We're having a fab weekend here in Nashville with bosom pals Adam and Tracy. We saw a fascinating songwriter session at the Country Music Hall of Fame yesterday featuring Jonathan Singleton. He's a successful songwriter, and told us lots of interesting things about his work, interspersed with some singing and playing of the guitar. Since Dan is a country music fan, he knew the songs by Singleton. It was exciting to hear them performed by the writer. One highlight of the Singleton session was his description of co-writing. He only writes with people, never alone. He says he's more creative and more focused when he has a collaborator. Isn't that neat? I took from it this message: We don't have to do it alone.

Now, we're going to try to catch a show at the famed Bluebird Cafe. We have to get there 1.5 hours early and hope to get in. The Bluebird is extra hip now since being featured on the hit show Nashville, which I now feel compelled to watch.
