Opry and United States Postal Service Partner for a Uniquely Nashville Tax Day

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (April 10, 2008) – The Grand Ole Opry and the United States Postal Service are working to give “Tax Day” a uniquely Nashville twist and to make the day easier and more fun for country music fans. As guests file into the April 15 Tuesday Night Opry, the Postal Service will position a mail truck at the entrance of the Opry House for convenient tax return drop-offs. H&R Block will also be positioned in the Opry Plaza to offer last minute advice to procrastinating filers.

Among those scheduled to help wash any tax blues away on the Opry stage that night are Martina McBride, Lee Greenwood, Steve Wariner, Eric Church (singing his apropos new single “His Kind of Money [My Kind of Love]”), Bill Anderson (singing, of course, “Po’ Folks”), and more.

The Opry is also helping take the edge off Tax Day by offering a special discount for that night’s show. Guests can receive $5 off up to eight tickets when they mention the code TAXBRK.

The Grand Ole Opry® is presented by Cracker Barrel Old Country Store®. Opry performances are held every weekend of the year and on Tuesdays beginning March 4. To plan an Opry visit, call (800) SEE-OPRY or log on to opry.com.
