Amanda Bynes has done so well with her transition. According to reports, she still lives with her parents and has goals she wants to achieve. She is a beautiful, talented young lady - A great role model indeed.

I guess Disney's Raven would be a great roll/role model???

What do you think, Pokie?

You are so right about Raven but of course she's not fat just curvy!! I hope Carrie and Taylor can make the transition. I think Lee Ann Rimes has turned out okay too.

Maybe being a country girl helps? Carrie was so poised on the American Idol finale - just seemed to handle the fame so well. And Taylor Swift - drop dead gorgeous at such a young age. We saw her in concert here with Rascal Flatts - a natural on the stage. I am with you in hoping that they make it!!

I love Raven, by the way. Curvy is a great description! She was so cute on the old Cosby shows! Now a young lady, too!

Fame, money and power all at a early age. So much to deal with. Their cry for help often goes unheard because the handlers are worried about the bottom line and when they are cashed in on to the next one. You know you can't be first only next.

Loved Gary Allen!! The entire concert was great. We just went to see Charlie Daniels Band - I wasn't sure it was something I was going to like. I was truly amazed - at 71 years of age, that man can play the fiddle!! He was just as awesome on the lead guitar & acoustic. Such a true blue American & supporter of our troops as well. Turned out to be an awesome concert for me after all.

Saw Charlie Daniels Band a few years back too...very entertaining!

I've been to all kinds of music concerts at the casinos and the Century Tel Center! I'm a huge rock fan as well! Helps keep me young!

Rockin in the free world

We saw Taylor Swift open this year at the Centurytel for George Straight. She was incredible and absolutely adorable on stage. She made the greatest statement about writing all of her own songs. She said, "Don't ever piss me off, cheat on me, or be mean to me because if you do...I'll write about you in one of my songs!" I think we will see her around for a long time to come along with Carrie Underwood.

Martina McBride is coming in July. Anybody going to see her?

You can't beat the "big" shows that come to CenturyTel for the flash & flair. I have also found that the smaller shows have a bit more audience to entertainer connection. Jason Aldean was awesome at the Strand! Mark Chesnut had that same connection in a smaller setting.

Pokie, are you a Rick Springstien (Sp?) fan? He's coming soon - Horseshoe I think...

TB, I definitely want to see Martina - not sure on plans yet. How 'bout you?

that's Rick Springfield LOL

Yes, agree, I prefer the smaller shows. I've been to my share of concerts at the Union arena in dallas, or the cotton bowl in dallas, or starplex etc..
But give me a band playing in a small club anyday!
