The Grand Old Opry - June 3

What a great show at the Opry.  Although, truth be told, I've never been to a bad show at the Opry.  There's always such a variety of music performed by wonderful artists, that it's always entertaining.  Andy and Jenn were with us and we had a great time.  Here's who we saw.

Terri Clark - who celebrated her 10th Anniversary as a Member of the Grand Ole Opry.  She puts on a great show.  I think it must be difficult to be the first artist, but she does such a great job of opening the show.  Last time we saw her she did an acoustic set.  That was also a great show.

Jennifer Nettles - formerly of Sugarland, who was making her solo debut on the Opry.  Personally I'm not a fan of hers - I'll just leave it at that.

Charlie Worsham - who I had not heard of.  Great performer, really plays to the audience and has a variety of musical styles.  He was also playing outside at the Opry Plaza Party.  We have seen so many up-and-coming acts on the Plaza.  He is surely one of them.

Bill Anderson - Whisperin Bill they call him.  He's a fabulous songwriter, LOVES to perform, and we have seen him frequently at the Opry.

Josh Turner - who doesn't love that deep voice!!

The Oak Ridge Boys - I love the energy that they bring to the stage.  We have seen them before and they always come out and make the audience feel like there's nowhere else they'd rather be.  And, of course, they played Elvira!

Trace Akdins - who seemed a little shy at first, but warmed up nicely and is always fun to see.

 Carrie Underwood - Blown away by her vocals.  She's a born superstar and, fortunately for her, she has found her way into the hearts of millions.

It was quite a line-up.  A fun show, and a pleasure to be there!!
