George Jones and Bobby Bare performing free Monday show
CATLETTSBURG, Ky. — A Labor Day just ain’t a Labor Day in Catlettsburg, Ky., until the ol’ Possum sings.
For being such an alleged "No Show," George Jones has gotten to be quite the regular in Catlettsburg, Ky.
Jones has been showing up and making Labor Day some kind of hard-core country wonderful in downtown Catlettsburg since 1999.
The legendary country singer will be in concert at 9 p.m. Monday, topping off a great night of classic country that also features fellow country legend and Pedro, Ohio, native Bobby Bare at 8 p.m., and Wilson Fairchild kicking off the show at 7 p.m.
Bare, who just released a new critically-acclaimed Shel Silverstein tribute CD which his son Bare Jr. produced, is making a rare appearance in the Tri-State.
The show is free and open to the public. For more info, go online at www.wdgg.fm.
Read an interview with Bare and more about the show in Monday’s Life section of The Herald-Dispatch.
