Bright & Early: Where’s The Beef Edition

Good morning, Nashville. We’re rushing a bit this morning, so here’s your abbreviated Bright & Early: Many of us are mourning the loss of legendary Nashville radio DJ Coyote McCloud, 68, who died last night on his houseboat in Percy Priest Lake. McCloud had been suffering from liver cirrhosis for quite some time and passed [...]

Bright & Early: You’re Doing It Wrong Edition

Good morning, Nashville. Things got a little rowdy at the Vanderbilt-UT game last night when Vanderbilt mascot Mister C totally decked a Commodores fan in the face. A Commodores fan! The guy left the arena with a bloody nose and presumably a bruised ego, having been betrayed by one of his own. And in that [...]

Happy Hour: For Whom The Bell Tolls

It will snow! It won’t snow! We’re getting 1/2-inch! We’re getting threeinchesplus! We’re going to get a blizzard! It might actually just rain! Winter storm warning! Winter storm warning canceled! Gosh, okay, can we stop this already? [Nashville WX] Metro Police and the FBI are looking for the guy who robbed the Regions Bank downtown [...]

Bright & Early: Wake Us When It’s Over Edition

Good morning, Nashville. Tennessee has managed to make quite a spectacle of itself in the past few weeks with our strange array of fringe gubernatorial candidates and controversial statements from the not-so-fringe ones, but we’re here to tell you that at least this leg of the journey will be over soon. You have today and [...]

Bright & Early: It’s A Marathon Edition

Good morning, Nashville. Thanks to the folks in the US House, our state is the proud recipient of $200 million more in federal flood relief aid. Though the midstate has made huge strides toward recovery in the past few months, many homes and businesses are still facing more damages than they can afford. Many folks [...]

Happy Hour: And Stay Out!

Well, obviously the big news tonight is that the Titans are suing Lane Kiffin for poaching one of their coaches. Poaching a coach, they say! It even rhymes. Anyway, this should ensure that Lane Kiffin will never be able to so much as drive through Tennessee without having his tires slashed. [Tennessean] East Tennessee is [...]

Bright & Early: The Way It Moves Edition

Good morning, Nashville. It’s one of those weird weather weeks again with blazing heat and pop-up storms–one of which actually peeled the roof clean off of a Smyrna gas station. One thing we shouldn’t have to worry about is a trend of heat-related power outages because NES insists they have it under control. In years [...]

Bright & Early: Friends In Need Edition

Good morning, Nashville. Today in CMA news (which is the only kind of news there is), Mayor Dean hopped on the stage at last night’s concert at LP Field and thanked everyone for coming to Nashville despite our mess and helping us get back on our feet. Almost as heartwarming as the Mayor’s speech was [...]

Bright & Early: The State Of Things Edition

Good morning, Nashville. This morning, Mayor Dean will be delivering his annual State of the Metro address at 10am in Riverfront Park. He’s expected to deliver all sorts of bad news about the proposed budget for next year, which will be presented to Metro after the address. As we’re all amply aware, it’s been a [...]

Bright & Early: Neck And Neck Edition

Good morning, Nashville. The seven main candidates in the 2010 Tennessee gubernatorial race went head to head last night at Belmont on all things education-related. The forum included candidates Bill Haslam, Mike McWherter, Zach Wamp, Ron Ramsey, Jim Kyle, Bill Gibbons and Kim McMillan, who covered the whole gamut of topics ranging from Pre-K to [...]
