    Just remember, the hot chicken tastes great going down, not so much going out.  ;)

    If you do the Johnny Cash Museum check out the his bar next door.  Live music and make your way to the second floor where it’s designed as a replica of the cabin where he was born.  Totally unexpected when we wandered up there.

    I have some music recommendations: the Country Music Hall of Fame (for any music lover), Hatch Show Prints also has a store on site. They make gig posters and some really cool stuff. Third Man Records is also nearby. The arena is right in the middle of downtown so you'll get your fill of that on the two days of shows. Personally, I wouldn't visit any other time. It's really changed alot in the last 10 years and not for the better, IMO.

    In 2022 my son and I did Hatch Show Prints tour, toured the Ryman and caught their minor league baseball team. All were worth it.

    I’m not brave enough for hot chicken. Any hamburger recommendations? Oysters?

    I moved from Nashville to Georgia several years ago so I don't really know about new places but I always enjoyed the burgers at Brown's Diner. It's a hole in the wall but it's been around forever. Gabby's Burgers and Fries is also really good.

    You don’t need to get hot. Party Fowl does some decent chicken without much spice. Had dinner there in a work trip few years back. We stayed at Omni, and it was about a 10-15 minute walk. 

    Edit: this place does burgers too. Just checked their menu.
