Grand Ole Opry - Nashville TN

08:30 given our backstage passes for the tour, brilliant got to see the artists entrance, security check in, mailboxes full of fan mail, each member has one. The members board has the names of past & present artists who have been invited by the show's management to join, based on their commitment to country music, the fans & the Opry itself. We toured the 18 dressing rooms & walked onto the Opry stage from the wings. The 'Circle' has not been broken as a circle of the original Ryman stage has been placed here. History of the Opry & the artists that have performed here is overwhelming. This weekend the Opry is celebrating 91 years & we were lucky to get a package deal that included The Ryman & Opry Backstage tours plus picnic lunch, afternoon concert (Crystal Gayle) & the evening Opry Show.Read more
