How-Dee!!!
I never thought that the Opry would be such a spiritual experience. From the opening chorus of "Will the Circle be Unbroken" I felt it to my core. Great tour, love the history.

Visiting the backstage...
Visiting the backstage with the guided tour provided such an incredible and enjoyable insight from production to performers that you wouldn't normally have without the guided tour.
