Red used to perform at Mt. Vernon, Ky, at Renfro Valley Barn Dance, a music entertainment center, it is smiliar to the Grand Olde Opery, and Louisana Hay Ride, at one time when Red Foley played at Renfro, it was more famous than Grand Olde and Louisana, a lot of bus tours come down from Canada.

My grandfather and Red Foley were first cousin, I remember when I was a litte boy back in 1965, Red came over to my grandfather's house and played several songs for everyone.
