I'm going to the Bash, too. We'll be coming up the Natchez Trace to Nashville.
It's been a year since we've been up, but there was construction on I65 north of Nashville. Hopefully, It's about finished...since I don't know a better way.
Hope to see you there,
David

You never know when a construction site will appear on a Nashville road. There are several bridges currently under repair in the city. Beware of these if possible as the TDOT has been very lax in enforcing safety standards for this construction. Just last week a rock fell from a bridge and broke a windshield. They were rebuilding the side boards of the bridge and the contractor had not installed any type of barrier or netting to catch debri. The rock was the size of a baseball.

What are the dates of the bash? I am in Nashville for a few months and would like to check it out, although Sunday is my only day off.
