Tour #7: Nashville, TN

I was in room 2-2-7.  Jealous?  Jackee?
We joined Edgar and Arch (already there for a workshop) in Nashville on Friday and immediately went looking for food downtown.  Nashville's Broadway (really called Broadway) is very touristy and kitschy, but very fun.  There is music everywhere. 
And giant guitars!!  Look closely, my eyes are closed in this shot.  Because I'm so in love with this giant guitar.
We had lunch in this place, Jack's BBQ.  Oh man.  It was amazing.  Pulled pork, five different bbq sauces, and unlimited sweet tea.  Oh and cornbread that was like a piece of cake.  Thanks, the South.

Edgar's show clothes needed some steam.

Perfect.

We had two great shows.  They were Arch's last with RedCo, which was very sad, but also fun.  We have a two person scene in the show that we've had a great time playing and it took on some serious bit water in its last night.  I'm very lucky to have played with him and am sad to see him go, but happy that he's going on to some fun new things this year.  Good luck, Arch.

We got done with our shows too late to go back downtown.  Which was unfortunate, because this was the first town we've been in where I was jazzed to go out.  Nashville karaoke bars?? Come on!  But as it is, it's only an hour or so by plane, so Matt and I will just have to have a weekend there one of these days.  Just for fun.  Instead of heading downtown, we hit a 3am bar by our hotel and hung out.  We were all exhausted, but we had a good time watching the Olympics and eating Hot Chicken Chunks.  Not a bit, that's a real menu item.  For the record, I ate no chunks.

I suppose instead of going to a bar we could've gone to this kickass Studio 54 party at the Kappa Sigma house.  As Arch yelled out our car window, "It looks like the real deal!"
My first RedCo.
