On Wednesday 29 September 2021, Gene Watson congratulated fellow country music artist, Mandy Barnett, on her invitation to become a member of The Grand Ole Opry in Nashville.
‘Congratulations to Grand Ole Opry’s newest member, Mandy Barnett!
Connie Smith invited her to join, and I’m sure they had a great time with that big moment.
I won’t ever forget when Vince Gill invited me to be a member, on Friday 17 January 2020.
I could hardly sing a note after that’
