Rhinestones, cowboy boots, belt buckles and the best honky tonks on the planet. Kevin finds out why Nashville is the “Music City.” The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum gives the family a chance to walk down memory lane with the great music and musicians of yesterday and today. Johnny Cash, Patsy Cline, Willie Nelson and many more musical legends have performed at Ryman Auditorium, the “Mother Church” of country music.
