Nashville is by far one of my favorite cities in the South. As tourist-trappy as it may be, I absolutely love going out to the bars on Broadway and seeing live (classic) country/western and rockabilly music.
Our primary reason for going to Nashville this time, though, was to see the Avett Brothers play at Bridgestone Arena. If you haven't listened to them before, you really ought to because they are a really awesome folk/alt country band from North Carolina...perfect for country lovers who hate mainstream country music, like myself. They put on a great show and the venue wasn't bad, though I would've preferred seeing them at the Ryman or some other smaller venue since my seats kind of sucked for the price, but other than that the show was awesome. The arena is right on Broadway, which was convenient for after-show activities.
Nashville is always one of my favorite towns to go out in because it is always packed and pretty rowdy. It may be too much for every weekend, but it's a nice change from the stuffy, almost non existent Kennesaw scene. It's really fun to people watch, too, because there's all sorts of people out and about at night in Nashville, from couples in their seventies on the dance floor, to loud rednecks, to hip college kids. Pretty much every bar has live music/a band playing, both day and night, and there's all sorts of different styles of places to choose from. My favorite place to hang out is Robert's Western World, because they generally have the best bands from what I've seen. It is always super crowded during the weekends, though, so be prepared to stand around awhile waiting for a seat. I like the bar area upstairs, it's usually less crowded and you can get a better view of the band. Always fun to get out on the dance floor too.
