Birthdays And Anniversaries For April 23rd + Take A Chance Day

If this is your birthday, congratulations! Here's a look at some things that have happened on this date in country music. 1956-Elvis Presley makes his Las Vegas debut, with Shecky Green and the Freddy Martin Orchestra, at the New Frontier Hotel. Reaction is so negative, his four-week booking ends after only two weeks. 1992-A 13-mile stretch of Mississippi Highway 23 is renamed for Tammy Wynette. 2002-BNA releases Kenny Chesney's album "No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problems". 

This Is Take A Chance Day!!

Gamblers love this day. Yes, life is a risky business, but sometimes you just have to "go for it". Today was created to do just that. After all as they say, "Nothing ventured, nothing gained". Perhaps it's best not to bet the farm, but we hope you participate on this day and win everything you seek.

By the way, if you do decide to play the lottery today, may we suggest you buy only one ticket, because with everyone "taking a chance" today, the odds should be very low.

Now Let's P-A-R-T-Y!!
