This will be sad news for Dolly Parton’s fans, of whom I am one of many millions. She’s not retiring (I can’t imagine her ever doing that), but she announced that she’s decided not to tour anymore.

She says she might do the occasional festival or special appearance, but she wants to stay home and spend more time with her husband Carl now that they’re getting older. Fortunately, she will continue to write songs and record new music. I wonder if they might consider getting a second home in Las Vegas so Dolly could perform regularly and just let her fans come to her? I know they would!

Whatever she decides to do, I wish the very best to one of the kindest, warmest, most talented and most generous women in show business or any other industry. Here’s just one example. Her Imagination Library charity just gave away its 130 millionth book to children.

She said, “If I’m remembered 100 years from now, I hope it will be not for looks but for books.” I don’t think Dolly has to worry about being remembered 100 years from now, and for a lot of things.

    Since she shamelessly pushed the murder jab I don't give a rat's arse what she does. And there are 2 things she'll be remembered for because silicon last longer.

    The fossil energy sector is under attack by the biden administration biden would undo all energy products and freeze people this winter stand people on the highways and if that’s not enough starve the people in the future. The powerful countries are not using dolor or wind for energy it doesn’t perform to its energy needs China is building more coal plants , Europe are tearing down the wind mills and now are on their needs begging for fuel from Russia how is that working the biden administration is telling Americans the rest of the world to pound sand it is a disgrace to have an imbecile madman in charge of a powerful country the United States ‘ people have a chance in a few days to continue or stop the madness not only for our country the world is hopeful our citizens will stop the madness to use all its tools to slow this mentality challenged fool

    I have always loved Dolly. Saw her live for the first time in Charleston, SC (my home) She is just so amazing. I'm a country girl myself and grew up poor, so I can relate to Dolly. Just love her!!
    Thank you so much Mike for your great articles. They're so inspirational and also lots of laughs.

    She will be missed in that arena. I am sad to say that I have never had the joy of seeing her at a concert or show. I have enjoyed her music, been to Dolly Wood when it was ok to have "DIXIE" Stampede. Can you image southern and you can't say Dixie? Dolly they will never take the Dixie heart away from you. Not in 100 years. Oh I almost forgot that you also helped in the development of a covide-19 vaccine. Can't say that Dolly hasn't "boosted us with a good shot in the arm of her southern hospitality. Thank-you

    After her jumping on the liberal bandwagon, supporting gay marriage, and cowering to the woke culture by ruining Dixie Stampede, I would not go see her if they paid me $10,000.

    What a nice tribute, Huck. For a 76-year old singer who is so talented, selfless and wonderful, she can do anything she wants to do that keeps her happy... and I love your Las Vegas suggestion!
