Did anyone sit in the club level (200s) last night? If so any feedback? 

I had 204 and upgraded to 107. Went up to check the 204 seats and they were a long way from stage. But the section was nice (bathrooms, concessions, etc.) so if you are on a side 200 section they should be pretty good.

Did anyone who sat in the 200s notice if they had a dedicated merch stand up there? Some bands do, others don't. Just want to know ahead of tonight's show so I can plan accordingly for my merch haul. Thanks!

200 level was the first place I ran when doors opened, as I was trying to beat the rush on the first floor. Unfortunately, there was no merch on 200 level. And the merch booth on 300 only had general tour merch, no show specific stuff.

Thank you, the lines inside the venue were decent on Tuesday, but didn't want to hold a skate deck in the pit. Trying to maximize my odds tonight.

Well, after all that running around, I went back downstairs, saw the HUGE line at the merch stand by the main entrance and said, "forget that." Then I went around the bend and came across 3 other merch stands with almost no line (4-6 ppl) and everything still in stock.

Heads up to everyone this afternoon, potential heavy rains/thunderstorms in the area after about 3pm. Could have some high winds, but tornado threat is very low. Gonna be scattered, but bring a jacket just in case. Hopefully any rain we get is short lived and nothing severe, but welcome to Tennessee lol

Yeah, we walked in at 6:45 and found a smaller merch stand with no line and got all we wanted sans skate deck. Will do the same as the main merch stand at the entrance gets swamped for no reason.

So with the newly selected Chicago pope, what are the odds that Eddie mentions this tonight and what song will they choose to mark the occasion?

Predicting a Wash opener with the short storm about to roll in 🤞

I don't hate it, but it would be my fifth Wash opener. I'm sort of like the Wash whisperer. haha

Martins is good and does a great brisket. Peg Leg Porker is good too. Edley's is great also. There isn't one in the immediate downtown area, but it's over near 5 points in East Nashville, a few miles away. Puckett's is good to. there's one on 5th and Church. There are Puckett's stands in the arena, but not near as good as actual restaurant. I'd say Martin's and Edley's are the top 2 BBQ places in Nashville, even though there are lots with different styles. Nashville doesn't really have a BBQ style being in between Memphis with the tomato based sauces and East TN/Carolina's with mustard and vinegar, so there's lots of different options

Martins was a 5 star meal, but better get there early. Crazy lineup when we left. We got ushered to the front because we were cool sitting at the bar.

Real bad storm blowing through. Hopefully they aren't leaving those GA folks stand in the downpour.

GA line was brought inside at 3:45pm and is waiting it out until proper entry into the arena.

So just left the merch line because it’s shut down due to weather. Staff said if you’re ready to go in, they are allowing people in. But once your in, your stuck til the show is done. Came back to room to change and get a game plan.

So doors are technically open now?

Here's hoping they play Hail, Hail given the weather and not the obvious choice of Lightning Bolt

I hit Peg Leg Porker last time. Would a local recommend Martin's BBQ Joint, back to Peg Leg, or something else in the general area of the arena?

Glad you enjoyed!  We’re you able sit upstairs?
