Carrie Underwood and Ronnie Milsap will be among those helping the Grand Ole Opry celebrate its 82nd birthday this weekend. The Opry's Birthday Bash will include two shows both tonight and tomorrow, while Milsap will play a special matinee show tomorrow.

Underwood is set to present her new single "So Small" during the televised portion of the show. Carrie says the Opry is one of the amazing things about being in country music, "It's just filled with tradition, and it's very inspiring just to be here."

Other performers for the weekend include Emerson Drive, Lorrie Morgan, Travis Tritt, Steve Wariner, and Jeanie Seely, while other activities set for the weekend include backstage tours, children's events, a picnic in the Plaza, and an Opry Pie Auction benefiting the Opry Trust Fund.
