LET’S HEAD WEST

Today, I wanted to bring you over to my side of town and share some of the best spots in The Nations. This is your spot for great local beer, happy hours, meaningful shopping, and delish dining.

THIS WEEKEND

LOCALS ONLY

• If I-24 is part of your daily commute, keep this one on your radar: plans for new express lanes between Nashville and Murfreesboro just took a major step forward. But if you’re looking to skip the traffic in the new lanes, it’ll cost you.

• Nashville SC has been kickin’ balls and kickin’ ass. The team is currently sitting first in both the Eastern Conference and the overall MLS standings with a 13-2-4 record. The Boys in Gold have been especially dominant at home and have lost just twice in league play all season. Messi who?
