The program had been on the radio since 1925, as "Barn Dance." On December 10, 1927, program director George D. Hay renamed it "The Grand Ole Opry." It was a Saturday night show.
My family didn't watch or listen to the Opry. The first I ever remember seeing it was on Public Television reruns under the banner "Classic Country." My favorite performer was June Carter. You know what's the matter with your face? It's sticking out of your suit.
