Musicians donating to country museum

Kenny Chesney, Vince Gill, Gretchen Wilson and Big & Rich are among the many musicians who are donating proceeds from one of their concerts to the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville, Tenn.

The Hall of Fame opened the $37 million museum in 2001. It traces the development of country music with video clips and recorded music, exhibits, live performances and public programs.

“I revere this place more than any other,” said Gill. “It’s a mecca of so much, of all our histories.”
