Hmmmm........
Unfortunately I have no CHEAP way to get there. I have no CHEAP accomodations reserved. I'd have to fly there........use public transport or rent a car........and prolly pay a premium for a well located room. Sounds like a Nashville roadtrip would be a Ca$hville roadtrip!

Any Nashville folks know what a going rate to park from early afternoon into the night would be? And where would be safe to park? TY in advance. (Oh, and I went to the news page and saw the photo of the Margaritiaville building. Sorry, I thought it was a different one!
)

Re: Who's going to Nashville May 1, 2010?
Parking costs depend on how close to the arena you park, whatever else may be going on downtown (Ryman show, Hard Rock event, etc) and what day (weekend or weekday). For Buffett's Saturday May 1 concert expect to pay $15-25 per space. As far as safe goes downtown Nashville is about like any other medium sized city. There is safety in numbers (park near lotsa other pholks) and don't stray into dark, lonely looking areas. A cheaper parking lot further out of downtown means a longer, lonelier walk. Most pay lots have attendants on duty Fri and Sat nites but it is still not a good idea to leave things visible in your car when you park it.MaxHeadroom56 wrote:Any Nashville folks know what a going rate to park from early afternoon into the night would be?

If you reserve early, it's $10/space. If you arrive the day of event without reserving, it's special event prices.borovy3488 wrote:That's AWESOME news!!! I'll see you there! If you don't mind me asking, what's the going rate per space in that lot?Michel2852 wrote:

In a few hours from now, it'll be ONE WEEK until we get there !!! And I haven't even started to pack.
Friday weather: Sunny, High 75, Low 56
Saturday weather: 30% Isolated Thunderstorms, High 76, Low 57
Sunday weather: don't ask.
I guess I'll pack rain gear in addition to my flowered shirts.

Don't worry! I'll be at the Nashville show. I just had a couple people back out on me, so I am trying to get rid of extra seats. Mom is doing MUCH better!

Re: Who's going to Nashville May 1, 2010?
Can anyone tell me which lot they booked for tailgating? And how far is the parking lot from the Sommet Center?
I tried to call Sean Bowman but they are closed on Saturday and Sunday. I want to make sure which is the right
lot to book my parking spot. They have about 6-7 parking lots and since I have never been to Nashville, not quite familiar
with all the streets.....The general phone number is 888-359-0089 or 615-238-2250.....Thanks everyone for your help!!
OMG one week from today we'll be there!!!
