Boot up at the Country Music Hall of Fame

Rhinestones, tassels, boots so pointy they'll make your toes bleed... what more could you expect from Nashville's monument to the music that made it famous? Well, plenty more, as it turns out. The hall of fame contains some seriously impressive artefacts from musical history, from Bill Monroe's Loar f5 mandolin and Johnny Cash's black suit to Webb Pierce's car, pimped up with silver guns for handles and a buffalo horn on the front. Set across several floors, the hall of fame misses few details as it tells the story of 'hillbilly' music, although their enormous Hank Williams Sr tribute is curiously sketchy on his death. Big, bold, and shameless, this is one heck of a celebration of country music - and you wouldn't have it any other way.

I love the Country Music Hall of Fame. Nudie's tailored suits and the old recordings of gospel and blues are my favorite parts. Well, that and the Elvis inspired bacon, banana and peanut butter sandwich I had there once :)
