I am not a country music person. I have my favorite songs, but to just listen to it on the radio, it is not going to happen. Charlie Daniels played here the other night, and I was there. Not many famous people come here, so I thought "what the heck". A night out with friends and listening to live music. I rarely will turn that down.
The Scooter Brown Band, from Texas, opened. No one knew who they were, but they are a good Southern Rock band. I tweeted Mr. Daniels to ask who his opening band was. I was thrilled that he answered me!
Charlie Daniels is 79 years old and can still play those instruments like a young 'un. It was obvious that he was feeling his age and had to eventually sit on a stool. It still didn't stop the energy. I hope I get the chance to see him play again.
I enjoy my freebies. There is no secret there. I mentioned the website PINCHme before. Last Tuesday they put out new freebies for the day. Unfortunately, I didn't qualify that day for a box of goodies, but when I looked at my email I was given a free magazine subscription. I chose This Old House....because I have one. I have so many free magazine subscriptions now that I am sure my mail lady cusses me daily. Trying to catch up on reading them is becoming a chore, so I guess I really need to stop ordering them. In reading some freebie sites, I was given a magazine and others seemed to have been given $5. So this site seems to be an honest and good one.
I checked my Ebates account to see how much money I should be getting the next time they mail them. It is up to $15 and change. I didn't realize that I even got money back from my small purchase from ebay. I like that!
