Outback Concerts in association with Country Music Hall of Fame member George Jones announced the final Nashville show as part of The Grand Tour to be held at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, TN on Friday, Nov. 22, 2013.
 
Special guest Tanya Tucker will be on hand for the Nashville concert amongst other friends of The Possum, yet to be announced.
 
"The Grand Tour will have surprises throughout the shows - you never know who may show up!  The Possum has lots of friends so it is going to be the most exciting thing to see who shows up during the final show. You should come too - and we can be surprised together!" said Jones.
 
George Jones, often referred to as the "the greatest living country singer" will mark the end of an era with 2013's farewell tour titled "The Grand Tour". The tour is expected to make approximately 60 stops next year. "I Don't Need Your Rockin' Chair", "Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes", "White Lightning" and "He Stopped Loving Her Today" will surely be part of each night's set list, along with plenty of guests and surprises.
 
Tickets for the Nashville show go on-sale Friday, Nov.16 at 10am at all Ticketmaster locations.
 
Fans of 'The Possum' can see him at his upcoming concerts listed below or at www.georgejones.com.
