Rip Charlie. Time to go.

Loved his music along with Dire Straights and Molly Hatchet. Some great music.

RIP, Charlie Daniels.

The Devil Went Down To Georgia. I think that is the only song I know all the words to.

He was a very active member of the N.R.A.

Should expect to see him mentioned in The American Rifleman magazine, I would guess.

Safety, Situational Awareness and proficiency.

Don't make 'em like that any more.

May he be in Heaven 10 minutes before the Devil knew he was dead.

RIP

I once saw the CD Band open for Heart. At first I'm thinking these boys are good, but what am I doing listening to country music at a rock concert? Then they played the song, which I heard live for the first time. (This was just before The Devil Came Down to Georgia became a hit.) Then I thought, these guys are going to be big.
