longhorn14, the walk is plenty safe, I would say. It's just pretty lengthy... I would suggest using Uber or Lyft. It's 90 degrees here today and super humid!

Thanks, much appreciated! I'll look into taxis U suppose. I don't mind walking in the heat, but walking home in the dark is a different story if safety is a concern.

The Frist Center, at 10th and Broad, is a great art venue, and it's by the Union Station hotel which is worth a peek inside.
The famous clothier to the stars, Manuel, has a store at 8th and Broad.
The 'Arcade', with entries on both 4th and 5th avenues off Church St, downtown, has art galleries, and food shops including a famous 'Planters' peanut shop.
Dunn Bros. has great coffee ! It's on 4th Ave between Church St and Commerce St.

did anybody get a vip ticket to the nashville show? if so what time do you have to be at the stadium? i have one for the raleigh show july 1st. want to get an idea of what time to leave and arrive at show. thanks for any info.
have fun in nashville!

I did, but I'm here in Nashville and so far haven't received any instruction for entrances or special times etc... They said we would, but if it doens't happen the plan is to just go to any gate with the tickets and I'm sure they'll guide us from there.. If I hear more I'll post it!

Anyone else over in East Nashville? We grabbed a great place to stay on airbnb and are planning on using uber or lyft to get to show tomorrow if anyone wants to join.

Cool! East Nashville is great. There are some really good casual restaurants over there. Five Points Pizza is a highlight. The Five Spot is a great place for music and cheap beer.

On the way back, I would take a very leisurely time and stop in to the honky tonks on Broadway for a bit. Grab a cab or Uber when its convenient.

I like Acme for grabbing something quick before a show, because the food's not bad and the service is quick. You order at the counter, and they bring it to the table. If it's jammed downstairs, the upstairs floors are available. There are lots of local beers on tap. I think it's a better selection than Rock Bottom.

Sounds good. I will try to be there late afternoon, before I go to the show. Great view to the venue as it seems.

Wow, that is one amazing seat.

Arrived in Nashville this afternoon following a 7 hr. drive. Checked out the walk from Hotel Indigo to LP Field, it is a SHORT walk and is safe. That was a concern to me (and I have read posts from others wondering about the same thing). There is a lot of entertainment on the streets and in the bars all around. The feeling here is a good one and all indications are that the Stones will have a GREAT crowd. Very exciting. Will post after the concert tomorrow night. GONNA SEE THE STONES!!!!!!

Have a great time!

Stones show tonight!!! I am ready!!! Up Periscope!!

I have nothing nice to say about these designs for Nashville [rollingstones.shop.bravadousa.com]

I was in Nashville a few months ago, for music.

never seen so many bars, on Broadway, the 'honky tonks'. its touristy for sure but there were some damn good bands playing in some of them. at like noon, or early afternoon.

also, Yazoo is a very good Nashville brewery, I liked that beer a lot.

The litho is ok but I agree on the shirts. I follow music like others follow sports. Translation = NFL team colors on a tongue does NOTHING for me. Many others will feel differently ofcourse.

So far the only thing I want is the San Diego lithograph on a shirt!

I didnt fully realize they were NFL colors on the stripes, hmmm.

Then I think I would actually like them better if they left off the words "THE ROLLING STONES" above the striped tongue (leave them off the front of the shirts, they are fine on back).

I imagine it would cost too much to have the NFL team logo on the tongue, but without an NFL logo then just the striped tongue alone with no words would be more subdued and cooler. If someone "out there" does not know that the tongue means the Stones at this point then

I agree the neon poster for Nashville, even if it is a reboot, is still cool.

I wish they would show us ALL of the posters in the running for each stop, I am just curious and a fan of posters of all types.

Enjoy the show everyone. I'm happy with my Atlanta show last week or I would consider doing this one, too. But, I have no doubt Nashville will also get an "A" show tonight.

I hope Mick makes mention of Bobby and the tribute show at the Mercy Lounge...

or Keith, to start his segment ..

Have a feeling this will be a hot show tonight!
wish I was going but you cant see em all;
next up is Milwaukee for me next week...

The music city shirt is now available and looks really fine. Hopefully Buffalo has a nice poster/shirt design plus we'll see about the hoodie will will obviously be the football teams colors.

When will they soundcheck today?
