Seven Shows For Seven Years: Happy Birthday, Mercy Lounge

We like this trend of businesses celebrating birthdays by giving us, the patrons, free gifts. The Mercy Lounge is celebrating their seventh anniversary with a week-long string of free shows, beginning this Saturday and continuing through next Saturday. Did we mention that it’s free? The lineup just gets better and better as the days go [...]

Tonight: AA Bondy & Elvis Perkins At The Mercy Lounge

Once in a blue moon, Nashvillest gets so excited about some live music rolling through town that we can’t help but share our love with y’all, and tonight’s Elvis Perkins/AA Bondy bill at the Mercy Lounge meets the criteria. A mellow evening of melodic folk music by a pair of top-notch songwriters? Yes please. Opener [...]

Weekendist: Halloween Showdown Edition

We’ll never know how it got to be the end of October already, but when it comes to milking Halloween for all it’s worth, Nashville has you covered. So bust out your crazy costumes and see how much of this you can fit into one weekend. We dare you. Also, we love y’all a whole [...]

The Weekendist: Independence Day Essentials

Bad eighties movies at the Belcourt? Check. Bands with delusions of grandeur blowing it up the Grand Old Opry House? Check. [...]

Happy Hour: Feeding The Animals

Girl Talk probably won’t be playing the Cannery again any time soon. Something about “younger and stupider” fans making half the stage collapse and everyone getting kicked out or something? Wish we were there! [Tennessean]

MTSU [...]

The Weekendist: Apples To Apples Edition
