   Will Hank be reinstated as a member of the Opry?

   • But the reason Hank won't be reinstated as a member is actually pretty simple: Opry membership is only for living artists. When the Grand Ole Opry was founded, it featured a rotating "cast" of performers, so the term Opry "membership" refers to "members of the cast" of the Opry. And you can't be a member of the cast if you're not able to perform.
