Let's get Hank Williams Reinstated into The Grand Ole Opry.

Dear Editor,

I would like to draw attention to a petition that I feel is one that others may not be aware is available. I'm a Hank Williams fan, and I became aware that his grandson Hank Williams III started a petition to have his grandfather Reinstated into The Grand Ole Opry. I've provided the petition text below:

"This petition calls for the reinstatement of Opry legend, and country music star, Hank Williams. Fifty years have passed since the tragic and untimely death of country music's greatest performer, who made his debut at the Grand Ole Opry on June 11th, 1949. A few years later, in 1952, Hiram Hank Williams was asked to leave the Opry -- with the intention that he would sober up and make a return to the stage that he loved so much.

Before he could make that return, he passed on, in the back seat of a car on the way to an Ohio show. It's now 2008, and Hank Williams has yet to be reinstated to the Opry.

We, the undersigned, feel that it is past due for Hank Williams' reinstatement to the Grand Ole Opry."

Thank you for allowing me this opportunity to let my community, along with old and new Hank Williams fans to be involved in making history with Reinstating Hank Williams to The Grand Ole Opry.

"Hank Williams has had such a great Great Influence musician in all types of music and musician in his life also after his death,singer ,song writers that have were born after his death.


It was my mom and dad that made me aware of his music .i have read that many a musician has been influence by the great music that he gave us.now it time to honer this man who had issues to deal with .Those problem do not negate the great accomplishments hes has done for country music and other types."

Based on these comments and recent blogs found on MySpace, it's clearly evident that Hank Williams Sr. is respected by music lovers from virtually all genres of music.

"Hank deserves to be in the opry. Taylor Swift needs to be opted out." Aug 3rd

"It is a disgrace that this man who has molded country music into the mecca of all music entertainment hasn't been given the recognition he is due. Listening to this new stuff that is now "country". It amazes me that this man who defined country music, is absent from such a forum." Aug 2nd

Best Kept Secret In Music - Hank Williams Sr.

Did you know that Hank Williams Sr. is not a member of the Grand Ole Opry? A friend recently asked 7 people at random if they were aware of this and all 7 thought that he was already a member. Naturally, who wouldn't think he was? He's promoted relentlessly in and around the Opry, while unsuspecting fans are unaware that he was removed and never reinstated into the Opry he helped build.

Help by spreading the word, forward this story, e-mail it to friends, and most importantly by signing the Petition to Reinstate Hank Williams into the Grand Ole Opry. Sign it Today!
