The Little Man

A couple weeks ago a great little Nashville art & wine bar called Rumours closed its doors after 7 years of business.  Being only a 5-month resident of Nashville, you would think this wouldn't affect me much (yet) but alas, the closing of any small business is always a sad story to me.  This one, however, does have a personal affect on me.

Rumours South (in 12South) was the first place I met up with my first Nashville friend (and soul sista) Jill for happy hour.  Jill and I actually met at a Hokie game watching, and became fast friends.  She suggested Rumours South as our first post-game watching meet up and it didn't disappoint.

Word on the skreet is they're closing for expansion in 12 South.  A high-rise of condos.  Ugh.

Dear Nashville, 
DON'T turn into downtown Richmond.  Take it from me, Condos are cool for about a year.  Then, they're impossible to sell.  (Even if you put them in something like the most iconic Department Store of the South...)
Thanks,
Your loyal Advice-giver


So long, Rumours.  Thanks for a great couple months of fancy happy hours!
