5/18/2010 - Photos of my trip through Nashville on my way to NAIA Softball National Tournament in Decatur, AL. Visited the XM Radio studios, as well as wandering down to the river, then had dinner at Jack's Barbecue. My thanks to Storme Warren for helping coordinate this tour, and to Joyce who actually walked me around.

Also some photos from around Decatur, AL, specifically Point Mallard.

This is the on-air booth for Sirius/XM-59, The Highway. One floor down from the production rooms, it has plenty of space in front of the host for small, live performances.

In the gift shop downstairs, there's also a small performance stage where (occasionally) big names will conduct acoustic performances for small groups of fans. When not in use (like during this visit), Gabe, or one of the other gift shop employees will take your photo with a guitar, so you can show all your friends you got to play in Nashville. (This is NOT the large performance studio I mentioned in the previous photo.)

The upper couple of floors in this cylinder house the XM studios and business offices.

At the foot of broadway, the river is still 8-10 feet above normal, two weeks after the flood. You're supposed to be able to walk along that railing without getting your feet wet.
