Pigeon Forge and surrounding areas of the Smoky Mountains abounds in musical talent . So we decided to attend a show at the Country Tonite theatre. We were not disappointed as the the show was spectacular with moving tributes to the Military, lost loved ones, Christianity and sounds from the Hillbilly days to the present.
The photos below will provide you with some idea of the place in which it was held and some of the performers.
Looking back from the venue this is the view. There are so many fun parks for children in this area.
Inside the venue which is huge there is a real Texan fireplace.
This is just one part of the total building with very high ceilings.
The building also has a Hall of Fame honouring those of the County Music genre. Here is Marty Robbin's jacket.
Another outfit worn by him.
The show was fantastic. Lots of boot skooting.
Many ballads mixed with old and new wonderful melodies.
Willow was a great singer and banjo player.
Following the show the performers come out and meet with the audience. They are happy to chat and to have photos taken if folks want this. Two of the cast come from SAT so it was good to chat with them.
It was a great 2 hours.
Cheers,
Beverley and Ross
