That's hilarious. I will say KISS wore more makeup than Liberace

Now he throwed down an awesome show. Way over the top but damn could he play the piano. Funny story, I saw Liberace, AC/DC and KISS all in a 2 week period.

Both of those groups put on a great show.

Also great. Lynyrd Skynyrd, Bob Seger, etc. Dang what a time for great music and epic concerts.

But do you remember the memories? Lol

I can see a lot of you never played Air Supply on a date and it shows!

Pretty much sums it up

I'm glad it's not a 45-70

Unfortunately many of those reports are true and this is based on the amount of direct contact with family and friends, first hand eye witness myself, etc. I have to say I'm appalled at how this area is being ignored in so many ways. You can ignore the fancy press releases. Most I've read are basically outright lies. On the flip side, people from all over have been a godsend. The amount of volunteers, support, goods received have saved countless lives. Below is a post from one of my clients. Basically spot on with what I've heard and experienced.

Beautiful rifle

If you plan on coming toward or near Lenoir City anytime soon I'd take it.

I would agree and feel most of the crap posted on Facebook an such are flat lies, grossly exaggerated, or as stated designed to divide. I also don't think it can all be laid 100% at Russia and foreign countries feet either. I have not heard of any goods or monies donated being confiscated, etc. I'm sure there are plenty of scams. At the end of the day when tragedies such as this hit it is the good in people, COMING TOGETHER, that comes out. That is being shown over and over. May we all strive to be a beacon of hope even in the darkest of times.

Yes they can create curfews, etc during emergencies. Rest assured most in the area did just leave and go look for family and friends. When they shut down local fire departments, sheriff's departments, etc from doing their jobs then it is an issue. The people I'm talking about were trying to work through those local channels. When you hear first hand that the only people actually delivering goods, doing safety checks, trying to get people medical attention are Samaritans Purse, churches, etc., and not any government alphabets, then my opinion they can't walk in and take over and then stop everything. That has happened. I also know that they were ignored in a lot of areas and told to pound sand by some fire chiefs and sheriff's. Basically the incompetence at some of the government people trying to run the show is mind boggling. But then what else is new. These are first hand reports by people I know personally. If the media reported what was actually happening I would hope there would be a massive public outcry but those reports won't happen.

No there is not.

I cannot comment on any of the videos or Facebook posts but I can comment on what I've been told by family members who tried to volunteer for search and rescue. This was direct from family who was standing there trying G to help. They made over 200 searchers sit on their butts for 2 hours today because FEMA told them to stand down until further notice. One even said “let them rot until we tell you to continue”
