Party Street in Music City

Fifteen thousand attended the Isagenix convention in Nashville, and we met them all on Broadway street.  With a smile on their face and a plastic cup in their hands, it was clear that they are anticipating fun, and had plenty of energy to make sure they get it.  It was afternoon,  yet music  already poured onto the sidewalk from the many honky tonks that line the street.  Strolling to the captivating rhythms, it didn't take us long to join the general mood.  Often, enthusiastic singing overpowered the background music.  It emanated from party bicycles cruising the street.  These contraptions, allows a group of a dozen or so (usually women), to pedal a stocked bar while singing, cheering, and hooting.  Louder music still, accompanies the open-decked buses which blast the beat to ecstatic dancers on board.  Once inside the famous Legends Corner, the sound and energy level climbed even higher.  The band may not have been the best, but good enough to fill the dance floor, and convert Adi and I into country music fans.  We tried our Danzon steps, then we tried our Salsa moves, neither quite worked, but soon we got into the groove, and had great time.

I have been to the Vegas strip, and I have been to Memphis' Beale street, but the experience on Nashville's Broadway, topped them both.
