I have my Opry debut under my belt now. It was not only a dream of mine, but a family dream as well. There were so many feelings and emotions going on last night, but over all a real peace of mind. It is nice to play your music somewhere that you feel like you belong. I say that with great respect and a humble attitude. It is no doubt in my mind why the Opry has been called the “Mother Church of Country Music.” If you don’t feel the reverence in that hallowed building, you might want to check yourself. Thanks to Pete Fisher and the Grand Ole Opry for making not only mine, but a family dream come to life. I thought of my Dad as I was singing, and all the times I had seen him perform. I thought about my Grandpa Miller and how proud he would have been. I also thought about his Dad before, Pa Miller, who played fiddle at barn dances in Southern Illinois. I hope that was the first of many performances on that stage. I not only thank the Opry, but the crowds who drive in from all over the country, and from all over the world to hear “real country music.” As always, I thank you all for your support, and I type this blog on this Sunday morning after my Opry debut with a happy heart.
Thank you,
Lance
