Shenanigans need to occur.

The closest one to downtown is on Elliston Place about 1 1/2 miles from Bridgstone Arena.

Also note that particular Krispy Kreme is a 2 minute or less walk from Rotier's and real parrotheads know what Jimmy thinks of the cheesburgers there.

I am now in phul " " mode.

Yes we are staying there too.

We will be arriving around 2 or 3 on Friday!! Does anyone have plans for Friday night yet? We haven't planned anything yet, so we're open to suggestions!!! I'm getting so excited!! Is it to early to start packing?????? LOL

Hate to be so out right, but this is my first Buffett show and I really want to have the whole experience. Does anyone mind if my wife and I join them tailgating?

4 more parrotheads at the HI Express. We will probably get there at check in time on Sat. Where are you all going to party?

Friday afternoon at Rotier's for a Jimmy endorsed cheeseburger and then the Peter Mayer show at The Rutledge that nite. The 7PM show is sold out but they added a second show at 9:30PM.

PIMPING ALERT
Phor those attending the pre-party party at Rippy's, there will be some gift baskets being auctioned off for the Music City Phins charities of choice. ONE OF THOSE will be a "Viginia is PHor Lovers" gift basket put together by your very own Auntie and her pal Beth...please bid on it so I don't feel like a loser!!!

Will be in Nashville from Texas. Staying at the Hilton. Looking for some tailgaiting or pre-concert fun. How can I find out what's happening.

Sevierville here too!

keep your eyes open for a Silverado going down Dolly Parton Parkway wide open with PHINS painted all over the windows heading to 40 West.....

Is anyone staying at the Renaissance? Sister and I going alone to Nashville, usually only go to Cincy and Indy with the guys. Hoping to meet other parrotheads!

Hubby and I are staying at the Union Station and are coming in on Saturday morning. We'll be at Rippy's for the pre-concert party. We just finished listening to the Atlanta concert! Wow! What a set list! I'm just too excited now!!!!!

I thought about that a few pages ago.....it being Nashville, who knows who'll show up ?
And I also went to the ZBB website and they have nothing scheduled for May 1. hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?

Something else I thought about.....making a huge "BEFORE" sign and standing in front of where Margaritaville will be and have a picture taken, then next year (IhopeIhopeIhope) when Jimmy comes back to Nashville, I can bring a huge "AFTER" sign and have someone take a picture.

I think the "before" and "after" is brilliant! Lets stagger over say 2pm and take a group shot? I'll drag the PHs from the Premier Lot on 2nd /3rd and Molloy that direction.

Four NC parrotheads arriving Friday afternoon. Got a recommendation to try Merchants for dinner on Friday. You are more than welcome to join us.

Coming in on Friday from Philly going to be out and about on Friday night taking suggestions that I have seen on this thread so hopefully we will bump into some PH's. Saturday planning on tailgating at the Premier Lots looking to be adopted as we will not have all our usual tailgating necessity and hoping for no rain...I would love to be involved in the before and after shot!!! Anyone staying at the Radisson Hotel Nashville Airport? Getting so exicted can not believe it is this close!!!!! Hoping for a surprise at the concert.

There are always surprises in Nashville! I am hoping for the Zac Brown Band.

Managed to catch some of the Atlanta sound check before it disappeared yesterday. I notice it seems Jimmy is adding new songs as the tour continues. Wonder if we'll get to hear Nashville Grand Ballroom Gown Saturday? Not one he's done in concert much but one that always made an impression on me!

Hoping the rain stays away til at least til the show begins. And it will allow for a great tailgate. Forecast now is for 60% thunderstorms high of 78.

The weather here has been STUPID for weeks. If you have allergies, bring meds. The pollen is thick! As for the rain, I spent all day in rain and hail yesterday and have no voice today. Not good for someone who talks to people all day for a living! I am hoping the rain holds off, but there is no telling what will happen. All weather complaints can be issued to Al Gore. . .he lives about five miles from me.

Okay, I'm ready to go now!
