	TN Encyclopedia: NASHVILLE PREDATORS
		Professional ice hockey has been played in Nashville since the early 1960s, when the Nashville Dixie Flyers were members of the East Coast Hockey League (ECHL), a minor league association.
		Craig Leipold is Chairman of the Nashville Predators.
		The team's attendance rate, which has averaged 94 percent of capacity the first three seasons, is among the league's leaders and indicates that the franchise has begun its history with a firm foundation for future success.

	SI.com - Hockey - Week at a Glance: Precocious Preds making playoff push - Thursday April 24, 2003 01:19 AM
		Nashville's 5-4 overtime win against Chicago on Saturday pushed the Predators over the.500 mark for the first time since early in their second season.

	Nashville Municipal Auditorium - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Nashville Municipal Auditorium (informally known locally as Municipal Auditorium or simply Municipal) was the primary indoor sports and concert venue in Nashville, Tennessee from the time of its completion in 1962 until the completion of Nashville Arena (now Gaylord Entertainment Center) in 1996.
		The construction was the object of great curiosity in the Nashville area, in part because it involved the use of a tower crane; many were surprised to learn that this was to be dismantled and not serve as part of the permanent structure's roof support.
		In September 2005, the Nashville Municipal Auditorium was used as the national staging area for donations of medical supplies and equipment being gathered to benefit the victims of Hurricane Katrina.

	dixiechicks
		For the past three years, numerous Dixie Chicks defenders have praised their courage in exercising what is supposed to be the time-honoured American tradition of free speech.
		The Dixie Chicks themselves have not shied away from difficult topics, whether in satirizing the bland corporate shlock often produced in Nashville (Long Time Gone) or in addressing themes of war and violence with tunes such as "Travellin' Soldier," "Goodbye Earl," and numerous similar songs on their new album.
		Billboard reported in July 2003, "The Dixie Chicks are one of the hottest acts going, but one of their lasting contributions to the music industry may well be contained in a record of a different sort: the Congressional Record.

	the Dixie Flyers Reviews
		Although it’s been a while since we’ve been served with some new music by The Dixie Flyers, the title of this new album is confirmation that nothing has changedThe Dixie Flyers are still Right On Track (the vinyl kind, that is).
		Baumbach (and the ‘Flyers’, have always been able to incorporate traditional country tunes into their bluegrass repertoire, and on this outing we get three Merle Haggard tunes, Rainbow Stew, Ramblin’ Fever and a particularly right-on version of The Way It Was In ’51.
		Nashville TN "The Dixie Flyers are back to fill a big void in the Canadian bluegrass music scene with their brand new CD, "Right On Track".The powerful Dixie Flyers sound is intact with the always essential ingredient...FUN.Long overdue, but worth the wait!"

	Nashville Dixie Flyers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Nashville Dixie Flyers were a professional minor league ice hockey team in Nashville, Tennessee.
		The Flyers' purple-and-gold sweaters were perhaps things of beauty, but looked far more like those for a Junior or Senior team than those of a professional squad, at least during the early years.
		The ice sheet at the Municipal Auditorium was undersized, but not nearly as much as the one at the Civic Coliseum in Knoxville which was genuinely minuscule and must have reminded the players, all of whom were of Canadian extraction, of playing on the frozen ponds of their boyhoods.

		When the financial arrangements were made and the EHL requirements met, the Dixie Flyers were born.
		The new Flyer coach was not unfamiliar to Nashville.
		Nashville finished a respectable third (six teams by then) in the division (42-23-7), but was eliminated from the playoffs in the first round to Charlotte, three games to one.

	Sens set record pace
		As he walked over to shake the hand of Flyers coach Bill Barber, Martin looked sadder than he did when the Senators were swept by the Maple Leafs last spring.
		An ominous sign was his giveaway to Simon Gagne, in the first minute of the game, that delivered the Flyers a good scoring chance...
		Not only did Ottawa/Hawkesbury lad Danny McGillis end the Flyers' scoring and power-play droughts, he almost ended Magnus Arvedson's night with a thundering hit moments later -- right around the same area Arvie left a chunk of his intestine a couple of years ago.

