Virginia’s Li’l Ole Opry will kick up its heels on Saturday night, and take guests back in time to the “good ol’ days” of country and rock and roll from the decades of the 1970s and ’80s.
The oldies show will feature the house band Shades of Country, and all of the Opry singers, including special guests, performing some of the best songs of yesteryear. The show will be at Mathews High School’s Harry M. Ward Auditorium. Doors open at 7 p.m., and the show begins at 7:30.
