Country icon Ray Price, who made headlines earlier this year over a public tiff with Blake Shelton due to comments the latter made about country music's elder statesmen and classic artists, referring to them as "old farts," has been readmitted to the hospital. The singer has been in and out of facilities over the past several weeks.
Country Music Hall of Famer Ray Price is out of the hospital.
Just in case you didn't hear me talking with Sharon and Jack on air this afternoon. I am excited to announce that Ray Price will be the next artist of Legends of Country Music to be at Schroeder Dance Hall Saturday, August 24. Tickets are $30 advance / $
If Blake Shelton really wants to make up for his recent comments about classic country fans being "old farts," it looks like he's going to have the chance. The reigning CMA Entertainer of the Year has been offered a gig opening for country legend Ray Price, who publicly took him to task after his comments went viral.
Legendary country star Ray Price is not happy with reigning CMA Entertainer of the Year Blake Shelton, and he's not afraid to say so in public. In a Facebook post today, the 87-year-old entertainer took issue with comments Shelton made to GAC, in which he derided old country fans for not understanding the music of the new generation.
