Bright & Early: This Cat Is Wearing A Sweater Edition
Good morning, Nashville. After a somewhat disastrous winter snow-wise, Metro Schools officials are proposing a few major changes to next year’s schedule to accommodate some extra snow days. This, of course, means that temperatures probably won’t dip below 50 degrees next winter because that’s just how things work around here! At any rate, there will [...]
The New Brew On The Block: Meet Jackalope Brewing [Nashville Newcomers]
Last week, the news of Jackalope Brewing Company burst into Nashville and set the internets a-buzzin’ with chatter about the new brewery on the block (beer has a funny way of doing that). From the sound of things, big plans are in store for Jackalope – Tennessee’s first female-run commercial brewery will include a beautiful [...]
OktoberStreetFesting: A Guide To Side-By-Side German Festivities This Weekend
It’s an old story if you’ve been in Nashville for longer than a year or two – No, Nashville’s Oktoberfest in Historic Germantown and the Germantown Street Festival are not the same festival. They were, but that’s a tale for another time. The separate-but-equal-ish festivals take place this weekend to celebrate Oktoberfest, same time, same [...]
Bright & Early: Working Hard For The Money Edition
Good morning, Nashville. Yesterday we took a look at lawsuits that are draining Metro Schools’ budget. Today we learn that the city has doled out over a half-million dollars in settlements over the last two months for incidents including a car accident with a MNPD officer, the infamous gold grill scandal and a wrongful arrest. [...]
Pour Up: Yazoo Tweet-Up Tonight At The Melrose Pub
The good folks over at Yazoo Brewery are celebrating 2,000 Twitter followers by hosting a tweet-up (that’s Twitter-speak for a plain old meet up, in case you were wondering) tonight. But before you start heading over to the taproom, you should probably know that the Yazoo tweet-up is not actually at the Yazoo brewery. It’s [...]
Yazoo Outgrows Marathon Building, Heading To Gulch
Though we love Yazoo Brewing’s space in the Marathon Building, after taking a tour of the brewery late last year, we realized how cramped they are back there. And if today’s announcement that Yazoo is packing up and moving to a larger space in the Gulch means more Yazoo for us, well, you won’t find [...]
Happy Hour: Pucker Up!
We saw this headline and thought we’d be able to tell you how to win kisses from your favorite country star (you DO have a favorite country star… right?) but it looks like it’s just a lame imprint being auctioned off on Ebay. The un-lame part is that the proceeds are going to domestic violence [...]
Photo Of The Day: October 29, 2008
We loved the nostalgic color treatment on this photo by skiphopkins, taken outside the old Marathon building/Yazoo HQ/favorite Nashvillest watering hole. Photo Of The Day will be a recurring feature for Nashvillest as long you keep giving us stuff to post. Don’t worry–we’ll give you props. Just add them to the pool or tag them [...]
Oktoberfest, Er, Germantown Street Festival, Er, What?
Though it was announced weeks ago that Germantown’s annual Oktoberfest celebration would be splitting into two separate festivals… On the same day… At the same time… In the same place. Well, people are still confused, and rightly so. Let’s just make this clear: There are two festivals this year. And that’s all we’re going to [...]
