Catch Nashvillest LIVE On The Morning Browser… Bright & Early
No, really. Bright and early isn’t the name of a post (this time, at least). It’s the actual time we’ll be appearing on Christian Grantham’s (of WKRN and NashvilleIsTalking) Morning Browser show tomorrow morning. If you’re really a glutton for pain and suffering (and would like to see your Nashvillest editors in their PJs), tune in for the live stream of Morning Browser here. We can’t guarantee that our interview will be either interesting or coherent, but we’re going to go ahead with it anyway. We’ll be chatting with Christian about Twestival Nashville, our new partnership with Chattarati and Knoxify, and other Nashvillest-y things. See you then!

Happy Hour: Keep It Classy, Nashville!
- Toby Keith didn’t exactly get the star treatment in Kentucky Saturday night when a fan flipped him off and then tossed a beer at him. Never the kind to be trifled with, Toby did what any self-respecting Okie-turned-Nashvillian would do and hopped off the stage, dropped a few f-bombs, challenged the fan to fight, and then had the guy carted out of the concert. But since Toby is a gentleman, Toby also apologized. Good thing someone videotaped it. [TMZ]
- We keep hearing different numbers, but the latest figure for what Tennessee would receive from the current stimulus package is $4.3 billion. [WTVF]
- Hey, so we’re getting closer to maybe being able to buy wine in our grocery stores! That’s exciting, right? [Tennessean]
- Most of us missed out on the rain today, but it looks like you’re gonna need your umbrellas (and lightning rods!) tomorrow. [Nashville WX]
- We’ve been ignoring this story for a few days, but the long and short of it is that Governor Bredesen may be up for a slot in President Obama’s cabinet as the Health & Human Services Secretary. Or maybe he won’t! Nobody knows. [Tennessean]

Bright & Early: Pot, Meet Kettle Edition
Good morning, Nashville. The new coach at University of Tennessee is already in hot water for using some illegal tactics to lure potential recruits to the team including a staged mock press conference and… a fog machine? Creative! The UT athletics department blew the whistle on Coach Kiffin and sent him a letter pointing out that he’d violated the NCAA’s policies. Unfortunately this wasn’t the first time he’s gone rogue either, since the SEC sent him another nasty letter last week for spreading a rumor about Florida’s coach using illegal recruiting tactics.
- State of the State. We expect to be hearing a lot about Governor Bredesen’s State of the State address over the next couple of days. He delivered the speech last night and if you’re feeling particularly masochistic today (or maybe it’s just what you’re into), here’s the full text.
- Racial suit against Metro. A former Metro groundskeeper is suing the city after being laid off following his complaints about racism in the workplace. Though they offered him his job back, he would have had to take a lower position and let’s face it–who really wants to work for Metro right now anyway?
- Bits & pieces. There is a giant job fair today at the fairgrounds for the 50,000 of you who are rocking the unemployment in Nashville … Nashville home sales are the lowest they’ve been in 15 years … The number of salmonella cases in Tennessee is now up to 13 … Pacman became a free agent yesterday after Dallas decided they didn’t want him either.
