Nashville cats, play clean as country water
Nashville cats, play wild as mountain dew
Nashville cats, been playin' since they's babies
Nashville cats, get work before they're two

While I am not an ardent fan of Country Music, I do enjoy it. Since no trip to Nashville would be complete with out listening to some "Country" we did just that, at perhaps the most famous County Music venue of all:
the Grand Ole Opry.
The Grand Ole Opry Theater is located outside downtown Nashville in basically its own country: Opryland. In addition to the theater, there is a huge convention center, large hotels, what looked like medical clinic and it is adjacent to a very large mall.
What is interesting about the Grand Ole Opry, is that it is not just a concert but also a live radio broadcast. In fact, it is the longest running broadcast in U.S. radio history. During the show, in between the acts, there are commercials by the shows sponsors. They also announce birthdays and anniversaries and there are welcomes to various groups in attendance. Another fun thing they do is little contests with members of the audience.
The show itself is a showcase of various artists. There is a nice mix of old timers and new comers so there is something for everyone.

All in all, the Grand Ole Opry is definitely worth a visit.
