Bright & Early: Rattle And Hum Edition
Good morning, Nashville. So how about that storm last night? Even the hard sleepers among us likely heard all the racket caused by a string of severe storms that ripped through town last night, bringing some dangerous lightning, 60 mph winds and power outages with it. Though the worst of it is probably behind us, [...]
Bright & Early: The Garth Effect Edition
Good morning, Nashville. We’re running late this morning, so you know the drill: Garth Brooks sold out nine shows this weekend at the Bridgestone Arena. Nine shows! The good news is that all the proceeds go straight to the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee for flood relief. [WKRN] And though we’re more than six months [...]
Happy Hour: Party Fowl
There was some serious turkey-frying going on downtown today for Tracy Lawrence’s 4th Annual Mission Possible Turkey Fry to benefit the Nashville Rescue Mission.

And also, there was a tornado. Things should [...]
Happy Hour: Things We Wish We Never Knew
So are we the only ones who had no idea you could make meth from urine? Leave it to East Tennessee, right? ;) [Tennessean] Don’t forget: TDOT is shutting down I-40W this weekend between the I-440 split and the I-40/I-24 split near downtown. Plan accordingly! [WKRN] Some churches are being socially responsible and using “Eco-Palms,” [...]
Happy Hour: This Is When It Gets Ugly
Following the joint press conference with Mayor Dean and Gov. Bredesen this morning, Loews Vanderbilt Hotel owner and Nashville For All Of Us leader Tom Negri was nearly run over by a woman who was trying to steal an anti-English Only yard sign from outside the election commission. Police were called, but the woman was [...]
