Nashville Crossroads honky tonk on Broadway

 

May 29 to June 3, 2008.

We are staying in Two Rivers Campground near Opry Land in northeast Nashville over the Memorial Day weekend. Two Rivers is the private campground we recommend for anyone visiting Nashville. We like it because it is $21 cheaper than the next best campground. When staying at Two Rivers Campground we pay $31 for water & 30-amps. Full-hookup and 50-amps are a bit more. But, and it is a big BUT the Yogi Bear Campground next door starts at $51 and goes up while the KOA a block away starts somewhere above that and the sky is the limit. In Nashville you are paying for LOCATION and Two Rivers Campground has LOCATION. Besides that they sponsor good entertainment in the park several times a week. When I say "GOOD" entertainment I mean FREE afternoon shows from the likes of Hot Damn out of South Florida, Paul Hill who operates out of Nashville and the incomprehendable Mel McDaniel who still resides in Nashville.

We normally look for 1/2 price PPA Campgrounds COE Campgrounds or National Park Campgrounds. But in Nashville, over the Memorial Day weekend Two Rivers Campground is our choice.

 

Nashville Crossroads is one of the classic honky tonks on Broadway that feature up and coming country music entertainers. There is absolutely no telling who you are going to see when you visit Nashville Crossroads. One thing you can be certain of: the entertainment will be top notch.

We enjoyed Jerry Williams, a good singer songwriter performing at Nashville Crossroads.

 

We also enjoyed Jerry Williams at the Stage on Broadway and I think we watched some of his show one afternoon at Legends Corner also. Jerry grew up just north of Austin, Texas.

 

 

 

Gary Morris playing at Nashville Crossroads honky tonk on Broadway

This is Gary Morris who played with Dwight Yokhum for years but is currently employed as Brooks & Dunn's steel guitar player. He is one of the best steel guitar players in the business and we were enjoying him in Nashville Crossroads, a honky tonk on Broadway Street. He was with a band comprised of fellow musicians that tour with the stars.

Also performing with that group of musicians was Roger Wills who is Alan Jackson's base guitar player.

 

In addition to being a touring musician he also performs as a studio artist playing his base guitar for the likes of Alan Jackson and Reba McEntire.

 

He had a wonderful personality.

 

After the show was over and we were exiting the honky tonk Joyce told him how much she had enjoyed his music and asked him to tell Alan "hi" for her. He smiled and said something like -- "will Saturday night be soon enough for you honey"? Joyce laughed and said that would be fine. VBG

Jennifer Wrinkle at Nashville Crossroads honky tonk on Broadway

Jennifer Wrinkle is a Country artist that we have enjoyed many times while visiting the honky tonks on Broadway. This afternoon she is the featured performer playing solo with her acoustic guitar at Nashville Crossroads.

 

In other venues we have seen her playing the fiddle with other bands.

 

Jennifer Wrinkle is such a talent. She regularly tours with Martina Mcbride and other Nashville artists. Reba McEntire used Jennifer for the background vocals on "You're Gonna Be".

 

When Martina McBride goes on the road Jennifer Wrinkle is in her band where she plays acoustic guitar, fiddle, electric guitar and adds background vocals.

 

Martina McBride Live In Concert Album features Jennifer Wrinkle on the acoustic guitar, fiddle and background vocals.

 

Martina says: “She sings like an angel”, and I agree with Martina. VBG

 

And here we are in Nashville Crossroads enjoying this wonderful musical talent.

 

One day we went for an afternoon cruise on the General Jackson Showboat that boards jusd down the road from where we are staying at Two Rivers Campground. Check these links to read about our adventure on the General Jackson Showboat: Peking Acrobats, Delta Queen, General Jackson, Joyce touring the wheelhouse on the General Jackson.

 

Until next time remember how good life is.
