If you’ve watched the show ‘Nashville’ (first on ABC, then picked up by CMT) you’ve heard of the Bluebird Cafe. It’s a real place and a place where intimate shows are still held and songwriters still perform. Since being on the show, it has gained popularity and reservations are hard to come by. There are, however, a number of first come/first serve seats available for the first 10-15 people. Doors opened at 5:30 and we were told to get there at least an hour before to secure entry.
