Tonight's Opry will feature Steel Magnolia, The Steep Canyon Rangers (which sounds more like a cowboy band than bluegrass), Connie Smith, Del McCoury, Dierks Bentley, and that Scary Underwear chick. Grade: B+! Link: http://www.opry.com/shows/ThisWeek.html (PS - What I'm really looking forward to is this coming Thursday night's Bakersfield themed Classic Country Opry! I'll be in hillbilly hog heaven!) Congratulations to Sunny Sweeney for that win the Texas Regional Radio Music Awards! Even if her Top 40 AirHead Country Radio career continues to falter, she's thankfully become more popular in Texas because of it! (Yay!) Now Sunny can do that "Aaron Watson Thing" and make good money playing every podunk town in Texas. Go Sunny! I wish Wade Hayes the best in trying to recover from Stage 4 colon cancer. Yikes! Wade was playing guitar with Randy Owen's road band in the last few years while fighting this. I heard Wade on the Opry awhile back and his voice isn't near what it used to be back in the "Old Enough To Know Better" days, but he's still trying. I can't wait for all of this Lionel Richie hoopla to go away. He's a great pop singer, but I mean really now... Opry Alert!

I recall hearing about it a few months ago and thinking that they usually don't recommend having a colonoscopy til you hit 50. I wish him well. One of my favorite country male vocalists.
