Mumford & Sons Announce Three-Day March Run At The Ryman

If there’s one thing we learned from a certain late-night excursion last year, it’s that Nashville loves Mumford & Sons – or maybe they just really love us. Okay, they definitely love us. If you didn’t get a chance to catch Mumford & Sons at their sold-out War Memorial show in November 2010, they’re coming [...]

The Civil Wars Headline The Ryman January 12, Tickets On Sale October 21

The Civil Wars have announced their first headlining performance at The Ryman, set for January 12. We’ve watched them go from playing for a handful of people at the French Quarter Cafe to playing for thousands on the Adele tour and selling out theaters on their own, and we’re pretty dang proud that Nashvillians can [...]

Bright & Early: Out Of Line Edition

Good morning, Nashville. We can’t believe we’ve just been sitting and suffering through the deafening drone of the cicadas for the past few weeks when we could have been phoning in a noise complaint, which is exactly what one Cookeville man did last week. He thought the noise was coming from loud machinery, and sheriff’s [...]

Bright & Early: Take Us Out To The Ballgame Edition

Good morning, Nashville. We’re running short on time this morning, so you know the drill. Your abbreviated Bright & Early: Happy opening day, baseball fans! Not that we have any major league teams around here to follow, but at least a few of us limped into Nashville from other parts of the country with our [...]

Bright & Early: It’s A Cluster Edition

Good morning, Nashville. If ever there were a perfect storm of traffic congestion downtown Nashville, tonight would be the night. Road closures for the Titans’ final preseason game will start at 4:30pm, followed by the wave of folks pouring into the Bridgestone Arena for Brooks & Dunn’s last-ever show (well, until the inevitable reunion tour). [...]

Happy Hour: Bouncing Right Back

Good news! Our water reserves are holding steady enough that Mayor Dean said car washes can reopen for at least a few hours every day. Sadly, they’re revoking our temporary HOV lane privileges as of next Monday. [WTVF & Examiner] Sen. Lamar Alexander says that a new EPA guideline regarding lead paint could drastically slow [...]

Bright & Early: Manic Tuesday Edition

Good morning, Nashville. Along with leaving homes and properties in shambles, the flood also caused a record spike in unemployment according to the Tennessee Department of Labor. Thanks to huge employers like the Opryland properties closing down for months to come, thousands of Tennesseans have been left without work. The Department of Labor, which usually [...]

The Tuesdayist: Wait, What Do You Mean It’s Not The Weekend Yet?

If you can peel yourself away from LOST and/or Glee tonight, there’s so many great events happening in this city tonight that you’d almost think it’s a weekend. We thought we’d take a few minutes to run through the highlights. Hey, Tuesday is the new hump day, right? The Swell Season at the Ryman. 7:30pm, [...]

Bright & Early: Too Many Tubes Edition

Good morning, Nashville. A few months ago, we congratulated Metro Nashville Public Schools for finally diving head-first into the world of Twitter and Facebook. Now we’re learning that they had something even bigger up their sleeves the whole time: M-Tube. MNPS officials have created their own version of YouTube that they plan to keep stocked [...]

Here’s The Deal: Post-Flood Progress Report [Flood 2010]

We’re finally starting to wrap our minds around the damage to our city as best we can, and we continue to have our minds blown at the progress that’s being made on the clean-up each day. We’ve got quite the mess on our hands and we’re dealing with it, because that’s what we do. We’ve [...]
