Dang this one hits hard. MG used to be one of my favorite bands. Such a shame. Prayers to his family and friends.

Just saw this on facebook and was coming to post.

Damn. Was just listening to some Montgomery Gentry today.

Montgomery Gentry was to perform a concert there tonight, and it has been cancelled, which may help confirm the reports.

So sorry to hear this. Thanks for entertaining me TG! Prayers to his family and friends.

 

 

Always will have a spot for him and Eddie.

His father just died a few weeks ago. Very hard times for family.
