The Brookses go to Nashville

Jake and I celebrated our two year anniversary a few weeks ago! So many of our friends have sung Nashville's praises, so we decided to take a little trip down to Tennessee for our anniversary. We loved it! It was a music lover's dream. So much history to see at the Ryman, tons of record shops (Jack White's Third Man Records!), and live music everywhere you go. Seriously though, we walked around at 3:00 on a Tuesday and heard many places with bands playing. 

The highlight of our trip actually happened on our anniversary. We went to Prince's Hot Chicken for lunch. It was an...interesting place. However, their chicken was really amazing. While waiting for our food, we met Brian. He is a music producer and told us all of these places in Nashville we should check out. He even invited us to see him play in a band that night at The 5 Spot. It is a great hole-in-the-wall place that was featured in the show Nashville!


The band was great and we chatted with Brian after his set about our upcoming days in Nashville  and what we were going to do. It was so fun getting to know someone from the area and trying something a little out of our comfort zone. Sometimes those circumstances make for the best memories I think.
It was a wonderful start to a great vacation!
