If you love music.. then, by golly, get your butt to Nashville... Jen and I saw some great acts over the weekend. We saw an act at the Fiddle and Steel Guitar bar in Printer's Alley that had GREAT stamped all over them. Their lead guitar was incredibly good and their singer was terrific, too.
And CHEAP... once you get there... it's about 530 miles from Lansing, (no construction though...) the bars downtown, don't charge cover. They pass a tip jar around and you toss a couple bucks in. Beer isn't too expensive. One place, Robert's Western Wear (bar, stage and footwear.. no lie) has a Recession special ; PBR, fried bologna sandwich & a moon pie $5!
Saturday night we went to the Bluebird Cafe, and listened to four guys you have never heard of that were wonderful $10 cover.. over 2 hours of GREAT tunes.
The photo is the lobby of the Frist Center for Visual Arts, a magnificent Art Deco building that was, at one time, a Post office. The lobby alone is worth the price of admission (FREE!)
