The morning of the EP release, Georgie woke up to an outpouring of messages from fans. As soon as midnight struck, the Daddy's Love EP was available on every streaming platform, and the response had been overwhelming.

Sitting on her couch with her phone in hand, she scrolled through comments and messages, her heart swelling with gratitude.

@CountryFan24:
"I've listened to 'Goodbye, Daddy' on repeat all morning. This is the most beautiful tribute I've ever heard. Thank you, Georgie, for sharing this with us."

@GeorgieDay_Fanpage:
"Every single song on this EP hits right in the heart. You can feel how much love she had for her dad. This is beyond music—it's magic."

@MusicLover1987:
"'Daddy's Love' made me tear up. What a beautiful tribute. Georgie, you've outdone yourself."

Georgie couldn't believe how deeply her fans were connecting with the music. She had been nervous about sharing something so personal, but now, seeing the messages of support, she realized that her father's love wasn't just for her—it was resonating with people everywhere.

"I guess I did it, huh?" Georgie murmured, looking over at Morgan, who was sitting next to her.

"You did more than that," Morgan said with a proud smile. "You put your heart out there, and people are seeing just how special you are."

Georgie smiled softly, her heart full. But even with the EP out, there was more to be done. The tribute concert was next on the list, and it was already starting to take shape.

Later that afternoon, Georgie found herself back in the conference room at the label. Her manager, Anna, sat beside her, and across the table were several executives from the label, all of them excitedly discussing the next steps for the concert.

"We've seen an overwhelming amount of interest since you announced the tribute concert," one of the executives said. "So much so, that we think this needs to be a stadium show. It would be your first, and based on the demand, we're confident it will sell out."

Georgie blinked, stunned by the news. A stadium concert? She hadn't even wrapped her head around doing the tribute show, and now it was going to be in front of tens of thousands of people. The thought of it was both thrilling and terrifying.

"A stadium?" she repeated, her voice full of disbelief.

Anna grinned beside her. "Yeah, Georgie. It's happening. Your fans are ready for this. The EP has already blown up, and everyone wants to be a part of the tribute concert."

Georgie took a deep breath, trying to absorb the news. "I mean... if that's what people want, I'm in. I just want it to feel right. It has to be special."

"And it will be," another executive assured her. "We'll make sure of it."

Georgie nodded, the initial shock giving way to excitement. She had always dreamed of doing something on this scale, but she never thought it would happen like this—honoring her father's memory in front of so many people.

"I have some ideas about who I'd like to be part of the show," Georgie said, her mind already buzzing with possibilities.

"Let's hear them," Anna encouraged.

Georgie leaned forward, her excitement building. "I want Dolly Parton to sing I Will Always Love You," she began. "My dad always loved her, and that song is perfect for this."

The executives exchanged impressed glances. "That would be incredible."

"And I'd love for Cooper Alan to perform Never Not Remember You," Georgie continued. "It's one of my dad's favorite songs about memory and loss. I also want Zach Bryan to sing Pink Skies."
