An Evening with Dolly Parton

I recently got the chance to go see the biggest country diva in the world - Dolly Parton when she stopped through Atlanta on her tour to help promote her new album Backwoods Barbie.  Her concert "An Evening with Dolly Parton" is worth every penny you will spend on the ticket.  She sang her biggest hits like "Here You Come Again", "9 to 5", "Jolene" "Coat of Many Colors" "Two Doors Down" and of course "I Will Always Love You" just to name a few, not to mention she let us have a great sampling from her new album Backwoods Barbie.  Not only did she sing she entertained, which can't be said for some preformers that are half her age.  I loved how she not only got up there to preform the numbers but then shared story's about her songs, joked about plastic surgery, her recent back troubles and about how she grew up.  Dolly is a true performer and we are not likely to see someone with true country roots like her again in our lifetime.  She embodies what every musician, artist and actor should strive to be... real!  Make sure to try and catch one of her upcoming dates which I have listed below and ya'll have fun now ya' hear.
