Insider Tips
- ✓Lower Broadway bars have free live music all day and night — you pay via drink minimums, not a cover
- ✓Try Nashville hot chicken at Prince's (the original) or Hattie B's — order one level milder than you think
- ✓The Johnny Cash Museum and Country Music Hall of Fame are within walking distance downtown
- ✓Rideshares are essential at night — parking and driving downtown on weekends is chaotic
