She played at the Osage casino in north tulsa last night, Dang she can still sing and looks to be in pretty good shape for 75 yrs. old, Did anyone else go?
I saw her two or three years ago at the Cain's. She was pretty good, but she forgot some lyrics and her bandleader had to help her out some. She was pretty good about it though and even cracked a joke about her mistakes.
Saw her at Branson several years ago and her son was telling her all the lyrics. Pretty still and could sing. Came out on stage and took her shoes off and sang barefoot all eveing -everyone loved it.
I was there. She did great. Took my mom, wife, mother in law and a couple of friends. Got lucky and had our seats reserved with our name on them. Walked in when her daught got on stage and didn't have to mess with the long lines.
My mom and I sang every line with her. When I was growing up we would travel to my mom's family in NM 2 or 3 times a year. She and I would sing to a few 8 tracks that we had and Loretta Lynn was played the most. Funny, that 8 track got stuck in the tape deck and for about a year and a half, if you wanted to listen to music, it had to be Loretta. I think I've sung 'I'm a blue Kentucky Girl' more than any other hererosexual man.
