Monday night Jason and I went to the Wilson County Fair in Lebanon. This fair just happens to be the largest fair in Tennessee, and on opening night, all 95 counties of TN were represented in the parking lot, as well as 18 different states! Yeah, it's well known and LARGE. Anyway, we found out Darryl Worley was going to be playing, so we decided to try to get there to see him. Admission to the fair was $7 each... and that was all we had to pay!!! We got seats in the 6th row, which was REALLY good, and had a very enjoyable experience.
Some of these pictures are out of order, but at the end of the show, we walked up to right below the stage, and that's what these REALLY close pictures are from.
The picture below shows how far away we were... it wasn't bad at all... and really, the camera makes it look farther than it was.
Darryl Worley is also a HUGE supporter of the American troops and has several popular songs about the wars ("Have You Forgotten", "I Just Came Back from a War"). During his last song he brought out these troops, and they saluted at the end of the song. Notice Darryl Worley in the middle clapping for them too... that was awesome to see.
At the end, Jason decided he wanted to try to get his CD autographed by Darryl. Well, I didn't think we'd be able to, but Darryl Worley's brother and sister-in-law were in charge of selling the CDs, and told us if we waited until the crowds died down, he would come out and we could meet him. So we waited... and we have an autographed CD and this picture. :) He's a tall guy! Too bad you can't see how pregnant I really am in this picture lol.
Anyway, we had a good time, and I'm glad we went, even though I was pretty sore the next day because the chairs weren't exactly the most comfortable!PS-- Be sure you read the other posts I posted today... there are three total!
