The public grand opening for #88-Dale Earnhardt’s newest business venture — a nightclub, Whiskey River — will be held April 18. The club is located at 210 East Trade Street in Charlotte’s EpiCenter. Patrons can eat, drink, listen to a mixture of rock and country music and even ride a mechanical bull. Log onto www.whiskyrivercharlotte.com for more information. In an effort to enlighten himself and his fans, Earnhardt has decided to forego the role of interviewee to play reporter for his official Web site. The interviews will be conducted monthly and featured exclusively on www.dalejr.com. Earnhardt’s first interview was with crew chief Tony Eury Jr. and is available now. Look for his next installment — an interview with Hendrick Motorsports owner Rick Hendrick — to be posted soon.(HMS)(4-10-2008)
