In Short
No trip to Nashville is complete without a visit to this museum. The stunning building brings country music center stage with an impressive mix of technology and artifacts. Keep an eye out for Hank Williams' ivory suit stitched with musical notes, Roger Miller's 11 Grammys and Trisha Yearwood's application for a tour guide position at the original museum. Tour packages are also available and include a guided walk through RCA Studio B or Ryman Auditorium.

This is really not a good use of your money. Over $30 to walk around a museum is totally out of touch with reality. If you have kids, you're well up over $100, let alone of you check out the RCA studio and buy anything. The CMHOF needs a reality check. Unless all they want to visit the place is old rich people with way too much time on their hands.

It is difficult to run a non-profit organization and I congratulate the people of the museum who are dedicated and knowledgeable. Every nook and cranny is worth taking the time to examine for the history and interesting facts and accomplishments presented. You can even view the inner workings as some of the office areas, like the archives, have glass walls so you can see works in progress. Our group recognized 2 stars walking around looking while there! George Hamilton IV was showing a friend around; And Tom T. Hall was preparing for a show later in the month! The best part was the live music. Real working songwriters sing the hits they've made for others! Fantastic! We heard Craig Wiseman sing "Live Like You Were Dying", a #1 song for Tim McGraw. We got to ask him questions too! Allow a leisurely half day for this musem and lunch in the great foyer.

Bad part of town? It's a great part of town! Hanging out in the greenway between the CMHOF and the hotel and the new symphony hall before a Guy Clark show I thought...wow...Nashville is great! Anyway, I haven't toured the museum yet (I'm awful) but what I have had is a wonderful experience with the staff at the CMHOF, well, a couple of times. Buying tickets to things like the Guy Clark Artist-In-Residence shows and when they tried to find my lost glasses there...and...the acoustics in the small theatre are spectacular. And if their artist-in-residence choices are an indication of things to come...I just think they're wonderful and we are lucky to have them (staff) in Nashville. Tourists who are that picky really should be picky elsewhere. We LOVE tourists who LOVE Nashville like we do.
