Dulles, Virginia Sean Hannity, nationally syndicated radio personality and the co-host of Fox News Hannity & Colmes, has teamed up with Freedom Alliance to raise money to provide college tuition for the dependent children of soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines who have been killed or permanently disabled in the line of duty. Over the past two years, Hannity and his listeners have contributed over $4 million to this great cause.
Hannity, 77WABC Radio Americas #1 News Talk Radio Station and Six Flags Great Adventure, along with Freedom Alliance, will host the third annual Hannity Freedom Concert on Friday, July 8th at Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, New Jersey to pay tribute to the men and women of our armed forces. Hannity will broadcast his popular radio program from the park from 3:00 pm-6:00 pm EST followed by the Freedom Concert featuring country music superstars LeAnn Rimes, Buddy Jewell and Aaron Tippin. LtCol Oliver North, USMC (Ret.), the host of War Stories on the Fox News Channel and the founder of Freedom Alliance, will also appear at the event.
Sean Hannity is a great friend, and we appreciate the help that he and his millions of listeners are providing for the men and women of our armed forces, said Oliver North who founded Freedom Alliance and serves as the organizations Honorary Chairman. The money raised through this effort will have a profound and lasting impact on the sons and daughters of Americas military heroes.

I won four tickets to the event from WABC 770AM.
Since I had already purchased my tickets, I donated two to Ft. Monmouth and two to Naval Weapons Station Earle so that some deserving service members and their spouses can go to the concert.

Thanks for the ping!
Thanks for the ping.
Sean Hannity is a 'Great American' bump!
I hope we get an after-report from the FReeper attendees. Hint, hint....;-]
Especially some nice digital photos of the event.
I went to the first two concerts. Awesome both. I'd be there this Friday too except I have an obligation on the West Coast. Can't believe he got Lee Ann Rimes this year.
You're going, LonePalm? We will be there also! We plan to arrive during Sean's live broadcast... I'll have to try to wear something "distinctive". Unfortunately, it might be a bright yellow rain slicker... :-(
Here's another thread about the concert... looking forward to seeing you again. :o)
Are you going to this event? Zelig and I will be there...
In memory of those who were murdered today in London, I will also have a Union Jack with a silhouette of Parliaments Building on it.
Wonderful, mware. I'm so proud of you and all the patriots in attendance.
So, you saw Martina McBride two years ago and Sara Evans last year?
So I hear it will be rainy in the morning. I plan to get their sometime around 10. Think I will hang out by the cafeteria that (if I remember correctly) has an ice cream cone shaped roof. I will be wearing my PAJAMA PATROL DEPUTY shirt, and carrying the US & UK flags.

WONDERFUL! What a statement you will make. OK, the official FReeper gathering spot at Sean's live broadcast (3-6pm) will be under your flags. I'm sure Sean will notice them... wonder if he'll say anything.
I was also at the last two concerts... Martina and Sara were awesome! They have really powerful voices. Martina is so tiny, too... amazing to hear such a "big" sound come out of her! ;-)

Please note: FReepers now have an "official" meeting place at Sean's live radio broadcast before the concert tomorrow (3-6pm). We'll gather near mware's flags (see above). I guarantee you won't miss them! :o)
Reminder bump for Sean Hannity's live radio broadcast and concert tomorrow at Six Flags in NJ. If any of you plan to be there, see post #37 for the FReeper meeting place at Sean's live radio broadcast (3-6pm ET).
Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my FoxFan list. *Warning: This can be a high-volume ping list at times.
I hope there will be pictures tomorrow :-)
I'm afraid I don't have a working digital camera... someone else will have to take photos. If Sean shows some of the concert on Hannity & Colmes perhaps someone can post screen shots? (I don't know how to do it)
