Yes, this is Music City USA, and you can hear Country music on virtually every street corner.

But, the only Country music that mattered on this night was the George Jones concert at the Williamson County Fair in Franklin Tennessee.

George Jones lives right here in Williamson County, and he’s always been known to go the extra mile for his fans — especially the locals.

Thanks for a great show, George!

Here are some of the photos we took on Friday August 5, 2005…
