Johnny Cash absolutely did not need Nashville or the Grand Ole opry.
Dwight Yoakam wasn't good enough either
Pretty sure most of Cash’s albums were on columbia nashville and recorded in Nashville
Neither does Willie.
@@patbrennan6572 yeah well, he made a lot of money there in his early years getting started. Back when he had short hair.
Johnny cash was bigger than grand old oprey
"Hell, they didn't even really want Johnny Cash back in '74, and the Grand Ole Opry ain't so grand anymore." - Shelton 'Hank III' Williams
all singers should tell opry to shove it
Y
Minnie Pearl was banned? I'd love to know the story behind that.
Sounds like a group of control freaks to me. And I personally don’t like to be controlled. Good for the good ol’ boys who march to their own beat 👍🏼
Amen to that!!
Nashville Music is run by a few Die Hards.
Any group has a RIGHT to have their own standards. If you don't like it, start your own show.
@@ffjsbBoy, how Sharp are you ffjsb, you didn't like the New Country Stars? Just, Minnie,June,Roy Cuff etc. Seems to me the Circle turned Oval.
@@FatLu-zu2fb WTF are you talking about son??? You clearly pulled that assumption out of your ass. I love Johnny, but he showed his ass on stage and caused a LOT of damage. Go cry somewhere else son, you're a perfect example of what happens when you give every loser a participation trophy. Don't like it?? Start your own thing. I bet you'll have rules too. Not like you have a chance in hell of even playing on the curb in front of the Grand Ole Opry...
Never knew he was banned, never would've mattered. True artist March to their own drums.
Banning him from the Grand Ole Opry was a truly dumb mistake. Shame on them.
They did him a favor !
As I said, I had never heard of Opry, and thought Johnny Cash was banned from Oprah, and intigued,, but soon realised it was not a spelling mistake.
Rumor has it that they told Stonewall Jackson his presence was no longer needed. They wanted younger entertainers. Willie Nelson and George Strait made the right decision to now join this group.
i understand everything now. The Grand ole Opry is like The Oscars! I KNEW THERE WAS A CONNECTION!
The HELLywood puppeteers want a piece of EVERYTHING they can get their claws into. Jus' take a BODY count of ALL the actors who've committed suicide since the beginning of the industry. Tinseltown is the devil's PLAYGROUND.🔥👹🔥
🎶 Take this job an shove it, I ain’t working here no more 🎶
went to the GOO once and hated iit ,,,, could not waite to get out that building ,,,, it was horrible ,,, I took a panic attack,,,,
Williams and Cash... this is the foundation!
Hank Williams was the very best of that whole bunch, encore after encore, no one will ever match his talent when it comes singing a good old country song. Wow his voice was simply amazing and so smooth. He's the man that put Nashville on the map as the music City of the USA.
The American icon Toby Keith was not a member of the Opry either. He didn't want to be cause he didn't live in Nashville he stayed in Oklahoma. May he R.I.P. We missing you Big Dog! And as I've seen in researching what the Opry expects from their members I hate to say this but it seems like they are way to controlling and trying to run the artist lives. That's not how it works.
I could care less actually. But the fact Hank Williams, Willie and Cash weren’t involved doesn’t say too much about them.
They didn't want Williams either? Boy they are dumb.
It's I COULDN'T care less
How much less could you care?
I will never spend a minute in Nashville, other than driving through on I24!
There's too much crime anymore and too expensive
The Grand Ole Opry is supposed to be the "Mother Church of Country Music", however, what many don't know, is the fact that the Opry has also been known to play Favoritism from time to time as well. Johnny Horton was never a member of the Opry, and the Absolute best Quartet in Country Music, AKA, The Statler Brothers were also never Members of the Opry either. Johnny was never invited, and when the Statlers were asked to join, they turned down the request, partly because of their Touring Schedule, but also because they never performed any Drinking/Cheating Songs. Their Material was all about their Memories from growing up in Virginia, and later on in their years, they began having less hits until Jimmy Fortune stepped into the Picture.
Mother church of satan.
The Grand Ole Opry once fired Hank Williams when he was at his peak. Think about that. It's like they are their own worst enemy.
Love It countrycast.
Country cast is awesome
Hank sr. Was the best
Thank
I think Groucho Marx said it best about being offered membership in (I think) the Friars Club when he said he wouldn't join any club that would have him as a member..
