HARDY and his wife, Caleigh, are making plans to expand their family. However, not quite in the way you might be thinking. In a recent interview, HARDY admitted that he and his wife are thinking about getting a cat and a dog. As far as the breed of dog, they’re not going small, “I think we’re getting a Tibetan Mastiff,” declared Hardy. Honesty though, could you imagine taking the dog on tour? It would need its own bus!

AXS TV will celebrate Memorial Day with a huge country music marathon. The all-day event will kick off early Monday, May 27. Featured performers include Willie Nelson, Tim McGraw, Trisha Yearwood and Dierks Bentley. There is going to be a Toby Keith tribute, as well as a deep dive on the life of Jonny Cash.
