    how is the sound at Bridgestone? I'm in 118 currently so I think I'll be good, but i've sat in similar locations in big arenas and had terrible echos.
    Great sound!  It was built with concerts in mind. 
    Sound was phenomenal in 2022. had lower bowl back right. looks like we have 200-level perpendicular to stage so this will be a test.

  • Hi everybody! I am iso two tickets for me and my momma for either of the Nashville shows. I cannot trade, but I can buy your tickets from you. I entered the pre sale for Pittsburgh and like many others, I missed out on them. If anyone has any tickets they want off their back, let me know! Also, does anyone have any advice on what tickets might look like closer to the date of the concert? Do you guys think more people will want their tickets gone in the future? Has anyone had any luck with finding tickets later on? Any help is appreciated ! I’m just scared I’m not doing enough to get any.  Thanks guys!

    Don't be scared. There is not much you can do now anyway. Once Fan to Fan opens you can try to get tickets on there. If you are not picky about your seats you should definitely be able to get some sooner than later. If you are looking for GA or really good seats near the stage, it may take longer to find something. But if you are on there frequently tickets will show up. The closer to show day, the more tickets that will be dropped both by fans who realize they can't make it, and by Ticketmaster who will often drop rows and rows of seats the week of the show. Just be patient, and don't buy premium tickets.

    When Fan 2 Fan begins it becomes a free for all (including bots) looking for tickets. There will be a lot of people looking to upgrade their seats so if they find some they will most likely sell their other ones. Like me for instance. Keep an eye out for when F2F starts and keep an eye out here in the Forum for people announcing they are putting tix back into the system to sell.

    If anyone with close seats N2 wants to trade for my 104 row F so my husband can have an amazing first show, that would be stellar lol. Joking, mostly. It'll be a fantastic show!

    I got night 1 for Nash!!  Now, where do I stay and where do I eat all the BBQ??!!?   I will be there from May 5 through May 9.  
    Go to Peg Leg Porker its great!  also same guy that started Peg Leg has a new place, Bringle's Smoking Oasis.  Edley's is good too.  Stay away from Jim and Nick's.  Their locations are only good in Alabama.  
    Good tips.  Writing Peg Leg down on things to do list.  Third man is on the list.  What else?  Locals, talk to me.  Tell me your secrets.  
    Martins is good BBQ also. And I agree with Edley's too
    Most bars on Broadway are tourist honky tonks. they won't be stupid crowded on a week night, but about the only local bar downtown is Broadway Brewhouse. Mix of cajun and bar food and great beer selection. Corner Pub is another local place, but it's on the corner of 5th and Church.
    For great burgers - Gabby's, Hugh Baby's (these first 2 are my personal favorite), Browns diner, and I like Burger Republic also down in the gulch. There's also a Rotier's in the arena (stand on main concourse outside sec 119/120). The original location closed a few years ago, and it's the only location of it now, but it's still great. it's served on French bread

    Hot Chicken - Real hot chicken is a 1/4 or 1/2 chicken (breast, leg, thigh, wing) on white bread with pickle. Prince's is the best. they invented it and it's still fantastic. it's a drive out to their location on Nolensville and OHB, but worth it if you've got a car. There is one in Assembly Food hall, but they only serve tenders, so if that's your thing, go for it. Bolton's spicy chicken and fish is great too. 400 degrees and Pepperfire are also good. Hattie B's has the most locations, and it's good, but not as good as the others. 

    Assembly Food hall has a great mix of local places. it's across from the arena on 5th. 

    Sushi - Sonobana, Blue Sushi, and even though it's not the best, but still good and it's all you can eat Sushi Train
    Fancy Meal around downtown - EV's, Bob's steakhouse, Bourbon steak (it's a chain but at the top of the JW Marriot and great views). I haven't been there, but hear Skull's Rainbow Room is great. (Plenty of others here, but these are one's I've been too or was recommended)

    Fun places with food - Clyde's on Church (games like ping pong and shuffleboard with good beer selection and good food). Puttshack (indoor mini golf with bar and food). around the corner from Puttshack  is Pins Mechanical. it's indoor mini bowling with other games you can play. The bowling you have to pay for, but other stuff is free. only a bar but you can have food delivered there.  Also, there's Game Terminal, which you'll have to drive/uber too just outside of downtown. it's an 80s style arcade with all the great games in a bar with food too There's probably 200 arcade games and 50+ pinball games. Real fun.

    Breakfast - Biscuit love( in the gulch and Belcourt Ave). Big Bad Breakfast on Charlotte (drive or uber too) and next door to that is Wendell Smith's which is old school. it's also a meat and 3.  Monell's in Germantown. it's family style, so you'll be at a giant table with other people. Pancake Pantry in Hillsboro Village and then Loveless Cafe on Hwy 100 in Bellevue

    Late night eats - Joyland. The Diner in downtown. it's 6 floors with different style on each floor. ML Rose (good burgers and wings and local beer selection). Velvet Taco. Barrel Proof.

    Would also recommend SATCO (San Antonio Taco Company) on 21st by Vandy. Great fast Tex-Mex with good patio. Been a local favorite for over 40 years. If you do go there, have to order on a pad of paper and turn it in to the cashier. And Krustaceans on Donelson Pike near airport. Kind of a soul food seafood place, with some of the best fried shrimp I've had. Owners are great and super friendly too.

    There's been lots of change to downtown area, and it's still changing. it's hard to keep up lol. Lots of places I haven't been, and most locals don't hang out too much downtown. I'll let others chime in also, but have been to almost all of these or know people that have been there and recommended them. Puttshack and Pins are a good way to kill some time and have fun. Been to both of those several times.

    For any whiskey/bourbon lovers/collectors out there. Some great selection at most of the high end bars, but if you don't mind the drive, go to Bellevue to Honeyfire BBQ. Good BBQ and food, but for some reason they have a fantastic whiskey/bourbon list and cheaper than you'd find at a big restaurant bar. Pappy 10 and 20yr, Stagg, full selection of Weller, Eagle Rare 17, Elijah Craig 18 yr, etc. they have a top 5 whiskey selection in the city.




    THANK YOU!!  My list is growing, if you think of any cool sight seeing to do, list those as well.   is it worth the drive to go south to Jack Daniels?
