What a cute town!!!
We had a day off and then two days of only evening shows which gave us plenty of time to wander around, enjoy the beautiful weather and get to see everything in Knoxville (which really only took maybe one afternoon, but whatever).
Our first day out and about we walked right around the World's Fair Park which was right across the street from our hotel.
The weather was perfect so we walked down to Market Square and had lunch at this fantastic place called The Tomato Head. If you are ever in Knoxville I highly recommend you go there. I went once a day. There were cute stores lining the square so we did some browsing.
That night Paul and I went out to dinner at Oodles and afterwards went to the Preservation Pub where they were having 1/2 price bottles of wine. Shortly thereafter we stumbled home.
The theatre we performed at was called the Tennesse Theatre and was really nice. I couldn't get the picture from center stage to come out very well, but here;s the best one I got:
The marquis was unbelievable and since we were there for what felt like such a long time I totally forgot to get a pic of it. Thank goodness for Google:
After our last show Paul, Laura and I headed over to Calhoun's for a delicious rib dinner. I was the only one who got ribs, which are claimed to be the best in the USA, and they were phenomenal. I can't believe I didn't used to like ribs. Well, we all had a beer, but Paul trumped us all with his ENORMOUS mug of ale
we were pretty jealous...just kidding.
After Knoxville we headed to Ashland, KY! I called Marty, the artistic director of Jenny Wiley, and invited him to the show! I know that by doing so I was signing up for a whole lotta ridicule this summer (i mean, I'm an egg), but it was well worth it. We grabbed a quick bite to eat after the show and then we got right back on that big rockstar bus of ours and made our way to Indianapolis, IN...
