Title: Charlie Daniels Band
Post by: Shadetree Callers on August 15, 2011, 01:49:09 PM
Karen and I went to a local fair yesterday afternoon so we could get some sugar waffles and play some games . As it turned out , the Charlie Daniels Band was playing in the grandstands the same day ! Well I'm not one to pass up a good chance to see one of the greatest musicians alive today . We got tenth row seats near the center and watched an absolutely fantastic show ! Half way through the night , it started raining , but Charlie continued to play . And of course we continued to sit in the rain ! It was all worth it though because he put on one heck of a performance ! He played Long-haired Country Boy ( my fav.) , the Legend of Wooly Swamp , Amazing Grace , along with many others,  and then closed the house with a little song you might remember,  "The Devil Went Down to Geaorgia !" Everyone in the place, young and old , were both entertained and moved by Charlie and the guys ! Just thought I'd share some pictures . We sat really close and there were no camera restrictions . I even videoed the "Devil Went Down to Geaorgia " and a couple of other songs !

It was a beautiful Les Paul . It had a ribbon going around it that says "In memory of TC " . I love Gibson guitars !

He came to Bill Collins Ford dealership here in town for a grand opening a while back...I was fortunate to get a ticket for the event, he played in the dealer museum shop inside, there were only about 50 people that got tickets, it was one heck of a show!  seemed more personal too, he talked to people during breaks and after the show...great guy!
