Saw Hank III open for Reverend Horton Heat about six years ago in Atlanta. Before then I had dismissed him out of hand because I assumed he was riding on the name. I was way wrong. Hank III is doing his granddaddy, daddy, and all us real country fans proud. Between him, Wayne Hancock, Dale Watson and several others, we can have hope that REAL country--not that pop-country bullshit in the radio--will live on.
Whether dead or not, give Hank Sr., the respect he deserves since most Country music players and listeners love his music, he died, no matter the fault, it’s called Honor in Music, !
@@Porty1119 I´m not American, so I don't get it right, but does Hayes belong in country music? Because I can't hear anything from the country in his shitty music. True, I could only listen to two of his songs, one worse than the other ...

he is a real songwriter and his grandad would be proud scott you just wish you could have half of the talent he has Ive been in country music for over 30 years and I believe ive earned the right to say At least hes not pop or rap and he sings true songs
Wow...I am just now knowing the history. I enjoy Bocephus. However, Hank III looks more like his GrandPappy and carries THAT Attitude. Need to acknowledge Hank III's band. They have stood behind him (HANK III) from the early days even though that may discriminate them from the NOT SO GRAND OLDE opry. You guys put on a GREAT show. Thank You so much from a yank exiled from the U.P. of Upper Michigan.
I met him twice both times he was a nice guy. He has his own music. With that said I liked him he invited me on his bus bought me a drink a red devil it was good. Ask me to go party with his band after they got done,but I could not go. One hell of a nice guy. Looks like Hank Sr. Hope him the best.
He’s the real deal. Outlaw country is the shit. True country was sung by true hard arses & true outlaws who could sing the blues & bend them guitar strings . Malcom Young Forever. Hank Williams 123 forever...

@@OLDBEAR123456 it appears it's outside, but I don't think RedRocks. Maybe fiddlers green.. usually if someone says RedRock they usually say it's either Redrock or in Morrison.

Shelton hank Williams iii I agree the opry needs to reinstate Hiram king "hank"Williams Sr. And it needs to be done right damn now,call Cindy Williams the new general manager of the opry and let's get hank all three of you back on the opry and let real country music win.
I guess Dan Rogers runs the Opry. Everyone should email him and demand Hank Williams entrance. I have no idea what their problem is or what any downside would be. In fact, it seems like corporate malfeasance that they are not taking advantage of their association with Hank Williams. I don’t think it’s absurd to say that Hank Williams is one of the main reasons for their existence. They should forget any ancient grievances and adjust their attitude and embrace Hank Williams!
Country music is the most absolutely American form of music out there. It's unfortunate that all of this pop country garbage is the only thing that's played anymore. It's also a shame that it's even called Country music when it's more like twangy pop or twangy rock. Hank 3 is real country music. Anyone who thinks otherwise doesn't know what they're talking about.
I like hank the 3rd in jr in sr hank the 3rd is really talented like his grand father in father id like to see him in kid rock come up with a song I thnk it would turn out great the mainstream media in music doesn't wanna hear the truth only what will make them a buck music now went awy from the roots in theres a lack of respct for those who paved the way in spoke about life in trying to live in struggle
Hank III called out Kid Rock in "Not Everybody Likes Us" and he was the bass player for Superjoint Ritual. Kid Rock couldn't handle the crowd he runs with. Because Kid Rock is a fraud.
@SuperFenderfan Try posting a comment on his youtube channel OfficialHankIII if all else fails, go see his live show. He comes into the crowd after every show and will shoot the shit with all his fans.
be ahead of the pack, stand tall, and drop the word FUCK but YOU ARE RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT Hank WIlliams, his memory, and his amazing, unduplicated musical legacy DOES NOT NEED the Grand Ole Opry and its membership. The Grand Ole Opry obviously needs Hank, though, to sell products. So be ahead of teh pack and knock what's really important Hank Williams is an unequaled country legend. .
Because his grandfather devoted his life to Nashville and the Grand Ole Opry...It's the only right thing to do...you apparently don't know the whole story or you wouldn't even have to ask.

i agree although there are many on that list. everlast is one guy on the same page as hank 3.

He manages to both be a tribute act and his own man in one motion.

Some of the best COUNTRY music these days is found on UA-cam! Guys (And Gals) like Hank here, that do their own thing!

He died trying...so re-instate him...he died b/c he was killed by a phony doc..
Hank senior needs to be in there. Hes a legend.
Until Hank Williams is back in it'll never be grand
Hank 3 likes country
Hank 3 likes bluegrass
Hank 3 likes metal
Hank 3 likes real music
I like Hank 3
You left off his main genre, punk.
They don't sound anything at all like their dad's and granddads music.
@@adelinetudyk1694 he sounds so much like his granddaddy, but jus like his daddy Jr said " I ain't my daddy and my music doesnt sound the same."
Hank III is his own grandfather. Hank Sr. came back to life to enjoy life once again.
Not only does 3 like all those great genres of music, he writes and plays them all extremely well
Thanks u tube for introducing me to the great Hank lll. Dont know how I managed to get to the age of 69 totally oblivious to such a talent. Go boy go
Good COUNTRY music! He does his own thing and that's the way it should be!
Still can't believe people like Darius Rucker are in the grand ole opry but not Hank Sr.
Better Darius Rucker than Hunter Hayes.
Porty1119 No. That is absolutely no better. Darius Rucker doesn't know who he is or what he wants. He's a poser and a pathetic knockoff of "country."
Pitiful..

🤘🤘🤘
Bout time country got some balls! 😉😉
country music isn't about how often u can say fuck hank the 3 your granddady would be disappointed
that's what you focus on ? Hank Sr. WOULD be proud that his Grandson isn't some kiss ass suck up..
all that swearing 🙄 come on man!! love your music i grew up listening to your grand dad/an dad.

What i don't understand if Hank III doesn't like the Opry why does he want his Grandfather reinstated?
Because his grandfather devoted his life to Nashville and the Grand Ole Opry...It's the only right thing to do...you apparently don't know the whole story or you wouldn't even have to ask.
Did you even listen to what he just said ? The G.O.O. is whoring Hank Sr. BUT will not re-instate him,. pretty simple
@SuperFenderfan now is only one of his songs metal?
Ol Luke the Drifter was a preacher
Mine Pearl said she thought she was seeing a ghost,they say talent skips a generation ,sorry Beaucephious
He also isn't doing appearances on radio shows sponsored by flour companies...change of times
The next month Opry gets flooded.
Who doesn’t get a little too fucked up every now and then!?!?!?!buy the ticket take the ride 🤘
he looks more like his grandpa than his daddy.
The Last true Country artist, beside David Allan Coe
Hank 111, tells it like it is....Too bad. GOP get with the 21st century.
His grandfather died from alcohol poisoning. He's just as much a rebel as 3.
and pills
AND WHAT AE YOIU?!?!? ;p
i think Hank 3 sounds very much like his Grandad the late Mr. Hank Williams,but i think the lyrics to this song are a little bit too raw.
Maybe , but also I can see real like a race memory ,acting out the frustration of his grandfathers past life
he keeps complaining about the opry but I keep seeing him playing it. maybe I don't know something
Darren Chapman and now I'm just confused all to hell. opry in Denver? hmm
+Darren Chapman I'm also confused the opry is in Tennessee
Mike Yate I think someone made a mistake? I remember something and being confused, it's definitely is in Tennessee. Nashville.
