The Busiest Summer In a Long Time

Okay, so gas prices have gone up...........prices, in general, are up everywhere. With all of that, this HAS to be the busiest concert summer I have ever experienced and I've been doing this a long time. The good news is most of these shows are free or priced fairly reasonably. I will tell you....if you like LIVE country music, you'll be getting it all summer. Look how jam-packed our Miller Lite Concert Calendar is at www.eagle97.com. Let me know what show this summer excites you the most.....and the one you feel is way too overpriced to even consider. I'm just curious. Plus if there is someone you would like to see come through here, let me know. We do have some connections , you know...:) Look forward to hearing from you.

Spring and Summer Sports On TV

When was the last time you watched a spring or summer sports event on TV with your kids? I'll bet you can count on one hand...maybe one finger. Here we have a classic pro basketball championship matchup, with TONS of history, and the game doesn't start until close to 9pm.....no weekend day games at all....no early starts....the World Series ...same thing...and now the Super Bowl starts at 6pm and doesn't end until close to 10pm.....and we wonder why our kids aren't into baseball or basketball.....thankfully, the NFL still has some day games!!! I'd like, myself, to see this classic Celtics/Lakers' series but I have to work, just like you, and I have to get up early, just like you.....I'm not up for staying up until Midnight to see the game. I'll catch Sportscenter the next morning and that's unfortunate. And the kids? Why should they care when professional sports has no feeling for them?
