I got my ticket! Not sure what my travel itinerary is just yet. Right now it's looking like I'll roll into town Friday night and turn back into a pumpkin the following Tuesday afternoon.

Ugh, wish I could. Much like the Chicago show, the price of the ticket isn't the issue. It's the drive. However the fact that it's being recorded makes me happy. I'll definitely be purchasing that.

I'm new to the forum.  But I'd like to go.  If y'all don't want to hang out with me, I'll be in the back nursing a beer in silence.

I'm sure there will be some sort of pre-show meetup.

As long as the ax you're holding isn't actually dripping with blood, I will be happy to meet you.

Thinking about it.  Nashville's about a five-hour drive from St. Louis, but I strongly suspect the S&W Road Show isn't going to St. Louis.  Would love to meet up with people if I do make it.  I've never called in, but listen every week.

I am driving over from Memphis.  Super-excited about a pre-show meetup, too!

If any other Memphis FOTs would be into carpooling with a weird stranger from the Internet, that might be fun!

Ticket purchased - coming up from Atlanta, most likely driving back immediately after the show.

Any suggestions on a place near Third Man that would work for a pre-show meetup? I looked on Google Maps and it looks like most of the restaurants nearby are either closed on Saturday or close in the early afternoon.

We might want to hit up some locals for suggestions. Nashville's not the most walkable city, sadly.

Asked a Nashville-ite for some suggestions. She gave me the following (notes are hers, I know nothing about these places.)

Walking distance from Third Man
Flyte ("awesome but fancy")
Pour House ("I think it's kinda douchey")

Nearish driving distance from Third Man
ML Rose ("cool")
The Sutler
Melrose Billiards ("super divey...not a place to eat")

Everything is pretty spread out, that's for sure. Pour House was one of the places I was looking at. Hopefully the douchebro quotient is lower when the sun is out. There was a pizza place nearby that sounded like it might work, but when I went to its Facebook page to see what its hours were I discovered it closed a few months ago.

I figure if we can find a place within a mile or two it shouldn't cost too much to get to Third Man if we share cabs and split the fare.

Has anyone been to a show at Third Man? I'm curious how large the room is and what the layout is like so I can figure out if it's "get there as soon as the doors open to have a hope of getting a spot" or if you can roll in whenever. I didn't get to see the Chicago show because my gallbladder was a ticking time bomb. I was in so much pain I couldn't stand for more than a couple of minutes. I was stretched out across a loveseat in the balcony and couldn't see a thing [but I heard it all!].

I think Pour House might be it, too. I think collective FOT awesomeness can outshine that vibe long enough for a meetup. I need to figure out what the parking situation is over in that area of town. I've never been to a show there. Hopefully your body will cooperate better this time.

Anyone need tickets? I bought a pair in a rush and now I can't make it.

Got a ticket for this. Gonna try and make it down with Sean from Louisville. Any others heading down from KY?

We're just over a week away from an evening of mirth, music and mayhem.

AND CAMARADERIE!!!

Door time is 6:30pm. I'm thinking meetup at Pour House at 5pm. That'll give us enough time to meet each other, get rid of the creeps and grab something to eat [for those who choose to do so]. Your comments are not only encouraged...they will also be appreciated.

By the time S&W make it to my neighborhood, I'll be in the NJ/NY neighborhood.  Why, universe?!  Incredibly jealous that I will not be meeting any of you. 

At any rate, I'm from Memphis, but I can give some suggestions since Nashville is one of my more frequent weekend getaway destinations.

FOT meetup in Nashville! 4pm at Pour Hour (http://pourhousenashville.com/). It's a couple of blocks away from Third Man Records so you won't have too walk far to get to the show. If you're on Facebook there's an event page at https://www.facebook.com/events/1575164039426393/ (https://www.facebook.com/events/1575164039426393/).

I hope to see you there!

UPDATE: IT WAS GREAT.

Great show. Met some great people. What we got to see of Nashville was fun.

So now that I've actually met some FoT IRL, I guess I'll come out of the woodwork on the forum and say "Hi" to everyone.

Hi, everyone.

The show was amazing.  Third Man put together a fantastic show.  I love the backyard picnic preshow atmosphere.  Met a lot of good folks with excellent taste in music and comedy.  Laughed a lot.  High-fived Philly Boy Roy.

Well worth the 200-mile drive each way. 

Cheers, folks.

This is a late reply, but I have to add to the chorus.  This show was so great.

And it was great to meet a bunch of FOTs at the show and the, uh, meetup!

PBR nailed me with a Peanut Chew!  I cracked up at Gary's dancing!  I was so pumped up that I drove straight back to Memphis after the show!

SALUT!
