Didn’t see this thread earlier. Did you get to see the Parthenon? ---

Damn. I’ve lived here forty years and never seen the Hermitage! ---

Belle Meade. Close enough. I hope your girlfriend enjoyed herself. I should’ve mentioned the old black guy that sits in front of the Spaghetti Factory and plays guitar for change. He’s been doing it since before I was born. ---

So…am I the only person theater-geeky enough to be trying to fit new lyrics to “One Night In Bangkok” after reading this thread title? \*wanders away fumbling with “One day in Nashville makes a Yankee stumble…” ---

We did pass in front of the Old Spaghetti Factory, and I don’t remember if there was a street musician there (lots of musicians and vendors in that part of town). I did give a buck to a guy just for playing a Townes Van Zandt song, even though he might have thought he was playing a Willie Nelson song. I get the tune on my head, JayJay, but I haven’t written new lyrics. Um, until now. One day in Nashville makes the Noth man grumble… He’ll be longing for the hotel and the cold A/C. ---

The guy’s pretty dang old by now…he may not be there much anymore. I haven’t paid him much attention in a long time. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/one-day-in-nashville-what-do-you-do/313489.md?page=1)
