Bright & Early: Can’t Take The Heat Edition
Good morning, Nashville. We interrupt this edition Bright & Early to set the record straight on something very important: With hot chicken popping up everywhere from Church’s to some random diner in Michigan, it is absolutely vital that we remember that hot chicken started here in Nashville. No matter who tries to claim it or how many [...]
Tales From The Nashville Film Fest: How William Shatner’s Gonzo Ballet Stole Our Hearts
On Friday night, your Nashvillest editors had the chance to spend the evening with William Shatner at the premiere for William Shatner’s Gonzo Ballet–a documentary about, well, ballet and Shatner. Though we’re not the biggest ballet fans in the world, we do remember rocking out to Shatner’s Has Been record in the dorm room when [...]
Since We’re Not Snowed In: More Music Tuesday Edition
If you can manage to dig your way out of the mountains of snow that accumulated overnight (okay okay, so we actually haven’t seen any snow in Green Hills, but it sure sounded like a big deal) tonight, there are a few places that you may want to turn your attention. Because what’s a Tuesday [...]
Happy Hour: Sometimes We Celebrate The Wrong Holiday
Maybe it’s the spring fever talking, but something about multiple Clarksville residents calling in to report a deer running around with a plastic pumpkin stuck on its head sends us into fits of giggles today (click-worthy for the picture.) [WSMV] Oh, and also, KATE FROM LOST has been in town for the past few days, [...]

This Just In: Ben Folds At The Ryman April 7
From the looks of things, one of our favorite hometown heroes, Mr. Ben Folds himself, will finally be returning to play another show in Nashville (that isn’t at the Schermerhorn, as awesome as that was).

The film chronicles the determination of choreographer Margo Sappington to, um, boldly go where no [...]
Photo Of The Day: November 14, 2008 [Feel Good Friday]
Ben Folds and his kids, Gracie and Louie, were spotted by Flickr user Alexa Sullivant near SATCo on Election Day. And what Nashvillian doesn’t love Ben Folds, right? 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 [...]
Ben Folds: All Up In Your A Capella Group
There’s just no predicting what one of our favorite Nashvillians, Ben Folds, will do next. He might cover an obscene Dr. Dre song. He might create a ringtone orchestra at one of his concerts. He might do a series of symphony performances. He might pen the soundtrack for an animated children’s film. He might leak [...]
