Although it is over near Green Hills about 15-20 minutes or about 7 miles. (12-18$ lyft)This is THE location for up close and personal singer songwriter performances. Tickets are a process and require timing and or standing in line. The place seats maybe 100. 20 or so seats are available to those who physically wait in line daily. Go on line and follow the rules and as soon as it the website excepts reservations in the AM jump on. It is a must really to get the NASHville experience. Food is slightly above bar grade but that is not what you are there for.

In the summer it is an awesome place. It has been open from May til September but I think it will be til October this year. You cannot beat seeing an 80"s rock bands like Journey, Def Leppard, Boston, Foreigner or Styx and watching all the pleather suits and fake mullets walk by. Sorry if I'm dating myself but they have all types of acts there from Alan Jackson to Jay-Z.

Getting around

Broadway is about a mile so a Lyft or Uber is best. It’s about a 30 minute walk if desired but in the evenings I would recommend getting a rideshare home. Everything in around five points is walkable literally blocks away. Green Hills area in Bellmead is 15 to 20 minutes. Vanderbilt area in about 10 minutes away by car. The airport is approximately 7 miles east and can take 15 to 20 minutes by car. Up to 45 minutes in rush-hour traffic and heavy travel times however.
