Music, gig and stuff on my road

Hey there,

I'm working and living in Europe but some friends and me managed to free a month of our time to cross the water and drive a little in the south of the US, in June.

So, my question is, to all of you who are listening good music or other stuff, any kind of it, and maybe making it, you who know the places to be and the people to go, what would you advise us ? We're looking for gig, every kind of size and genre, parties, clubs, art exhibition, performance, anything, from tiny meetings to giant music festival. Rock, Hip-Hop, Country, Metal, Be Bop, Electro, Blues, Hillbilly, Techno, Traditional stuff, modern, contemporary, revival or anything that you guys strangely call indie or alternative stuff, anything including libraries or bookshop, art&craft guys, fountain of beer, family BBQ, rodeo...

From May 30th to June 24th, anywhere on the road between those major points : Nashville (TN), Nouvelle Orléans, Houston (TX), San Antonio (TX), Albuquerque, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, San Francisco.

If you don't have any idea, maybe you have idea of where, on line or IRL, we can find this kind of intel ; where, when we arrive in a city, town, village, we have to go to find something : bar, office, campus, bakery...

Thanks to all of you who will take a second to answer to this !

Oh man I would totally love to help you out, but I am going to be sneaky and make a similar request for the West.

 :lol: It's OK, you're welcome ; LA and Frisco are not exactly on the East, so I'll benefit the same !

Holy commas.

i live near Nashville - may be able to help you out.

There's a pretty great music scene in Knoxville, TN - big college town with a wide array of genre opportunities - in my opinion it's a deeper and more diverse scene than Nashville.

#1 outlet to get in touch with in Knoxville would be the campus radio station at wutkradio.com.

They organize a ton of shows, have a large listener base that actively pursues live music, and can give you a lot of promotion for free.
