  • #charliedaniels #charliedanielsband #cdb Uploaded again with better audio! On May 11, 1996, Charlie gave the commencement address to the University of North Carolina - Wilmington Class of '96. The full speech and some other pieces which were written before the commencement are posted here: smarturl.it/CD-UNCWSpeech After a war of words with the student editors of the school newspaper, 'The Seahawk,' who protested on the grounds that Charlie wasn't a college educated scholar and therefore had no business giving the address to their class. The speech is fondly remembered by those that were there as being one of the best the school ever had. - TeamCDB/BW

    Read Charlie’s book Never Look At The Empty Seats. Those who tried to keep him from doing this and how he rose above them to deliver a great speech! It explains his opening remarks. Thank you Charlie. For everything.

    What is so sad is that he did not earn this but was given it. God rest his soul but puleeze!!!

      Yeah, decades of struggle and persuing a dream doesn't begin to compare to the privilege of sitting in a classroom. And just what, pray tell, have you earned that compares to a 50-year career built upon talent and dedication? I note you don't even speak via your real name, but rather in anonymity. That alone speaks volumes.
