| Over the years the Grand Ole Opry has been a place where dreams
were either made or dashed and July 19, 2003 was no different. We knew
it was true the moment Jeanne Seely introduced Dan Seals and he took
the stage to perform his magic. After singing "I'd Really Love To
See You Tonight" Dan paused to announce that he had brought a guest with
him - his brother Jimmy. The audience went wild as together the two
performed "Summer Breeze". The crowd response went beyond all
expectations!! Dan then returned to the spotlight to perform
"Bop".
After leaving the stage they two were quickly interviewd by CMT as evidenced by the captured screen shot.
The late Opry saw Jimmy C Newman introduce Dan who immediately launched into "Everything That Glitters Is Not Gold". Once again when Dan introduced his brother Jimmy. Again when the duo started the opening chords of "Diamond Girl" the audience went wild. Although the second set on the Opry was shorter, the audience was just as supportive. Below is another captured screenshot.
