there a point where you mine Fucked Up stuff for Career Suicide songs or a part from Career Suicide works well in a Fucked Up song?

Actually, it's interesting I've never really mined a Fucked Up song for Career Suicide, but I've written a few songs for Career Suicide that have ended up on Fucked Up records. Depends on the governing committee sometimes though. A few times I write songs for Fucked Up and they receive the judgment of, "sounds too much like Career Suicide" (which I never think) and so they go back to the drawing board, but not to Career Suicide. "Fixed Race," "Twice Born" are like that, and even "Royal Swan" - though not written for Career Suicide - was briefly intended for a Hungarian Ad agency that needed background music.

Finally, what's the new song that's gonna be on the Cherry Beach EP?

Two entirely new songs. The hope is that Cherry Beach comes out as a 2x7" in the near future. The music has been recorded for months and months and we're waiting on vocals…fingers crossed.

Have fun on the next tour.

Cheers from Colchester, home of Humpty Dumpty.
