Saw on the news this morning that fans camped out overnight waiting in line to get into the Grand Ole Opry this morning for the service this morning at 10 CT. It will be shown live on lots of local TV stations as well as CMT and GAC. I think you can listen in on WSM as well. Here's the info:

GEORGE JONES FUNERAL SERVICE DETAILS ANNOUNCED

Lots of fellow musicians will be in attendance and performing. Brad Paisley, Kenny Chesney, Chalie Daniels, Wynonna, Vince Gill . . . sounds like he will have a heartfelt sendoff.

I watched the service - very nice. Lots of wonderful memories and heartfelt stories. Seems like the country music folks are a real family. One of the reporters on WSMV noted the absence of any of the young country music stars that are current. He didn't mention any names but I suspect he meant Carrie Underwood, Taylor Swift . . . but then their presence might have been more of a distraction than anything else.

What, Carrie Underwood was supposed to cancel a sold out show to come? I read Faith Hill was there but no mention of Tim. Where's the hate on him? Or Luke or Miranda or Blake or Jake or......?
