Dolly could technically do it--- she could fly in since her concerts are like just a few hours by plane away from the opry...but-- it would be tough. You are right.

I just keep thinking that dolly has a new album out--- and she is promoting it by going on Idol, being on the cover of Country Weekly, etc.

Dolly hasn't been at the opry in a long time, right? So it would be a good way for her to promote her new album and get back in the game. lol

But Barbara or reba would be great too.
