The final scheduled show for George Jones, scheduled for November 22 at Nashville's Bridgestone Arena, will go on as a tribute to the late singer.
Jones died on April 26 at the age of 81. He was in the middle of his final tour which was scheduled to run through November.
Jones' widow Nancy told Country Weekly "Everyone has been asking if we will still do the show. I have asked Garth, Kid Rock, Travis Tritt, The Oak Ridge Boys, Montgomery Gentry, Sam Moore, Charlie Daniels, Jamey Johnson and others and they all said, 'Yes, I am still going to do it.' So with all the artists still planning on coming, we are going to honor George one final time."
