CuriousWildcat, I was in Nashville for a New Year's Conference at the Renaissance Hotel on Commerce a few blocks from where they held the Battle of the Bands before the Music City Bowl. There were a LOT of Kentucky fans at the Renaissance, and me and a group of friends walked down Commerce Street to where the crowd was and got to listen to both bands for a bit. I thought both bands were pretty good, myself.
Oh, and AlwaysSAI, I hope you guys had a good recruitment period! Good luck with this semester's MITs!
