Nashville Tour

One of the highlights of our time in Nashville had to be our tour of the historic Ryman Auditorium. Originally built as a church, it became the first home of the Grand Old Opry in 1943. We got a special backstage tour and got to visit green rooms (dressing rooms) of some of the biggest names in country music history including Johnny Cash and Hank Williams, and Dolly Parton and Minnie Pearl. Just 2 weeks before our visit Taylor Swift had used one of the rooms on our tour, and we're pretty sure that some of her glitter was still on the make-up table. (You might want to check eBay when we get home for a sale on famous glitter!)
As for today, we just finished rehearsal so now it's lunch, packing up, then we hit the road for Wisconsin and an evening field show. Hope to see some of you there!
