Music City...Nashville, Tennessee

Nashville 4-17 thru 4-22

Well, here we are in Nashville, TN, home of country music! I had to hold Walt back, he wanted to get on stage everywhere we went! Especially at the Wild Horse Saloon!This is the Ryman Auditorium - the original home of the Grand Ole Opry. Beautiful old architecture! Below is a pic of the Tennessee Titan football stadium.We went to a couple of country music shows and in the campground where we stayed - Two Rivers, we met the road manager and piano player for The Judds! It was exciting to talk to them and hear "inside info" about their experiences on the road with the stars! They have also invited us to join them on the next tour with VIP show tickets! How can we refuse that! The tour starts in November (around Thanksgiving) in Connecticut and ends in Las Vegas. We will probably meet up with them closer to Vegas. Did you know Naomi is really Diana and Wynonna is really Christine?  Actually Ashley is really Ashley but not a Judd (different father).  As most of you know, we are headed to WV, with a stop over in VA to visit some friends. The road manager actually lives in Virginia Beach and wants us to contact him when we get there to attend an informal jam session with some other country musicians while we are there. We are really excited about this! I have received regular emails from them since we left Nashville! Tooooo Cooool!This is a pic of our RV with the Judds road manager's RV right behind us. His RV used to belong to the Judds, they bought it in 1995. They have several Prevost tour buses now!  They would rather travel in this old RV because the Prevost RV's are equipped with about 10 bunks and a bathroom with no shower and no slide outs.  Would  you believe Naomi and Wynonna started out in just a car! Wow, who says there is no future in country music!
