Grand Ole Opry!

Because the newer Grand Ole Opry House was heavily damaged in the May 2010 flood, the radio show has been temporarily moved to the Ryman Auditorium, home of the Opry from 1943 to 1974. It's a beautiful historic building and also where Johnny & June performed!

What a great experience to be in the audience of the live radio show! And what spectacular entertainment!

The Tuesday Night lineup was: Riders In The Sky
Chris Young
Jimmy C. Newman
Mark Chestnut
During the intermission, we explored the Ryman Auditorium. There's some great memorabilia from Johnny & June. An extra treat!

Jeannie Seely
Montgomery Gentry

Charlie Daniels was incredible. A great performer and a true patriot.
