Marathon Motor Works on Clinton St. is the location of the American Pickers retail shop plus various other shops and historical displays of the Marathon cars once manufactured in Nashville. https://search.aol.com/aol/image;_ylt=A0geJGtNf55irLQAx5ZpCWVH;_ylu=Y29sbwNiZjEEcG9zAzMEdnRpZAMEc2VjA3Nj?q=marathon+village+nashville+tn+american+pickers&v_t=webmail-searchbox Hopefully this link works, if not google Marathon Motor Works. And then...no Mopar Hemis but a very interesting collection: https://www.lanemotormuseum.org/

Johnson's Horsepowered Garage is an awesome experience, you have to get a hold of them and see if you can get in, it is a private car collection, google it! I have gotten them around a dozen cars over the last two years, lots of Mopars! They are located southwest in Columbia, TN.

If you like music nostalgia, the RCA Studio B tour is a must. Visiting the original Grand Ole Opry at the Ryman Auditorium is a must. Taking in a show at the new Grand Ole Opry is highly recommended. I am not a CW fan but I went to a Grand Ole Oprey show and I would go again.

Gaylord Opryland resort is kind of nice, if you like the resort environment. I enjoyed it there anyway. Bourbon Street, located in Printers Alley, is a pretty good place if you're tired of country and would rather hear some blues. Guitar player friend Chris plays a few days a week at Robert's western world. He moved out there from MI many years ago. He's always a fun listen and very entertaining, but with all due respect to the history of them....the environment of those tiny venues like that really isn't always the best place to see a musician. https://www.chriscasello.com/gigs.html

If Diego is there, avoid that guy. He always thinks his opinion is the only one that matters,
I'm happy to prove you correct.

We went here. I was a little disappointed. I guess I expected to see more "picked" stuff. There were way more made in China flee market type souvenirs than antiques. The rest of the Marathon building, however, was very interesting. We went on a tour of the Ryman Auditorium which I'd recommend. Also, any of the bars on Broadway. Most are three stories tall and have a different band on each floor.

This year should be a good one. Last Monkee alive along with one of the original Monkeemobile's will be there as well.

I went and saw another guitar player buddy Mike Tobin at that Hot Wheels show one time, back in the olden pre-Covid days.......I think it was '19 or '18 but am not willing to dig too hard for it. Junior Brown was the headliner that year/I'm a fan so I couldn't miss that one! I've paid to see Junior a couple times and to catch him for free at a car show is a treat. SurfraJettes were on the bill too and also alot of fun.
