Thomas Tillman on Stage at Tootsie's and The Legends Corner
in Nashville
The crowd was enthusiastic during Thomas's
performance's at both The Legend's Corner and the Famous
Tootsie's Orchid Lounge. Both venues have back entrances from
the alley across from the Ryman Auditorium, Home of the
original Grand Ole Opre. Many
"Legends" of Country music graced the stage of both
places from Hank Williams, Willie Nelson, Patsy Cline you name
it and more than likely they were there at one time or another
during their career. It's my understanding that many songs you
have heard on the radio over the years were penned, performed
and even sold at Tootsies. The walls are covered with original
photos of many of country music's most famous. Many have
turned a brownish tint and are now protected by glass to
preserve the history they hold. It was an experience just
walking in the place and having Thomas perform just
added to an already special moment and Thomas performed in great
style. Below you can see the walls at Tootsie's. Some of the
pictures are well over fifty years old.
