So I went to Nashville, the International Capital of Country Music.

At first it was kinda funny, ya know...redneck shit everywhere...and proud of it. No black fellas, pork ribs and good ole boys. Ha Ha Ha

Well, its not so funny after a few hours.

All I can say now is that if I smell another pork rib or hear one more note of country music, I am gonna puke everywhere...

Please. That's like me going to your country and complaining about Kangaroos, Steve Irwin, and how everybody talks funny. Don't be that daft. Most Nashvillians don't even listen to country, cause we have to make that shit all day long. Next time, go somewhere other than the tourist areas and you might do better.

And you think Memphis is going to be different? Clue in dude and avoid the Rendezvous or Corky's like the plague. There's a big difference between Elvis's Graceland and Hustle and Flow. Beware of the Civil Rights Museum too.
Let me give you a true Nashville insider's tip: You know what we say to all the tourists? "Thank you so much for coming,now leave all your money and go home."

An Australian hippie throwback to the 60's takes a shot at Nashville. Hilarious!!

Pack your kit and head back to NSW.

Heh, that's pretty good. No, seriously. But I'm a native Memphian in Nashville, so I can laugh at that.

You're right about the black folks. The first day I moved here, I got stuck in a traffic jam (little did I know that would be a common occurrence) and when I looked all around me, I saw nothing but white people. It freaked me out. I thought I'd ended up in one of the Dakotas or something.

But you spent all that time on a plane and came to Nashville? I'd talk to a travel agent next time, if I were you.

Nashville doesn't like to be messed with is all. Cause we're the shit. But no hard feelings, and I'll even give you a tip about Memphis. Go to the corner of Market and Madison, and you will find several of the best places to eat in the region. Paulettes, Finos, and Route 66 (down the street) are all quite good and reasonably pork-free.

hey dudes, i must say, the one thing i did like about Nashville was that the people were extremely friendly and hospitable.

I must say that Memphis is kinda cool....writing my next instalment now.

Thanks for the tips.

Chalkie did a six mile circular walkabout in Nashville and could find no other fruits. He'll love Memphis.
