So, we just finished up our Halloween in Blacksburg and then headed to Nashville for a stopover on our way to Columbia, MO. We got there in the afternoon and a couple of us decided to rent a car for our stay. We were staying a fair distance from the downtown. So, on Friday night we made it a night on the town. We walked up and down Broadway and made a pact to only have one drink in each bar, just to keep us moving and enjoying all the atmosphere. Well, just about every you bar you go in has live bands and performers and they are all amazing!! We had so much fun and although I really don’t enjoy country music, it was fantastic!!
On Saturday, we went downtown for a more touristy experience. We did a backstage tour of the Grand Ole Opry, which is a must miss!! Definitely go and see the building and walk around, but don’t waste the money on the backstage tour – so lame. The building was renovated within the last 30 or so years and all of the dressing rooms look like nice living rooms, totally modern, not at all historic. We also went and saw the Country Music Hall of Fame, which was surprisingly entertaining. I can’t really say what I liked about it, except that I don’t like country music and I was still able to appreciate what the museum offered!
All in all, a great couple of days and we look forward to doing a single show on this normally 5 show weekend in Missouri on Sunday night.
