It must have been the book 'Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil', or all the Hollywood movies, I feel the need to discover more of North America, the heart land. I have no baggage, I have no hang ups. I was born and raised in Italy. I am capable to accepting people of all personalities, as long as they are good people. I believe that in the world the majority of people are of a good nature, and those are the people I want to meet on this trip.
I love to make connections, whether we are soaking in the campground jacuzzi, or waiting in a museum line, or having a beer in a bar. I love a good story.

Day 75 - Birmingham to Nashville

It was a long drive but pleasant.
This campground is very close to the city. It has no amenities and it's by a road. There are a lot of permanent campers.
The manager is nice and helpful. There was an issue with our faucet and he came with his assistant to change it with a new one. He also helped us back in which was awesome!

At night we drove out to Music Row area and we found free parking by BMI.
We went to the Tin Roof bar, because every Wednesday they feature 6 new artists. Each one performs 3 new songs. This is not the main venue, but it feels more like the original one, where artists would try to break into the business by performing their original songs with their bands and it was not necessarily for tourists. I am glad we spent our evening here.

The first guy was alone with his acoustic guitar. Maybe the sound was not refined, or the words were not flowing but he was singing out from his heart and his shoes were the bomb.

Other bands followed, some so loud our ears got a workout (mental note: bring ear plugs when in Nashville).
There was a rap duo. They were worth the video ðŸ˜„


Everyone liked this young guy. He was so romantic and his girlfriend was on the sidelines lip-sinking, and with that I don't mean his buddy working on the background. Cute!

  2. Naaaaaashville! We heard all the cool people are moving there. It’s on our list to visit someday. And hang out in a bar and co-write a few songs with some famous people while having a drink :-)
