"Being the huge fan of Sawyer Brown that I am, I would not be able to rate anything they produce with anything other than 5 stars. However, I do have valid reasons for my rating. All of there music ranges from light to deep and fun to inspirational and moving. I love everything about Mission Temple Fireworks Stand. I saw SB perform the songs on this CD and now when I hear them I can the band performing it. It's amazing. Two of my favorites are "Keep Your Hands to Yourself" and "Ole Kentuck". I think like most fans, "They Don't Understand" is an alltime favorite. To think about the meaning of it creates overwhelming emotions that I'm not quite used to. Sometimes I'm not a very nice person. I get frustrated and irritated and that causes me to do and say things that at are usually cruel and very unnecessary. I don't ever hear the song on my local country station so the first time I heard it was when I purchased the CD. I'm not ashamed to admit that I cried when I first heard it. It really brings you back to reality. I'm one of those people that yells at drivers and criticizes others on the way they handle situations. I don't have that right, and NOW I know it. Before, I wouldn't think twice about it. I was wronged and that was that. Now, I catch myself and immediately regret what I said. So, I guess that's progress. I've still got a long way to go, but I've made a start. So the truth be told, this CD has made me a better person.....it's changed my life. For that, I thank God and Sawyer Brown."

"This is one of Sawyer Brown's best yet. They just keep getting better with each and every Album that they release. The song on this CD that touches me the most is "With You Daddy". I get chills everytime I hear it. "They Don't Understand" get me too. The Boys sing about things that make you want to stop and smell the roses and take time to listen to others and help people without asking for something in return, things just aren't what they may look like. The upbeat title song "Mission Temple Fireworks Stand" makes me want to jump up and sing out loud and do a little dance! I just can't say enough about this CD. This CD is fun, but still has the serious part, just like with any other Sawyer Brown CD I can listen over and over and never get tired of what I am listening to. So Wheather you are a Sawyer Brown fan or just a country music fan, this CD is a must for you collection. SBFC"
