Tell me a little bit about the city...size, shape, etc. I am interested.
I am leaving at 10 PM this evening to go to Belmont University for a show choir competition. I will return Sunday.

Posted: 2/24/05 at 6:46pmI lived in Nashville for a few years. Theater ain't so great in this town. The best area is the West End around Vanderbilt University. If you get a chance, try and eat at Monell's Restaurant. One of the best in the city.

Nice city... Lots of good restaurants/entertainment venues downtown. Also fun clubs, etc.
Make sure to check out Fox17 News, weekday mornings. Look for my girl, Kelly! She's my bestfriend...

I wish I could do stuff on my own...but it is a bunch of high school students, so we have an itinerary. I won't get to check out your friend because the first time I will be at the hotel in the morning is on Saturday.
Big city?

Posted: 2/24/05 at 7:02pmDecent size, but not that big. It is the capital of TN.

What a gorgeous city!
I had such a wonderful time and would love to go back, minus the chaperones. We recorded a CD at Studio B, which sounds wonderful. I had the tour guide take me by the Tennessee Performing Arts Center, which I was interested in seeing because I follow all of the national tours.
On the way, I passed right through Columbus, Cincinnati, and Louisville. I told everyone that I would travel there each time when I go on tour.
Cincinnati looks great...I can't wait to go down there and see LSOH in April.

Posted: 2/28/05 at 3:46pmGlad you liked it. TPAC has three theaters inside. The middle sized theater is nice. The biggest one gets all the Broadway touring shows. Several years ago, I saw a Les Miz tour there. (The stage was too small and they had to cut the set down). The smallest theater is a blackbox which was intended to be a tv studio. It never really materialized as a tv studio and unfortunately the acoustics are horrible.
