We are planning a trip to Nashville at the beginning of November and was just wondering if the bars are open and if they have live music?

Yes! They have live music and the band that was there when we went was the best we've ever seen! Lots of live music all along the strip. Bars are currently closing at 12 but could be later in November as mandates are lifted

We when went last weekend we went to Tootsies. They had live music. As we walked the street there were lots of places open and with music on a Saturday afternoon
