Hello Dave and welcome to this forum. Nashville is a great place. I've not been lately, but over the last 15 or so years, have visited probably 15-20 times. Sounds like you're enjoying it. I'm in Gastonia, North Carolina. Don't tell Richard Prowse (one of our fellow forum members) that I asked you this, but you've surely had grits, right? If grits peak your interest at all, go over to the
Bull Pit thread. Go back several posts and you'll find all kinds of grits speak with other stuff mixed in as well. We've had fun with it for several weeks. Side note - my great grandfather's name was
Dave Martin! There is still a Martin family reunion each year in late summer near the "home place" about 40 minutes north of Gastonia. We could be related! Many of my relatives on that side, my dad's side, of the family were bass players, so it just came along the family tree to me.
