Toby Keith, 3 Doors Down, and more to perform for Trump's inauguration concert
Entertainment Weekly ^ | January 13, 2017 | Danielle Jackson

President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration has landed a few additional performers: Toby Keith, 3 Doors Down, Lee Greenwood, Jennifer Holliday, The Piano Guys, and the Frontmen of Country will all play a headlining concert on Jan. 19 at the Lincoln Memorial, Trump’s inaugural committee announced on Friday. Actor Jon Voight will also make an appearance.

“President-elect Trump has made it clear that this inaugural is of, by, and for the American people. The 58th Inaugural will celebrate American history and heritage, while setting the course to a brighter and bolder future for all Americans,” Tom Barrack, the chairman of the Presidential Inaugural Committee, said in a press release, according to CNN. “Above all, it will serve as tribute to one of our greatest attributes, the peaceful transition of partisan power.”

Called the “Make America Great Again! Welcome Celebration,” the show will also “feature historic remarks” from Trump himself, the event’s website said.

I heard that Paul Anka will be performing a version of his song “My Way” he wrote to honor Trump.

I just read that he says now he can’t make it because of a custody battle for his son.

“How Do You Like Me Now?” (living in your radio)

Great song for our wonderful President Trump!

“Of, by and for the American people”. How refreshing! What a concept!

He’s in his 70’s. How old is his son?

I love Three Doors Down. They were the the band that worked with the National Guard to make the series of video ads that used to play in movie theaters.

Give them a listen...decent, America-loving patriot band.

I’d expect Lee Greenwood could be taken as a given, and I’d be very disappointed if Keith passed for political reasons—it would be highly inconsistant with his public persona.

Excellent! Lee Greenwood certainly needs to be there. He loves America just as DJT does.

I wonder whatever happened to Lloyd Marcus, Tea Party singer and organizer. He is a Trump supporter.

A tip of the hat to Burt Bacharach - still going strong!

He wrote some great music to match Hal David’s lyrics - what a team!
