Today is F-Day and I am in Lawrenceburg awaiting the big event. Traffic here is already busier than usual and I’ve seen one limo and several RVs.

Along with Fred, there are supposed to be secret surprise guests, though at least one is not exactly secret or a surprise: Big & Rich. I have my sources that say Jon Bon Jovi will be in attendance as well, though we’ll see. Rumors of Garth Brooks and others have swirled around as well.

Most of the businesses in Lawrenceburg have “Welcome Home Fred” on their signs, or some variation thereof. There is a palpable feeling of excitement in the town, and I am getting pumped about the big moment. More tomorrow, when I hope to post some photos and will talk about the event. Fred 08!
