If you're looking for the perfect date night, might I suggest bringing your significant other to the Hampton Beach Casino Ballroom Friday night to see Chris Young. 

Many would argue a lot of country music today is a mix of country and pop.  Well, I can honestly tell you if you are a true country music fan, Chris Young is not pop.  He is pure country.

I'm a huge fan of artists who have a true talent. If they can sing live and sound like they do on a record, they have my utmost respect.This is the case with Chris Young. If you're trying to figure out your Friday date night, you should get your tickets now. Ladies, if you're looking for a fun night out with friends, what's better than dishing with the girls, having a few cocktails and listening to great country music!

What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

Tonight, Mark and I will be at the Rochester Fair for 'WOKQ Night.'  They're not telling us exactly what we're doing, which kind of frightens me.  You may remember, last year, a cow crashed into my Prius.
