Mike Huckabee makes surprise appearance at Legacy Five event

Posted in: News — Daniel J. Mount @ 7:06 am

For the last several years, Legacy Five has brought in surprise guests for their Memorial Day Celebration event in Nashville. This year, they brought Mike Huckabee. He made a speech and then played bass guitar as the group sang “I’ll Fly Away.”

Mike Huckabee is the former governor of Arkansas and ran for President in 2008. (He out-lasted all other candidates besides the winner, McCain.) He now hosts “Huckabee,” a number one rated program on the Fox Channel, and hosts the “Huckabee Report,” which is aired nationally three times each day on the ABC Radio Network.

This might be a long shot, but did anyone reading this catch “I’ll Fly Away” on video?

    Remember during the elections? You posted an entry with a video of Mike Huckabee playing the song on his bass.

    Yes, I do remember that, and that was cool. But it would be so much more cool to see him on stage performing with L5. :)

    My hope is that Legacy Five did a video of the complete appearance/performance. Knowing how frequently they release new videos, they probably will include it in a future video. I’d still like to see the performance on an amateur video though.

    I really would love to see a video of that!!!!!!! Mike Huckabee is one of the very few politicians that give me hope for the future…

    Oh, wow! I am a big supporter of Huckabee and a fan of L5. I follow very regularly news about Huckabee, but this is one thing I had never heard about. I haven’t been on your blog in awhile so I just now saw this. It’s very cool!
