Country music icon George Jones has announced that the final Nashville concert of his career will be at the Bridgestone Arena on Friday, November 22, 2013.
Although still 9 months away, the sure-to-be unforgettable show is already gearing up to be a star-studded event. Charlie Daniels, Lorrie Morgan, Randy Travis, Jamey Johnson, and Gene Watson are the first round of special guests that will join previously announced guest Tanya Tucker to help honor this legendary entertainer with special performances. More artists will continue to be announced.
George Jones, often referred to as the "the greatest living country singer" will mark the end of an era with 2013's farewell tour titled "The Grand Tour." The tour is expected to make approximately 60 stops this year. "I Don't Need Your Rockin' Chair," "Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes," "White Lightning" and "He Stopped Loving Her Today" will surely be part of each night's set list, along with plenty of guests and surprises.
