There is a country music festival every year in Nashville. It happened last week and lasted four days. Since my mom had the kids for a couple of weeks to give us a break and some alone time, the hubby and I decided to go spend the day at the festival. It was amazing ! We really didn’t spend a lot of money as we decided to take advantage of the free concerts that were readily available at several different stages. We saw at least three big name performers as well as a few lesser known ones that we will be keeping an eye out for in the future as there were really good.
Jerrod Neimann was the one we really wanted to see and were so happy to be able to. Dirks Bentley showed up for a surprise performance with another group and that was awesome. Then after they were gone, we went to wander around and ran across the cast from Duck Dynasty as they were going into a restaurant. That was totally cool, but I wasn’t able to get the camera out quickly enough to take pictures of them. Boo !
We found another stage in front of the Bridgestone arena and got there just in time to see Big Smo go on and perform. Hubb’s loved that as he is a really big fan of his. He had to call one of his brothers and tell him who he was watching on stage. It was too funny. All in all we had a great time and were so happy to have the day together to enjoy just the two of us. I did feel kind of bad though, because I know that the kids would have loved it too. Ah well, I think I will take them next year. We shall see!
