He adds that while he still wans to be “unique” and “different” when he tours, “I don’t know if I did another tour like this,” noting, “I think that the Double Down Tour was as far as I want to go from a challenge point.”

“I posted about struggling with paying for tuition. two hours later, I get this in my email,” Ayesha explained. “I have no words and i can’t stop crying.”

This day in 1982, “Ernest Tubb makes his final appearance on the Grand Ole Opry.

Ernest Tubb (February 9, 1914 – September 6, 1984), nicknamed the Texas Troubadour, was an American singer and songwriter and one of the pioneers of country music. His biggest career hit song, “Walking the Floor Over You” (1941), marked the rise of the honky tonk style of music. In 1948 he was the first singer to record a hit version of Billy Hayes and Jay W. Johnson’s “Blue Christmas”, a song more commonly associated with Elvis Presley and his late-1950s version. Another well-known Tubb hit was “Waltz Across Texas” (1965) (written by his nephew Quanah Talmadge Tubb, known professionally as Billy Talmadge), which became one of his most requested songs and is often used in dance halls throughout Texas during waltz lessons. Tubb recorded duets with the then up-and-coming Loretta Lynn in the early 1960s, including their hit “Sweet Thang”.  Tubb is a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame.
