In 1998, The Oak Ridge Boys had a variety show, "The Oak Ridge Boys Live From Las Vegas". On April 21, 1998, Mel Tillis was one of the guests on the show, and Mel and the Oaks performed Mel's "I Ain't Never". This was one of the rare instances that Mel was not able to use The Statesiders, so the Oak's band backed them. Admirably, I might add.
