The most awarded country group of the past decade, Rascal Flatts, was invited to join the Grand Ole Opry this evening by Opry member Vince Gill. The vocal group-- Gary LeVox, Jay DeMarcus and Joe Don Rooney-- will be formally inducted into the Opry family during the Opry’s 86th birthday weekend, Sat., Oct. 8. The show will air live at 8 p.m. Central on GAC: Great American Country. After the group concluded a performance of the hit “Bless The Broken Road,” Gill surprised them on stage, sharing that the three members of the group owed him $500 from a golf game bet last week. “You would think that after hit record after hit record and millions of records sold, they’d come up with the five hundred bucks, but nooooooo!” Gill laughed. Taking a more serious tone, Gill continued, “I am here gratefully and gladly to invite you guys to be the next members of the Grand Ole Opry.” http://0rz.tw/rkysn Following a lengthy audience ovation, LeVox said, “You know, we’ve gotten to do a lot of amazing things in our career like going to Iraq and visiting our soldiers, selling out arenas, and doing a lot of magnificent things that … you can’t even dream that big. But all three of us grew up listening to the Opry: Jay with his grandfather, me with my grandmother, and Joe Don with his entire family. You can’t even put into words what this means to us. When we first signed our record deal in 1999, our main goal was to play the Grand Ole Opry and someday be members of the Grand Ole Opry. Thank you so much for being here.” http://youtu.be/L4MjY_X9wiU?hd=1 “My hero is Vince Gill, and for him to come out here… man, what a surprise! ” Rooney said. DeMarcus then invited the Opry member to join the group for a spontaneous collaboration. Within seconds, the group and Gill had launched into Gill’s 1994 hit “Whenever You Come Around.” http://youtu.be/rHGFINyJYsg?hd=1 (两个高音歌王的合唱 真好听!) Following the show, Opry Vice President and General Manager Pete Fisher said, “Each and every time Rascal Flatts visits us at the Opry, the band generates an absolutely electric response from the audience. While racking up some of the biggest genre-defining hits of the past decade, Gary, Jay, and Joe Don have also demonstrated the high regard they personally hold for the Opry and its members. We’re excited to officially add the group to our member roster next weekend as we celebrate the Opry’s 86th birthday.” Rascal Flatts debuted their first album on Big Machine Records, NOTHING LIKE THIS, last November at #1 on the country album sales chart and became one of only four country acts to debut six consecutive studio albums at #1. Since their musical debut in 2000, the band has sold over 20 million albums and 25 million digital downloads and delivered 13 singles to the top of the chart. Rascal Flatts is the most awarded country group of the past decade with over 40 trophies from the American Country Awards, Academy of Country Music, American Music Awards, Country Music Association, People’s Choice Awards and more. Since their touring career began, they have sold over six million concert tickets. 新闻网址：http://www.opry.com/news/2011/09-27.html 真是替Rascal Flatts高兴!!! 出道11年终於进入成为会员了!!! 尽管国外许多hater说他们打扮不像乡村歌手 但他们依旧靠实力逐步获得乡村乐界的认同!!! 另外他们也宣布新专辑将於2012/04/03发行 根据以往他们一样是4月发行的"Me And My Gang"与"Unstoppable"专辑来看 新专辑首单最快明年1月出最迟1月底就会送电台 看来是已经固定1年半发一张专辑了~~~ 那时目前单曲"Easy"也差不多打完了 不晓得Natasha有没有机会拿下个人第1支乡村#1单曲呢~ MV已出炉：http://youtu.be/cDSCjmxO4T4 最新!!! 2011/10/08在Opry's 86th Birthday Bash的入名仪式： http://youtu.be/9Ft7HW8UmEE?hd=1 -- ◢╱◣ ◢╱ ◢╱ ◢╱ ◢█◣╱ ◢█◣ ◢╱◣◢╱◢█◢ ◢╱◣◢╱◣ ◢╱◣█▏ ◢█ ◢╱◣◢╱ █╱█ ◢█◣ ◢█◣ █◢◢◢╱◢█◣◢█◣ ◢█◣╱█ ◢██ ◢█◣╱██ ███ ▍▍█ █▃█ █◤ █ █╱ █ █ █╱█╱█ █╱█ █╱█ ██ █◢█◢▍▍█◢◥▃▃◢█◢ █◢◥█◤◥██◤█◢█◢█◢◥██◤◥█◤◤█◤ 美国偶像全新第十季正式开播 详情请洽AmericanIdol板 kxhaψ --
