I got to sing at the Grand Ol Opry today!
« on: April 02, 2018, 08:28:07 pm »
And it was cheesy and fun. My wife and I were driving out of Nashville and were passing by it. Decided why not go and check it out. So, we bought tickets for the tour. What a blast! If you get a chance, ya oughta go see it. Last part of the tour was actually going on the stage. Everybody in the tour group went to the microphone and had their pic taken. I went up there and sang a song I wrote a few weeks back. The crowd went wild! All 10 of them :) lol. Like I said, cheesy, but fun. Wish I knew how to post a video on here.

Cool,
 I used to hang at Ole Hickory lake with one of Billy Walkers daughters.
Great family and good times.

Sleek,
 That is tall cotton!!  I got to go through there in '91 on my way back from short stay at Ft. Gordon, GA. Made it to a filming of "Nashville Now"  Stayed out of the limelight, Got to see it again about '05 while at a convention!  I think that was after a flood and they were still renovating.
