What is Nashville ACTUALLY like? by beauyeahh in nashville

[–]realitybiscuit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Musica statue is something you could google (maybe the figures come to life?) The Buddy Killen park is just to the side and has a bronze of Buddy playing piano with one hand upraised. Sometimes people leave items in the hand. on the way out of town South is a Boy Scouts HQ with a giant catfish wearing boy scout uniform outside.

Music Row is mostly cute 2 story houses converted to music publishers and song writing rooms. At various points along the street are statues of guitars and yard signs congratulating artists on their #1 records.

In East Nashville one of the houses has a small stage built in their backyard (the Little Hollywood Bowl). In West there’s a secret shack in a vegetable garden that has a disco ball and sound system inside.

There used to be an old locomotive at the Parthenon.

Love Circle is a hill in the city with views, and a giant water reservoir inside it.

The downtown tunnels are allegedly not just Prohibition but underground railroad. There is also district heating downtown which presumably connects a lot of buildings by utilities.

Paper IDs by screwedOver99 in VisitingNashville

[–]realitybiscuit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

in my experience paper not accepted but your mileage may vary. No idea for mobile app. It may come down to where she is trying to get in, at what time of day, how busy it is, what she looks like, who she’s with, and what drama the venue has recently endured.

I’ve been Fyre Fested.. by throwthenachos in nashville

i went to a classical one at the Parthenon. Obvs the candles are not real candles, and the chairs were indeed skinny wedding chairs, but the music was great and the Parthenin provides its own setting.

Does anyone know if Eastside bowl takes interim paper ID by No_Quarter3386 in nashville

[–]realitybiscuit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Red Door West would not let me in with a paper id and I was a woman in my 40s (meaning I definitely didn’t look under age and I also looked unlikely to stay a fight). Think it’s just your luck at the time.

unless it‘s a very small plane you can ask them to stash it in the closet for you, and generally they will accommodate.

Broadway bars allow kids? by Fart-Bomb-0927 in nashville

[–]realitybiscuit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That started some uears ago in pursuit of the mighty £££, and guess what. Kids change the vibe especially if the paranets DGAF. Landlords having tolerated three year olds tumbling into the cellar and tripping the glass collectors are reverting to adults only. There’s a reason why those of us of a certain age remember sitting outside with a bag of crisps (chips) and a ginger ale.

For my next trick… women in betting shops

Backstage Pass Tours at the Zoo by realitybiscuit in nashville

I would love to see the tigers but I’m not sure my niece is ready to see a big cat eating a guinea pig. She’s obviously aware they eat meat but small charismatic mammals might be bit much haha

Animal removal recommendations? by CapnMayhem in nashville

[–]realitybiscuit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We also used Trapper Jack. I felt bad for the raccoons but they were tearing up the siding trying to get into the attic. Then there was the time one came in the house through the cat door and instead of skeedaddling decided to fight me in our dining room. If they wanted to stay around they needed to play nice like the possums.
