How about some plans for Fri night? Somewhere downtown? Jillian's?

We should plan to meet everyone around lunchtime on Sat at the Courtyard - I've heard they have good food. We can get a drink or two head start! Oh yeah - and it would be cool to meet each other too! :smile:

I can help some with rides - look for a blue Xterra....

Im going to have to bring a note pad of everyones name, nickname on here, and the car they are driving LOL....

I can't say what we will be driving because we get a rental car at the airport. Just look for 2 lost souls drinking a beer wondering what the hell is going on.....

I am sure there are going to be hundreds of people at the Courtyard...

Any of the hotels that I have been to (in Chicago, wisconsin, cincinatti, and pittsburgh) have not had a problem with people sitting around in the parking lot drinking beer before the Buffett Concerts...

But then again, I haven't been to Nashville....I think we plan to go to the Courtyard for a bit, and then go from there..Probably stop back at the hotel...I think its on the way back to the venue, no?

Speaking for myself, I like to sleep in (depending on what happens on Friday night). Has anyone decided on a fun place downtown for Friday night??? We will have to see whats going on and how the day progresses!!!

How about the Exit Inn - it's a little south of downtown... http://nashville.citysearch.com/profile/9319092/

Or start at Market Street Brewery or Hard Rock and see where the party goes from there? Or there's the Wildhorse Saloon for the country buffs http://www.wildhorsesaloon.com/

Anyone care to "vote"?

Our plan is the Courtyard around 1 ish. (The rest of my group is driving in Saturday, so we have to be at the BWMCI in case they can't check in. 1 o'clock Courtyard, 3:00ish back to the BWMCI for tailgating, etc, 5ish try to find a way to get to AmSouth to stake out a decent lawn seat, concert, post party at BWMCI.

I haven't figured out a ride, but suspect there will be plenty of options. I'll figure all that out when I get there.

I'd definitely like to meet everyone who's been posting here, feel like I know many of you already.

Sorry--I am driving from Muncie (about 45 min north east of Indianapolis). The exit inn is at:

2208 Elliston Pl
Nashville, TN
Phone: (615) 321-4400

JB performed there early in his career.
