Thoughts and Reflections of Music in the City

Welcome to Down on D' Street: Reflections on Music in the City

Welcome to Down on D' Street!

Reflections on my music experiences in Music City. Some believe that Music Row is the heart of Nashville. This blog is dedicated to those who travel up and down Demonbreun Street and Music Row.

With the numerous venues around the city, you can literally have a nightly music experience. Being a music appreciator, I attend concerts and listen to all types of music in and around the city.

I plan to use this blog as an avenue for my thoughts and to share my music experiences.

Celebrating Lower Broad and all the artists who have come through D' Street and N'ville!

Lower Broad

10:16 PM Edit This 0 Comments »

For those not familiar with Nashville, Lower Broadway or Lower Broad is where the honky tonks are! From our window at the Bennie Dillon, we can see the lights of Lower Broad on any given night. Recently, the mayor asked everyone to turn out their lights for one hour in honor of Earth Day. That night the Honky Tonks went dark for the first time in many years.

Several of the honky tonks feature country music. Most feature an eclectic mix of many types of music--which makes for an interesting variety.

Tootsie's is probably my favorite for the lavender color alone. The renovations to the Metro Int'l Airport included a "fake" Tootsie's. I encourage anyone who visits Nashville to walk through the "fake" Tootsie's, and then take a trip to the real one!

Although not a music venue, the Hatch Print Shop is famous for concert posters--vintage and today! Hatch has been around "since time began." Check out your old concert posters and I feel sure that you will find at least one designed by Hatch!
