Pride and the Pridesmen: Legendary country gentleman Charley Pride is a big fan of Canada, and Canada is a big fan of his.
Pride took the stage at Western Financial Place on Thursday, May 22, to the delight of the 1,000 concert-goers, and revued five decades of hits, backed by The Pridesmen, his band of fellow Texans.
The Pridesmen played an introductory set of country standards, with each member taking a vocal lead, before Pride — ageless and entertaining at age 76 — came on.
