We went to Nashville for the night to see Jack White play. I was pretty bummed that I missed the Memphis show, so when I saw he was playing in Nashville I really wanted to go. I've always wanted to see a show at the Ryman too.
It was such a cool venue with all of its history, stained glass + church pews. The visibility wasn't great downstairs, but it was so intimate.
The Alabama Shakes opened up. I heard a few songs, but I was standing in line for merchandise through most of it. I got a t-shirt + concert only vinyl of Sixteen Saltines (in very last photo on this post). The lines were ridiculous! Everyone wanted posters, but they were sold out by the time I decided to get in line.
It was a great show! It was really short, but Zac made the point that he was really fast between songs so he fit more songs in a short time period.
The next morning, we ate breakfast at Pancake Pantry :) I try to go every time I go to Nashville. It's so good!
*All photos that aren't instagram were taken by Jo McCaughey. They were so strict about taking pictures + even threatened to kick you out if you had your phone out AT ALL :( Crazy! But the good news is that you can download pictures from any of their shows on their website so I guess that makes up for it.
Hey there! I clicked over to your blog from a comment on instagram! I'm from Memphis too and I am obsessed with Jack White and so sad I missed both shows!
ReplyDeleteLove your blog!

ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a lovely time :) And I'm beyond jealous of the pancakes, they look amazing! It's really hard to find good pancakes in the UK, hardly anywhere serves them, especially for breakfast x
ReplyDeleteThank you Elle. It was really great ♥ Thanks for visiting.
ReplyDeleteWell if you ever want the best pancakes you need to come to Nashville, haha. Seriously though its really good. Their syrup is warm + flavored with vanilla. My hubby + I went to London for our honeymoon. We ate at The Diner http://www.goodlifediner.com/#/food/breakfast + The Breakfast Club http://www.thebreakfastclubcafes.com/brunch/ they served pancakes (both in the Shoreditch area).
