Re: [skeeter] Hall Of Fame

Sorry, June Carter was one of the most aggrivating people I've ever had to suffer through on record or film.  The only things she ever done that were slightly tolerable, were her duets with Johnny Cash.  But on another note, I'd like to mention that my mother saw  June Carter and Carl Smith live in the early 50's at the Carolina Theater in Spartanburg, S.C.  I think the tickets were about  two dollars.  The headliner was a young guy named Elvis Presley...... and oh yeah there were a couple of girls there who called themselves the Davis Sisters.

Times have really changed, eh???

I'm a little late getting into this subject but I've pretty much given up on the CMA giving Skeeter this richly deserved honor. After all look how long not...

It's hard to fault your logic although I've never considered June Carter a likely candidate for the Hall, certainly not an early one. I don't see many...

June has had a rather phenomenal "career" the last years of her life and posthumously with three solo Grammys and the movie and she has always been one of the...

I thought Skeeter and Dottie should have been in there years ago, but it seems that the HOF leans towards the men. Shoot, I was so surprised to see Vince beat...

I'm not surprised Vince beat Reba into the HOF; even though I'm not a Reba fan I felt for a number of years, Nashville is kind of jealous of Reba's post-town...

I really don't want to sound negative, but I've lived in Nashville for the better part of 20 years and it's my opinion that the hall of fame is just a joke...

June Carter... I do think her duets with Johnny Cash are her best recordings, but I enjoy some of her work from the 1950s, especially as a cornball comedienne....

Wrote to the CMHOF and they wrote back that they have nothing to with electing new members. So found this at the CMA website: The election of Country Music...

Larry, DESPITE WHAT THE HALL OF FAME SAYS, THEY DO IN A WAY HAVE TO DO WITH WHO GETS INTO THE HALL OF FAME. ( sorry about the caps ). I too have a copy of the...

Hi Gary, I do agree with you, the fans have no say in who gets in the CMHOF. There has been a petition floating around for over a year to get the late Dottie...

I actually feel a petition wouldn't do any good and it could also backfire if there weren't that many signatures on it. It certainly has not helped Dottie's...
