Hey friends, our favorite hometown venue, EXIT/IN, needs help.This venue is extremely important to us. Not only has it raised us as local Nashvillians falling in love with going to incredible shows, it has done nothing but support us and our dreams of creating rock ’n roll that makes a difference.

Remember that time we performed (and recorded) an entire show of Queen covers?  And then when we had the release show for it, Jack Black(and the rest of Tenacious D) joined us on stage for Bohemian Rhapsody? Yeah, that was at Exit/In. 

Remember that time they let us take over the venue for a release show, install dystopian decor, and spray paint our old touring machine (RIP Skyhammer) and make it look as if it was on fire in front of the building?

 Remember that time in 2016 when they re-enacted the ending from Goonies and ripped up the contract to sell the business to a huge corporation known for buying local venues across the world? (Ok, that might not be how it happened exactly, but we like to think so.)

And THEN they held a huge street festival in celebration and had us perform.

We have so many more great memories and Proto-moments but we have no time/space to list.  And these are just OUR stories.  Imagine how many more there are for so many people.  

If you’re able to donate, that’s great.  If not, please at least spread the word.  Exit/In is currently celebrating its 50th year, so please let’s try to have 50 more for future artists and fans.

WE. ARE. PARAMORE. 5/10/17 - Exit/In Nashville, TN

[girlwiththedragontalestattoo]

I never make personal posts on here anymore but last Wednesday was an amazing experience and a roller coaster of emotions so here we go. Somehow the stars aligned and I found myself at Paramore’s secret show at Exit In. I had been refreshing that link for ticket information for 5 days and when they finally updated it at 5am the morning of, I was devastated to find out you could only get tickets in person that morning at 9am, and I had to be at work before then. Long story short, I got to work and my boss told me to just go and come back after I got them! She said I couldn’t miss that opportunity(she’s a Paramore fan too!) So I hauled ass downtown(trying hard to not happy cry the whole way) and managed to make it before they ran out! Paramore has been my favorite musical entity for over 10 years, and every opportunity I’ve had to see them live has been incredible, but this intimate secret hometown show is definitely the most special to me. I feel very privileged to have a favorite band who still puts out amazing music 10+ years later and is so giving and appreciative towards their fanbase. It had been 4 years without new music, and 2 years since I had seen them live, but it was well worth the wait! They’re finally back and better than ever! Its almost been a week but I don’t think I’ll ever be over it😁
