Hi Gang:

Those of you coming to Nashville early next month for Fan Fair.....o.k., the CMA Music Fest....are going to have quite a treat in store when you reach our downtown area.

The sparkling, sprawling new Music City Center opened this past weekend, and while I didn't get to see but a fraction of the mammoth interior, I saw enough to come away very impressed. I think you'll be impressed as well.
