A couple of notes:
7 Opry members on the 3 shows with Larry Gatlin & The Gatlin Brothers the only repeat.
Grand Ole Opry member Keith Urban is on the schedule for Wednesday night. This will be Keith's first Opry appearance on 2023, as another name comes off the missing-in-action Opry member list.
The Tuesday Night Opry is honoring Johnny Cash on the 20th anniversary of his passing. Among the artists that night will be The Tennessee Four, who will be making their Opry debut. The group consists of original Johnny Cash musicians. Kerry Marks, (guitar) with him 5 years on tour. Dave Roe, (bass) with him the last 10 years of his career. Paul Leim (drums) performed with him on TV Special and records, and his grandson, Thomas Gabriel on vocals.
Opry Country Classics this week will feature the Oak Ridge Boys as the Spotlight Artist.
Three solid shows.
Henry Cho is on, so that would put it to 8 Opry members for the midweek shows
ReplyDeleteOf course, he is. My error.
DeleteI confess to disappointment and concern that Marty Stuart won't be on.
ReplyDeleteSame here Anonymous ~ I am VERY disappointed Marty won't be joining in on this wonderful tribute to his former boss, great friend and at one time next door neighbor ... oh yes and at one time father-in-law, Johnny Cash. Johnny's other son-in-law, Rodney Crowell, is in the House. It appears that Marty has completed stopped knowing what the definition of being an Opry member is, that also is VERY disappointing.

John Carter Cash and his wife, Ana Cristina Cash have been added to the Tuesday Night lineup. I should also note that The War and Treaty were originally scheduled to be on this show but did not appear on the final lineup.
ReplyDeleteMarty is currently on tour. Perhaps he took Pete Fisher's "no gray hair on the Opry" remark to heart.
