Country music icon George Jones has announced that he will play the final show of his career at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on Friday, November 22, 2013. Along with special guest Tanya Tucker, more of Jones’ friends are expected to join this most special occasion. Tickets go on sale this week on Friday, November 16, at 10 pm via Ticketmaster.

The press release has all other tour dates up til then:

“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, November 16th at 10am at all Ticketmaster locations.
