Chely Wright music videos give me happy-happy fellings inside.
That is one fine young lady.
Ping.
I like Lt. Dan. He's a good guy, at least the way He treats the troops. I sure hope he brings his magic legs!
Kewl!!!!!
Man, she's hot!
Gary Sinise and his 4 string Fender Precision bass guitar.
U2, Green Day, Beastie Boys, and every Black Rapper you can pull off a crack whore for a few minutes will be doing an sister event for the AQ Relief fund.
"What no Sheryl Crow, no Pearl Jam, no Bruce?"
It's billed as a Country Music Show. I'm sure none of the above were asked to participate. As for Pearl Jam, I don't think they'd quite fit in at Disney World, which is where the event is taking place. :)
Sheryl Crow has done a couple of USO events. I couldn't find anything on the other two. Although Kid Rock did bash Springteen for not going over to play for the troops.
