Hear hear. I caught most of the "pre-game" show on TNN, too,
including most of an interview with Price, who says that his new album
should be out in June. The interviewer was asking him what he does on
his ranch and I was thinking, "Hell, ask him about his pot bust, too!"
Boy, did he sound great, too (a version of "San Antonio Rose").
Lee Ann kicked ass, and Stonewall Jackson was mighty fine, too. If
only WSM would start broadcasting through the internet so I could pick up
the rest of the Opry and Eddie Stubbs.
