Eight years ago today, on April 6, 2013, George Jones performed what turned out to be his final concert, at the Knoxville Civic Coliseum in Knoxville, Tenn.
Jones final show was part of what was supposed to be his farewell tour, which was originally scheduled to end with the all-star
Playin’ Possum! The Final No Show concert on Nov. 22, 2013. But after playing his show in Knoxville, the singer, who seemed to be struggling with his breathing, gave an ominous prediction to his wife Nancy.
“I just did my last show,” Jones said on the bus afterwards. “And I gave ’em hell.”
Jones, then 81, wanted to do one final tour to honor his loyal fans, even though he had been battling health problems for years.
