I Come From France...

[Drew_USAF]

...Actually, I'm coming from Little Rock AFB with my gal for the weekend. We've heard really good things about The Music City, and I was hoping that everyone could throw down some insder info on cool local spots. We're not really big into country music, but any good live music is cool with me. I heard Broadway is rockin' at night, but what about some daytime activities?...Good place to stay? Eat? Any help would be sweet... Thanks!

Yep - you've been told correctly - Broadway is rockin' at night! Definitely check it out - you'll find plenty of honky-tonk bars where you can drop-in for a fun time!

During the day...you have many options - here are a few suggestions:

Country Music Hall of Fame (http://nashville.com/attractions/countrymusichalloffame/index.html)
Music Valley Wax Museum - 615.862.5950
Tennessee State Museum (http://nashville.com/attractions/tennesseestatemuseum/index.html)
You can take a Gray Line Grand Legends Tour (http://www.res99.com/nexres/activities/detail.cgi?src=10014000&ses=d3bb138a35ecd1711219e07e734f4fa5&actType=tours&supplier_id=21669)
Belle Meade Plantation (http://nashville.com/attractions/bellemeade/index.html)

Also, while downtown Nashville is certainly a lot of fun at night -don't rule it out during the day - Tootsies Orchid Lounge has live entertainment that starts at 10am! It's a fun place to be - day or night!

Have a blast! :cool:
