I have seen a couple of the performers in concert a few years ago. They were awesome. I would love to see them again.

I wish I could be there. I LOVE Country Music!

You know what would really be great? If a Vegas casino bought licensing rights to the Grand Ole Opry! Why should you have to go to Nashville when you could see it in Vegas? I'm sure if they charged enough for the licensing rights, they wouldn't lose any money.....hmmmmm

edit: Hell, they've already did a similar job with the price is right...

Lol I think Vegas is top notch but I would have to disagree when it comes to the Grand Ole Opry. I think it just simply belongs in Nashville. Just my opinion though.