The Opry is kinda whack. Like i know Hank Sr. was strung out on morphine and booze but he was also one of the best to ever do it. Hank 3 blew up the Opry pretty good on multiple songs. This video was great! 👊🤠🍻
he had spinal bifida
@@hankwilliamsfan1986 I ain't saying I don't blame him. back then, I would have been a ton of morphine for that spine disorder because that would really be the only thing to help the pain. love ol Hank. love Hank Sr., Hank Jr., AND Hank III, actually. can't say I'm a big fan of IV's music yet but hoping he gets...better. lol
The grand ol Opry needed cash get it straight, cash didnt need the opry
The motion picture industry has the old actors home in Calabasas; Country Music has the Grand Old Opry
Two many rules!! Some people who are in don't belong!! And lots of people should be in but are not!!!
Too, not two.
@@patriciajrs46 Thanks You are right!! Wrong spelling!!❤
FYI Minnie Pearl was a member until her death
Most of us that’s 80 years old or so remember back in the days of cash Willie Nelson, Chris Kristofferson, David, Allen Cole a lot of those people back then in the 60s was going through a trend change it was the time for hippies dope smoking getting wild and doing anything you wanted to do if you didn’t want to comb your hair, you didn’t have to the Opry had standards for people to follow and commitments and if you didn’t want it enough to comply that was fine but they wouldn’t have you on the Opry if you showed up drunk, doped up or anything else You blew your chances. They had a handful of people that did exactly that the industry preferred to them as outlaw country people. Mainly because they were so rebellious.
"[I would never belong to any organization that would have me as a member.]" - Groucho Marx
I'd rather be on the banned list then the member list. Sounds like its more fun....and distinguished. And as that great old country singer, Groucho once crooned...."I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member."
I thought the Opry demanded members appear every 2 weeks and Johnny couldn't afford that also they said he didn't want him after he was arrested and he was a bad example and not their kind of people, he said he didn't care, he appeared there but was never a member per sei 😎
It is like the Opera is banning itself since we are connected.
The Opry used to mean something &had a semi sacred ora about it,but in the last 20 + years the powers that be has turned it into a Side show,a modern day circus.
I'm surprised Minnie Pearl was banned 😮
Before the Grand Ole Opery was the NATIONAL BARN DANCE broadcast on WLS Radio in Chicago 1924, a year before the Grand Ole Opery.
Love to know why Minny Pearl was banned. That came as a surprise.
Sounds like when you get to an age they no longer want retired performers. They never make the money these modern day performers do. So treat them like trash and they go away.
They should be a member of the grand old opera al of them it's really sad when that happens
Johnny CAsh is and ever will be the only like him of his kind , I walk the line
"F" THE OPRY!!
Minnie Pearl was banned? Do a story about that.
Let's bring death metal to the Grand Ole Opery 🇺🇸🎸✨✨✨✨🤟
The GOO didn't miss a beat making money from singers they rejected, once they died. Bobby Bare was right about Nashville being rough on the living
BEEN THERE,PLAYED THERE,BUT NOTHING BUT A BUNCH OF OLD POOTS MANAGEMENT I DIDNT LIKE OR NEED...
After Roy Acuff passed away it was never the same. And I don't think roy even agreed with how they handled everything .
King George didn’t need the Opry since he had the Lone Star in his guitar case! 😎❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
❤😁
The reason that Hank was "banned" from the Opry, is that Hank quit.
no he didn't
@@hankwilliamsfan1986
Hi hankwilliamsfan1986! I got that comment from a RUclips interview with one of Hank's old friends (I don't remember the name.).
Yes, Hank did quit, and I have great respect for Hank for making that decision. Hank showed up for a show, and then left before the show began, and didn't come back. That's why Hank was "fired". I call that "quitting". Hank was tired of the HARM imparted, by the Opry's grueling, relentless demands.
It makes sense. The MANAGEMENT of the Opry sucked. Opry needed Hank way more than Hank needed the Opry.
hankwilliamsfan1986, we do agree on one thing - we're both huge fans of Hank.
The Grand Ole Opry, over the years, has way over estimated it's own importance ! These so called "banned performers" needed the Opry like they needed a hole in their head ! The Opry needed them a lot more than they needed the Opry ! The only thing George Strait ever wanted or needed, was San Antonio !
I understand his struggle because of how bad his Father treated him and how hard June and her family worked to get him off all those drugs and literally had to pull out a shotgun to run off drug dealers to get him sober and his struggle wasn’t with pot it was pharmaceutical and street drugs other than pot. Glad Mother Mabel, her husband Mr.Carter, and June run off the people who were messing up his mind with really harmful abuse of drugs that weren’t healthy for him. I don’t think any of them should have been banned however I love Opry music.
