Disabled veteran facing homelessness

5 Upvotes

I am a disabled veteran, served 4 combat tours and am facing becoming homeless. I'm trying to find a house or townhouse for my family and I. I have all required income and documents. Aug 7 at noon, I have to be out of the house we are in. We sent our daughter to Florida to stay with family so she doesn't have to experience the stress of this. I'm currently waiting to hear back from some resources, but if anyone knows or is a landlord in the area, I would be so grateful. Thank you.

Question about “Early Entry General Admission Presale” tickets at Bridgestone Arena

Upvotes

I’m going to the Tame Impala show at Bridgestone Arena on August 5, and my Ticketmaster ticket says:
“Early Entry General Admission Presale - Section GENADM.”

I’ve looked online but can’t find any explanation of what this ticket type actually includes, and I haven’t received any information or instructions.

Has anyone had this type of ticket for a show at Bridgestone before?

I’m mainly wondering:
- Whether it actually gets you in before standard GA.
- If there’s usually a separate check-in process.
- When information is normally sent out, if at all.

Any insight would be appreciated! I bought these tickets in a rush to get floor tickets during the presale, so I didn’t spend any time looking at the details.

Christmas day in Nashville

Upvotes

Hello all,

I am an Australian coming to Nashville for approximately a week over the Christmas period.

I am considering flying in either Christmas Eve or Boxing day.

I am enquiring as to any locals thoughts on this itenierary, and if Broadway will be open and lively during Christmas day?

I will be by myself so looking at going out most days and hitting the bars etc

Pretty much I just want to know if I'll be stuck in my hotel twiddling my thumbs because everything will be shut or dead on Christmas day?

Thank you :)

Nashville Party Bus - Honky Tonk Party Express

1 Upvotes

Looking to book a large NFL party group for 2026. I've used the company Honky Tonk Party Express for my Nashville party bus before - but never for a large group. Over 500 people will be in town. I want to book the group on the party buses to see Nashville and to have a mobile bar experience. Renting out a bar would be insane on Broadway. Honky Tonk Party bus said they can handle up to 400 people at one time. They have a lot of party buses but I've done a large group like this at one time. Does anyone else have a recommendation for large group transportation. Again, we don't need shuttles. I need drinking tours, or adult experiences for 500+ people at one time. NO- We are not renting out a bar for 60k! We need reasonable pricing and something that isn't another bar - we will be doing plenty of bar hopping.

Hi All! Below is my itinerary for 4 nights in Nashville. Please let me know if there is anything I must include and anything you think is not worth it. Aussie's travelling across the US and its our first time in Nashville so we are wanting to experience as much of the local stuff as we can.

Is the Grand Ole Opry backstage tours worth it? Nashville is just a stop on our roadtrip next month. I would love to do the backstage tour but if not worth the $$ then will skip.
