George Strait has announced his plans for his final two-year tour, but he will continue to record and is not ruling out special performances after "The Cowboy Rides Away" tour ends in 2014.  He made the announcement yesterday during a press conference at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville.  Strait, who celebrated his 60th birthday in May, plans to begin work on a new album in Nashville in October.  Martina McBride will be the special guest during the tour that begins January 18th in Lubbock, Texas. I love George.  I have seen him twice in concert.  A true legend.  If you get a chance to see this final tour...you will like it. - Becky