Who cares about the GOO. I respect Johnny Cash more than just about anyone.
The Opry makes the artistes? ....surely the artistes make the Opry worth watching. It's all old fashioned now anyway.
Dolly Parton in rock n roll hall of fame..Johnny Cash not allowed at grand Ole Opry . Males can be females visa versa. WHAT A WORLD!!!
And the Opry kicked out Hank Williams, and then pretended he was a member for decades after his death?
I still love listening to The Grand Old Opry stuff of ages past, but the people running it in the past turned out to be slime-balls only concerned with lining their own pockets, or fulfilling their own agendas!
As I said, I love me some Grand Old Opry, and I love Bakersfield and the Outlaws. I can even listen shamelessly to Chet Atkins' versions of string-country, as that was part of the compilation albums of when I grew up in the seventies.
But the 'Grand Old Opry' lost its shine for too many of us way back when...
You're in good company Johnny - they axed Hank Williams as well!
For a while Johhny was as popular as Elvis.
Why was DeFord Bailey never invited on stage anymore? He was very popular but suddenly Grand Ole Opry decided he wasn't welcome.
He wasn't racist enough !
@@fposmith You don't even know who he was. Maybe it 'was the Opry that was too racist.
Too bad for the Opry people. Kind of sounds like the same old favoritism the R&RHOF does, not letting extremely talented people and bands in, but letting lesser talent in. Even acts that aren’t Rock & Roll. Boo ….
This new country music sucks, like the song says it don't have the same sole , Bob seger said it best
did the opry pay much......or was ur performace supposed to get you bookings....
Why can't you let the man rest in peace..?
Wasn’t Dierks Bentley also banned?
Is he a country artist?
@@MyDyerMaker Yesss!
If Hank Williams and Johnny Cash aren’t in, then who cares about them. And Minnie Pearl? Are they nuts? The grand ole opry and Nashville are all about money and power.
Cash, Willie Nelson, and their contemporaries are progressive performers, they're not traditionalists, they just think that country music has more to offer than what it is. On the other hand, G.O.O. is all about tradition and "preserving" country music.
😮
🎉❤
Funny that they reinstated Johnny Cash in and he did far worse than Hank Williams...
His grandson Shelton(Hank III) was right bunch of hypocrites as they gave an Hank Williams impersonator to great people at the Opry😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Why were Skeeter Davis and Minnie Pearl banned?
I'd like to know that too.
My guess is that they committed the unforgivable sin of getting old and not b appealing to young fans as per corporate directive.RBC
HOA of music
BLA BLA BLA
Reinstate Hank Williams to the opry
That would be a hollow gesture !
Time to boycott the ungrand old opery. no money no funny...
So when a crapper (country rapper) has a bunch of rap-loving fans and lives in Nashville so they can appear over and over, congratulations! You're a new member of the Grand Ole Opry!
That makes almost no sense.
You really shouldn't be sticking up for the grand ole opry...first off this isnt even opry...and banning people is pathetic. They are legends. their expectations are pathetic. It is designed to attracted non alcohol or drug users by the sounds..which is also quite pathetic in america. those things are what bring the magic.
Get to the story ! Very boring !
Its just like rockin roll hall of fame a huge joke and waist of time and money
Did the Grand Ole Opry go woke too?😂
The Grand Ole Opry isn't much today!
Actually, it's not even country music.
It's all bull shit, horse shit, and Libturdism. MONEY, MONEY, MONEY.😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Reinstate Hank Williams
Williams was drunk/stoned and unable to perform when scheduled twice. In addition, while leaving, assaulted staff. Cash, stoned/drunk during his performance did shatter all the lights which caused a small fire, as well as, exploding Hot Glass was showered into the first 6 rows which resulted in 10+ being taken to St. Thomas and Baptist Hospitals. He also assaulted staff and urinated in the common dressing room. He did tape the Johnny Cash Show in the Ryman, and he was more than a handful to deal with petty needs. George Jones was a pain in the ass, as well as, a few others. Willie lived in Green Briar, northeast of Nashville for 20+ years and in the early days performed regularly in the early days but was not invited. Minnie Pearl was NOT Banned..... The post took 2/3s of the time to finally get to the topic.....
Oprys a joke
Three minutes in before they get to the point. Blah blah blah.
He couldn’t sing, neither can Willie Nelson
Johnny was far beyond that ole opry, whats a sin is Joe biden pitch on a video with cash in it!
Jonny Cash was a Liberal all the way down to his soul ! Believe it or not, like it or not !
The Crap Ole Opry
