ENTERPRISE, Alabama (March 26, 2009)--RONNIE GILLEY ENTERTAINMENT presented the first-ever Jones Jam this past weekend in Dothan, Alabama, as part of a groundbreaking ceremony to officially introduce the Country Crossing Bingo Pavillion, an entertainment mecca that will house the Lorrie Morgan Café, Darryl Worley's Worley Bird Café and the John Anderson Buffet.

An outdoor concert event, Jones Jam celebrated and supported the premise and excitement surrounding the master-planned resort/entertainment facility currently under construction.

Jones Jam was held at the National Peanut Festival Fairgrounds on Saturday, March 21, 2009. More than 11,000 music fans came out to the free concert which featured performances by George Jones, Clint Black, Lee Greenwood, Aaron Tippin, Randy Houser and Shane Owen.
 
 
 As part of Country Crossing, Ronnie Gilley Properties has already begun the construction of the George Jones themed Possum Holler Bed and Breakfast (featuring spacious guest rooms and luxurious suites, an expansive great room, sitting-porches and indoor/outdoor fireplaces) scheduled to open in late summer.   
 
 
 

Music enthusiasts from Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi, North Carolina and beyond attended Jones Jam. More than 11,000 fans filled the fairgrounds around the amphitheater to catch some of their favorite country stars and support Country Crossing. Aaron Tippin treated the crowd to music off his latest CD offering IN OVERDRIVE. During a performance of "Working Man's Ph.D.," Aaron assembled a bicycle that he presented to three Marines representing the local Toys for Tots campaign.
Clint Black, also part of the Country Crossing family, provided crowd-pleasing entertainment at the Jones Jam. 
 
Lee Greenwod, a staple in country music's history, showed off his stellar musical talents by serenading fans with a saxophone solo.
