Performers such as Louvin and others say they joined the Opry cast decades ago because there was an understanding you gave up some money at the peak of your career in exchange for security and a place to perform when the hits stopped coming. But today some of those longtime cast members believe the Grand Ole Opry reneged on that unwritten agreement and that they have been forced out by new management. (AP Photo/Mark Humphrey)
