    Charlie Daniels passed away

    Just heard. Sad, he was a good performer and his heart was in the right place.

    We saw him do a concert a couple of years ago in Salina. Good performer even at that age and good commentary when he wasn't singing, reminiscent of the way Marty Robbins used to do.

    Charlie lived a colorful life. Respected in his professional entertainment world.
    Admired by many for his Conservative & Patriotic beliefs. Wonderful man.
    I will miss him as a Twitter friend and follower too. ☆ R.I.P. Charlie , you were bigger than life.

    Sad to hear this. I love his music. I think he was a down to earth man too.

    I met Charlie when he was in Jacksonville a couple years ago. Very talented, very interesting and a God fearing man who I respect highly. RIP Charlie.

    Always one of my favorites as a performer and person

    I also saw him in concert a few times in the 70’s and early 80’s. Uneasy rider is still one of my favorite songs. Rip Charlie Daniels!

    Thanksgiving of 81 or 82 (it's been a long time) he was touring Germany but wanted to celebrate Thanksgiving with soldiers. He joined us in the mess hall at Merrell Barracks in Nurnberg and seemed genuinely a nice guy. After dinner he had a table where he sat for hours signing autographs and taking photos with soldiers and still put on a great concert later that night. I know cause I went to it. I always thought highly of him after that and still do.

    The wife and I and another couple saw him in concert. It was awesome. It seemed his energy was boundless. RIP Mister Daniels.

    This really is horrible news! I think he would have been at least a 1 or 2 star general in the war to take back our country!

    Saw him in concert with Travis Tritt less than a year ago. Great show and true gentleman, but at 83, he was understandably unable to play the fiddle and guitar like he used to. They had a stand in guitar and fiddle player off to the side of the stage doing the actual playing.

    Still, he was a great showman and I'm thankful that I got to see him live one last time.
