Throwback Thursday- Remembering A Day In The Country
Lets go back to A Day In The Country! Every day I look at my Facebook memories, and these past few days I’ve been reminded of Day In The Country….
This was the last Day In The Country back in 2015. Scotty McCreery, Parmalee and Michael Ray were all on that show.
Lets go back to A Day In The Country! Every day I look at my Facebook memories, and these past few days I've been reminded of Day In The Country. For over twenty years, it was always held on the first Sunday in May. And for most of those twenty years, it was held downtown Augusta at the Savannah Riverfront Marina.
Most of y'all have very fond memories of that show. Some of the biggest stars in country music played on that first Sunday in May down on the Savannah River. Like who? Heres a list of a few of the stars who graced the stage at Day In The Country.
- Luke Bryan
- Blake Shelton
- Eric Church
- Jason Aldean
- Justin Moore
- Dustin Lynch
- Scotty McCreery
- Florida Georgia Line
Of course there were so many more as well. Whether you watched the show from in front of the stage, or on the river on a boat, odds are you had a blast. It started in 1986 so a lot of your favorite artists from the past played the show as well. Artists like:
- Vince Gill
- Aaron Tippin
- Joe Diffie
- John Michael Montgomery
- Tracy Lawrence
- Neal McCoy
- Sammy Kershaw
- Jo Dee Messina
- Merle Haggard
- Gary Allan
Its most definitely a show that I miss, and I know a lot of y'all out there miss it too. However, we all have our memories.
