A George Jones tribute concert, arranged before the death of the legendary country icon, will go down as planned. According to George's widow, Nancy, the November 22 date is not being moved and the original lineup remains in place.
"Everyone has been asking if we will still do the show," Jones' widow, Nancy, said in a statement.
"I have asked Garth [Brooks], Kid Rock, Travis Tritt, the Oak Ridge Boys, Montgomery Gentry, Sam Moore, Charlie Daniels, Jamey Johnson and others and they all said 'Yes, I am still going to do it.' So with all the artists still planning on coming, we are going to honor George one final time."
The concert goes down at Nashville's Bridgestone Arena. Tickets were previously sold out, but fans have been asked to periodically check back with Ticketmaster as more may become available.
