I really liked the way they handled Las Vegas and the other tragedies that should have made it unacceptable to tell jokes and sing silly songs. I liked all the jokes and silly songs that they told us they "couldn't" do. Did those air on the radio?
 
The tribute to Troy of Montgomery Gentry is when I started crying.

God bless you and his family and Eddie always!!!

P.S. I wonder where Eddie plans on going from here. Will he sing alone, retire, or find another person to be a duo with?
 
We're still talking about the TV show, I assume. I fast-forwarded through nearly all the musical performances. Little Big Town doing "Wichita Lineman" and Alan Jackson were the exceptions. But I did see Eddie Montgomery and I assume that was when they remembered Troy. I didn't stop on that.

What I want to know is how to see who was listed when they showed who died. I saw very few names and couldn't even see faces. We don't all have big screens.
