It's always a great day when you get to meet Darius Rucker. It's even better when you get two hugs instead of one and the sweetest part is when he stopped his show for something we talked about during the meet n greet.

In the wee hours of Saturday morning, QC-barber-gone-viral, Miguel Rosas from The New Style Barber Shop in Moline texted me a pic of his latest creation. He shaved Darius Rucker in the back of the same kiddo's head he did Cubs' pitcher, Jake Arietta, THE pic that most recently went viral.

I took that pic with me backstage when it was time to meet Darius myself.  He immediately thanked me and The Hawk for playing his music and helping his career along. He's such a sweet and humble guy and really represents country music well. That is one thing I always can say about country music artists. They love and always acknowledge radio :)

Before we got our pic taken together, I showed him what Miguel did...again. He was already familiar with the pic of Jake Arietta that went viral, but got a huge chuckle out of the fact HIS face was shaved in the back of a head. He laughed, gave me another hug and then called over his management team to get my number and have me text the pic so he can have it. I assured him Miguel and kiddo were in the pit and told him to be on the look out for them!

Little did I know, during the show, Darius would stop everything, ask a cameraman to get a shot of the back of the head-shave and share that with the entire iWireless Center! The crowd went crazy! I was so excited for Miguel and Darius to connect. Darius said, "That's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen! I'm gonna get with you after the show." My job there was done!
