Overview: Honoring American troops is a tradition in country music, especially during times of war. Country superstar George Strait recently helped honor the troops at Fort Campbell in Kentucky with a special free concert for members of the 101st Airborne and their families to say thank you for their service. Host Katie Cook will give you a front row seat to the special show -- also featuring Vince Gill, Richard Marx, Collin Raye, Dobie Gray and Lane Brody -- and the fun had by all who attended. On a sadder note, the music world lost an icon last week with the passing of the legendary Ray Charles. Many celebrities were on hand to pay homage to the star during his funeral services held in Los Angeles. We'll bring you coverage of the ceremony remembering Charles' life and career. Also on tap in this episode, we'll catch up with singing star Sara Evans and her brother who happens to be her band director on the road; take a special look inside Joe Nichols' tour bus; go behind the scenes at Trace Adk
