Bright & Early: Green, Greener, Greenest Edition
Good morning, Nashville. Mayor Dean will be making an appearance at the Nashville Farmer’s Market today to discuss some new initiatives aimed at preserving our city’s green space and making us the greenest city EVER. If you’re one of the three people who has nowhere to be at 1pm today, you can head over to [...]
Bright & Early: Christmas In July Edition
Good morning, Nashville. Metro Councilwoman Karen Bennett is concerned that chopping down a city Christmas tree every year might not be the best way to go green. She’d rather Metro plant an evergreen tree in the public square to hang out year-round and be spruced up for the holidays, and she’s proposed a resolution asking [...]
Bright & Early: When We Think Tim McGraw
Good morning, Nashville. We know winter in Nashville can get a little boring, so we’re glad that Tim McGraw and Gwenyth Paltrow have decided to spice it up a bit by filming a new movie here. We have no idea what this movie will be about and we can’t imagine what sort of convoluted plot [...]

Go Green This Weekend At The Nashville Earth Day Festival
We had such a great time at the Nashville Earth Day Festival last year that we couldn’t wait for it to come back around. Seriously. We came home with bags upon bags of freebies, most notably from Whole Foods. So basically, we can’t wait to loot the Earth Day Festival again this year! The 2009 [...]
Happy Hour: Who’s Your American Idol?
If you’re the American Idol-watching type (we know you’re out there), be on the lookout for Nashvillian and Belmont alum Ricky Braddy to compete tonight. Good luck, Ricky! [Tennessean] Congrats to the Gulch, which somehow ended up on the list for “LEED for Neighborhood Development” certifications, making them the first neighborhood in the South to [...]
Going Green: Capture Music City Mini-Challenge
A few weeks ago, we told you about the Tennessean’s Capture Music City photography contest, which we really think is one of the coolest things that the Tennessean has done in years. Over the next few months, they’ll be setting up a couple of mini-challenges to help you get the votes you need to make [...]
