We are in the thick of summer now and the summer tours are heating up as the temperature rises. Nashville is about to boil over with all the live music coming to town. The month of July in Nashville should be renamed to Legend due to the number of shows hitting Music City over the course of the next few weeks loaded with hall of fame talent. Country, R&B, Christian, rock, and alternative are some of the genres bringing legendary artists and bands to middle Tennessee. Congratulations to those of you who were able to beat the ‘final boss’ aka Ticketmaster to score Garth Brooks tickets this month. You are the real MVP.
