VIDEO: Keith Urban ... Come on Down, You're the Next Member of the Grand Ole Opry!





Country's favorite Aussie, Keith Urban, was given the official invitation to add his name to country's most prestigous and revered royal family by becoming a member of the Grand Ole Opry during last night's All For The Hall concert at Nashville's Bridgestone Arena. During the middle of the show, Opry members Diamond Rio, The Oak Ridge Boys, Rascal Flatts and the show's co-host Vince Gill surprised Urban with a black duffel bag containing the coveted Opry microphone stand.

"How beautiful to have this happen tonight," said Urban. "This means the world to me." Keith Urban's induction will be held on April 21 at 8pm CT as part of the live premiere of the new GAC series Noteworthy At The Opry. He will make country music history by being the first Opry member born and raised outside of North America.
