George Strait

he grew up in the nearby town of Pearsall, Texas and he was born in Poteet, Texas.

George Strait has won 3 CMA Entertainer of the Year Awards. He won in 1989, 1990, and 2013.

George Strait used to play a Guild guitar, and he can be seen playing it still. However, in some recent videos and concert appearances, he has played a Taylor guitar.

dumb question maybe?

Yes, he has a few country-Christian songs such as, "I saw God" and Love forever amen".

no he is a country man

Well, yes George spent a lot of time on his grandfather's ranch and loves team roping, but in an interview I read that he loves to go on motorcycle adventures in Mexico (because he can be anonymous) with his buddies. I don't know what brand or type of motorcycle he rides.

It is difficult to say exactly how many albums has the country icon George Jones sold, but it's possible to give a ballpark estimate. Accounting the after-death spike in record sales, the number would be around 10 million in total.

I would have to say NO WAY in hell! George Strait is a well grounded man whom is solid as a rock! He has been so successful due to the fact that he is a good man. I do not think that he would do that.

in one minute

more than you can count

Easy... a Artsit has to put on at least 100 shows a year AND sing at least once in the Grand Ole Opry and George never has.

George Strait did appear on the Opry early in his career. When asked about becoming a member of the Opry, George said that he had never been asked. I really don't know if George would want to be in TN if it meant being away from his beloved Texas and family very long. I'm not sure about rules and regs on Opry member's quantity of performances. When was the last time member, Garth Brooks performed there?

Theres too many in all I think now with twang theres somewhere around 57 number one hits.

The ranch is near Encinal, TX, in fact about 10 miles or so from the town. Occasionally, George is seen in town but noone bothers him. I am orignally from Encinal and I'll find out exactly where the ranch is located. Don't bother him!

depending on crowed numbers, if he got 50,000 people to one concert, he would make in estimation of $5,000,000.. however out of this he has many costs to pay with it (Manager fees, venue hire, venue staff, band members, advertising ect..) he would definetly clear a couple of mil.

George has been married to the former Norma Voss (his high school sweetheart) since 1971.

George Jones was born on September 12, 1931.

This information is not given in his biography.

I cannot say exactly how accurate this information is, but I had heard that he began singing with The Ace in the Hole band when he was in college after answering an advertisement for a singer.
