Brenda and I were suppose to go to Houston's Theater Under The Stars Friday night to see "Twelfth Night" but it rained earlier and look like it would again. So I was reluctantly resoled to going to going Saturday night to some other long since forgotten Shaksperinan lore. When much to my surprise Brenda came up with tickets to Sean Hannity's Freedom Concert. What a great evening!

Lee Greenwood, Charlie Daniels, Michael W Smith and Billy Ray Cyres. But, for us the night is not about country music, not even about patriotism it was about the crowd!

We had been to the "Theater Under The Stars" to watch Lauretta Switt from MASH fame in "42st Street" it was a pleasant evening until we were leaving and suddenly the crowd turned vulgar. Very vulgar with what seemed like variations on just two adjectives repeated loudly over and over again. All this from a group dressed like adults not street people. Not derelicts.

It's the behavior of anonymous masses that destroys a great evening. It's the behavior of Hannity's audiences that restores my faith. To be in a crowd of thousands where the most dominate four letter words are "love" and "vote" is such a pleasant change. To be in such a group with no personal ulterior motive, was so pleasant.

We had a similar great time two years ago in San Diego see: Humble Patriotism

It was a great evening surrounded by great people.

Bill, Sounds like you and Brenda had a wonderful night. I need to take TLW out one of these days. It's been a long time since we have been out after dark.

Sage, my friend,

Sean Hannity's Freedom Concert is a long way from "some long forgotten lore!"  And from Shakespeare.  Bet you had more fun, though!  Good for you, Brenda!

Mike,

You better believe we did!

But, we do have varied interest. Once upon a time between high school and the Marines I was a serious lit' student. That's what you do when you're a journalist who can't spell!

I was young and foolish. I didn't know right wing polatics and journalism didn't mix.

Bill I have never been to one of Sean Hannity's Freedom Concerts, but from what you wrote I think it would be something that I would truly enjoy.

George,

This was our second, it a great cause, the proceeds go for collage scholarships for servicemen kids who lost a parent.

But, the crowds are just so pleasant. I love people watching, but equate the vulgar with stupidity! Yes, if I'm tired I can be vulgar, but at least it shames me. I do my best to avoid it and those with no shame. I chose my companions.

Bill - the quality of the crowd can add so much, or take away so much, from the enjoyment of an evening. Glad you and Brenda had a great night.
