OK folks....what to do in....

[psuro]

Nashville? I just booked a trip for July 4 weekend. Yes, I know its going to be hot as blazes. In on the 4th and leave on the 7th.

I don't care for country music, so no chance of seeing any "up and coming country music act". The only thing that would be "up and coming" would be lunch if I was forced to listen to this music.

One of the travelling party just went through a long, bitter, contested divorce from his wife.

So, let's hear some non country music ideas.

Theme music for the trip!

A cursory google search of strip clubs in Nashville returns a fully nude joint called Deja Vu Showgirls with a 3.5 star rating on 163 reviews.

If you don't like country, do you like western?

I always enjoyed the dueling piano bar on the main street upstairs.

There are some talented people in Nashville. This isn't country music either (typically).
For a few dollars you can request almost anything.

Most of the honkey tonks play classic rock and covers as well (sometimes even more than) country. If you're not going 'up and down Broadway' I'd recommend going someplace other than Nashville

If you don't like country,

I believe what is called country today we called Southern Rock in the 70’s.

It's Americana music now...and it's good!

 

[PSUSignore]

I don't like country music either, you can find stuff even in the touristy honky-tonks that will be tolerable. Find a decent band, grab a seat, tilt back a few and watch the 10 million bachelorette parties make fools of themselves.

 

[Kmase21]

I'm going in March on a bachelor party. I found some good info here:

Looking forward to it.

 

[BOSCO2]

Not sure why you're going.

Hmmmm. I consider The Allman Brothers the epitome of Southern Rock, and have never considered them anywhere near country music, or C&W. I could listen to Allman Bros music all day, but would need to join Ro in the mens room (well.... you know what I mean) if I had to listen to country, or country/western, or whatever that noise is!

 

[Nitt1300]

There are a ton of music shops in Nashville, you can buy me a '58 Les Paul if you want to, if you really need something to do.

 

[psuro]

Not sure why you're going.

I want to see where it all started for Franklin.

 

[anon_xdc8rmuek44eq]

Drink, hit the bars, listen to live music,...what else is there to do? I’m not a huge country/western music fan but that’s like ground zero in the US for that kind of music - worth digging into IMO even if not a huge fan. Sort of like checking out jazz in New Orleans.

 

[Nitt1300]

seriously, there is a lot more music in Nashville than just country

[Nitt1300]

there's an old joke among guitar players about not being too cocky if you decide to try it in Nashville because chances are the cabdriver who picks you up at the airport is a better player than you are- like everything that's funny, it's rooted in truth

Okay - so blues too.

 

[lionroar88]

Check out The Parthenon - Full scale replica of the one in Athens - it is rather interesting
Also, whether you like C&W or not, a visit to Nashville is not complete without a visit to The Grand Ole Opry or Ryman Auditorium, or The Country Music Hall of Fame.

The Bluebird Café is really neat, as is Bourbon Street Blues and Boogie Bar

Very good. Sounds like a cover of the Dixie Chicks cover of Landslide. I liked it but I prefer Natalie Maines’s vocals. Maggie sounds great and I’m gonna check her out.

I like some classic C&W and really like bluegrass.

Several months ago, I stumbled onto Foxes and Fossils cover of "Suite Judy Blue Eyes" I was immediately hooked and have listened and watched a lot of that group's work on YouTube.

Unfortunately the girls have grown up, off to college (probably out of college) and the group is no more.

Anthony’s has a back room. Got tossed from Christie’s many years ago.

They like both kinds there..

I'm think of going to the football hall of fame, but I don't like football. Any suggestions of what I can do.

As a wise country singer once said ..I'm gonna get me a bottle of tequila and find me one of them Keno girls that can suck the chrome off a trailer hitch and just kinda kick back.
