a weird cool kind of sad southern rock story from years ago

danny Joe brown..the singer for molley hatchet was dying of complications of diabetes among other things and the entire southern rock community was doing a fundraiser for him.

ANYWHO...Danny Joe's son was brought onstage to sing and he was scared to death and wide eyed like a doe in the headlights....and 30 seconds later he was a rockstar.

After he cleared the pipes he belted it for dad.I always felt proud for him that he got over his obvious fear and did it for dad.

Just wanted to share
