Road Trip Day 2

Early in the evening at the Mercy Lounge

Saturday, September 14, 2008

8:23 pm - From my 24 hours in Nashville, I have determined the city is
the home of the Grand Ole Opry; good barbeque; Vanderbilt University;
country music; a weathered old cabbie with tobacco stains around his
lips who spoke like a Southerner but had an intimate knowledge of New
York City; and - disappointingly - not Elvis.

It is also the home of a 6.4 billion dollar music industry, almost all
of which is based around country music. But - as both major candidates
can attest - change is in the air, and so the Rock the Vote Road Trip Bus stopped in at the Mercy Lounge to listen in to a concert in 'The Next Big Nashville'
series. The idea is essentially to promote all of the non-country
bands out here.

As important as you may think what you're doing is ... take it from an old man, it's even more important. You guys may well be our last best hope. Or more accurately, your last best hope. Keep on bussin'.
