Nice to know that you had fun!
Interesting stories about jonny cash and willie.
Yes nashville would definitely be on my list on where to travel to when I'm rich.
EO is out of the top 100 so it better get that platinUm fast.

Its a must see I think I feel the same way about the Phillipines. I mean I need to go to the country that stans harder for Taylor than anywhere else but the travel expense alone is too much
Speaking about the opry though is that Taylor might not become a member and the purists will use that against her but finding out that being a member only means that you get paid to perform there and has no significant value whatsoever made me not care too much about her becoming a member anymore
sad to hear about Eyes Open though

The trip was great. ZZ top and 3 doors down was beyond amazing. The opry wasn't bad either and I found out why Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson aren't members of the Opry. Willie isn't a member because he didn't have the time to commit to playing at the Opry and Johnny basically revoked his membership for the same reason. I know you probably don't care about that but I think disco would find it interesting hahah and about the pictures I will post a bunch once I get them downloaded . Also the Kenny Chesney and Tim Mcgraw show was good too. I liked Timmy alot more and Kenny actually put me to sleep for the 1st few songs but it got better as his set went along .

With Hank Sr.?

That's why CHOF is much more legit that Opry nowadays.

No Hank got kicked out for being drunk on stage too much and some incident (smashed some equipment on stage). He was a member before that though

Oh gosh, makes me think Miranda would do that if she ever got inducted.. She got drunk at the concert here and threw guitars against her stage. She was a mess.

Well thanks for the kind words guys. I had a blast on the trip and I'm so excited to talk to you all tomorrow but I'm dead tired and I need some sleep now

But if Opry is the home for Country legends, no matter how bad their attitude, they should be members of it. They were outlaws after all. And with this, I guess no Opry for Taylor? But CHOF? Possibly.

What is CHOF?

If you're planning to visit, come hete when she tours. You'll see them in their full stan armor.

As for the only if the only that matters is she needs to regularly perform there then no thanks. She doesn't even have time to promote her singles much let alone perform there and satisfy their big country ego.

Like I said before though a member only means you get paid to perform so once he was kicked out he wasn't a member. If he remained a member he would have to be paid the same amount as everyone else and well the opry is pretty cheap about giving out money. We also found out that the opry kicked out Elvis one time and told him he would never make it as an artist and we all know how his career turned out. I do get what your saying though because I used to think being a member meant you were well respected but in reality all it means is you get paid to perform there. Which is why Craig Morgan is a member I guess

Why am I not surprised about this?
She always seems to give me this impression.

Elvis. Elvis ****ing Presley. Don't forget that he wasn't a great vocalist when he first came to the scene. Look how things turned out. And today's Opry is a joke anyways. Nothing to brag about.

Original drag.

Calling Taylor Swift a country artist is like calling John Denver a rapper. Can't blame the writer of the article, though. At least 80% of what plays on WGNA isn't country, either.

Listen to it. You'll hear rock and boogie woogie beats/tempo, not country. That's a fact. Just because they call it country doesn't make it so. It is liked and it sells, but it's not country.
