Happy 40th birthday to Aaron McDaris

Aaron McDaris, John Conlee, and Amy McDaris at Aaron's surprise 40th birthday party in Nashville (12/5/15)This past weekend Rhonda Vincent pulled off one of the most difficult feats in modern American life: a successful surprise birthday party for her banjo player, Aaron McDaris.

The party was held on December 5 at Nashville’s Music City Bar & Grill, co-hosted by Aaron’s wife, Amy. Traditional country music was provided by the Music City Playboys, with sit-in performances by The Grascals, Josh Williams, and Rhonda, herself.

All of Aaron’s Rage bandmates were in attendance, as well as about 60 of his friends from across the US. Other celebrity sightings included Jeanne Pruett, Sonny Osborne, Bradley Walker, Mr. & Mrs. Darrel Adkins, Brandon Rickman, Jamie Johnson, John Conlee, Daniel Mullins, and Dreama Stephenson.

Rhonda sent along these photos so that everyone could enjoy the good time.
