Jamey Johnson is officially a member of the Grand Ole Opry. As we told you, Jamie was invited to become a member back in March, and his induction took place this past weekend. “When I started writing songs at the age of 16, I knew that, hopefully, Grand Ole Opry membership would be in the cards for me," he tells The Tennessean. "I wanted to be on that stage so badly that I would leave notes on the windshields of Opry stars.”
