HAVE I TOLD YOU YOU'RE THE GREATEST? (Items on Reba McEntire, Collin Raye, John Mellencamp, Steve Earle, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Kris Kristofferson)

Reba McEntire and Collin Raye will be among the country contingent performing at at Muhammad Ali's Celebrity Fight Night XIV in Phoenix on April 5. John Mellencamp is also onboard for the event that raises funds for the Ali Parkinson Center at Barrow Neurological Institute.
Meanwhile, Reba (who celebrates her birthday next Friday) has just added a new line of footwear the her line at Dillard's and the locals in Dallas came out Friday (3/21) when the lady herself showed up. Up next in the Reba collection: luggage.
Meanwhile, if you saw Reba and Kelly Clarkson along the way on their sold-out tour, you could be a winner!

Un-Vaulted: For its two-decades anniversary, Steve Earle's "Copperhead Road" is getting the "Deluxe Edition" treatment with a second disc that includes 11 never-released-before live cuts...An old Lynyrd Skynyrd tune has been "unearthed" and could be tacked onto the group's next album, due next year.

Kristofferson: A damned fine piece on Kris on The Times UK website.