	Nashville Memories
		The Shrine Circus in the Coliseum Building at the Fairgrounds, the Dixie Flyers in the Municipal Auditorium, the Nashville Vols at Sulphur Dell with the steep banks in the outfields and Coach Larry Gilbert pointing his finger to the high screen in right field for Charlie Workman or Tookie Gilbert to hit one out.
		In the 50's in West Nashville it was practically a rite of passage for a young man to have his first beer at King's Inn (where no one ever asked for an id) at the corner of West End and Woodmont Blvd. You could tip Ace on White Bridge Road and keep the mug.
		Nashville’s Sulphur Dell ballpark, one of the most interesting and charismatic ballparks in all of baseball history with its sloping outfield and short right field fence, was razed in 1963.

	Jim Dickinson interview
		We [The Dixie Flyers] had just been recording with someone who was, er, not quite as impressive and I thought to myself "What would I give to be working on music like this?" Anyway, within two years, I was.
		The Dixie Flyers were supposed to record with Dylan when we were down in Miami in 1970.
		Nashville is only two hundred miles away but it's so different that it might as well be on the other side of the earth.

	Hillman Odyssey: Boggy Creek V: Performer Profiles I
		The Dixie Flyers are not from the Southern United States.
		The Dixie Flyers are extremely devoted to the roots of traditional Bluegrass, but rather than allowing this to be an inhibiting factor, they've made the investigation of traditional music something that enriches their own sound and style.
		This is what makes the Dixie Flyers a truly professional Bluegrass group that through the past five years have taken several top awards in the Bluegrass field.

		The only down side to the flyer efforts is that there is no magic to it.
		me and my guy passed out flyers mon and tues(not all day...) probably 500-750 flyers i had about 12 callsso far and picked up 4 new yards rest were for hedges or landscaping.
		same for flyers if i pay 50 worth of flyers a week and pick up a couple yards my advertising efforts are paid for of course flyers are different because there is labor involved but if you are solo and have nothing to do why not.

		Jimmy heard The Dixie Flyers on Jerry Jeff Walker's "Being Free" album, and asked Michael to play on his first ABC Dunhill album.

	6abc.com: Dixie Chicks Cancel Shows
		NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - August 8, 2006 - Several concerts on the Dixie Chicks' "Accidents and Accusations" tour have been canceled after slow ticket sales, but the group says it has replaced them with other dates.
		The trio released a statement last week attributing the changes to attempts to "accommodate demand" and said more dates might be added next year.
		Many country fans criticized the band after lead singer Natalie Maines told a London audience in 2003 on the eve of war in Iraq that the trio was "ashamed" President Bush was from their home state of Texas.

	PCP : Jim Dickinson
		After fronting several local bands, he was a founding member of the Dixie Flyers, who went on to be the house band at Muscle Shoals studios in Alabama in the early '70s, backing artists like Aretha Franklin, Ronnie Milsap, Claudia Lennear, and Maria Muldaur.
		Dickinson's first solo album, released in 1972 on Atlantic (who employed The Dixie Flyers), was entitled Dixie Fried, and has become a cult classic, one of the most endearingly off-center records in many fans' collections.
		I tried to repeat the form of Dixie Fried when I was doing this record, and there's nothing comparable to "O How She Dances," it's one of a kind.

		Deejays urged listeners to cut up their Dixie Chicks CDs and send them to Sony Music Corp. They set up Dixie Chicks garbage disposal cans and held rallies at which Dixie Chick albums were smashed by tractors.

	briarpatch magazine » Homes not Bombs “Dixie-Chicked” at Toronto Film Festival
		The Dixie Chicks — Maines, Martie Maguire and Emily Robison – immediately became punching bags for Fox News commentators and the likes of those who burned Beatles albums when John Lennon’s comments about Jesus sparked a mid-60s firestorm.
		At Senate hearings July 8, Cumulus Media – which owns some 270 radio stations–was the latest to be caught up in the backlash over the power that large radio conglomerates hold to curb free speech and to punish those with whom it disagrees politically.
		In 2004, the Dixie Chicks funded a website through Rock the Vote called “Chicks Rock, Chicks Vote” with the goal of registering 100,000 voters — within a month of its existence, the number of people registered was around 150,000.

	Jimmy Buffet Tour
		Jimmy Buffett arrived in Nashville in 1969 prepared to embark on a recording career.
		A weekend drive down the overseas highway (A1A) landed Jimmy in the town that would prove to be the biggest influence in his musical career, the town that would provide the catalyst for "Margaritaville," the town that continues to play a large role in his life, Key West.
		Released in 1973, A White Sport Coat and Pink Crustacean helped to establish him, and it was a reputation he was able to enhance with his next album, Living and Dying in 3/4 Time, which received good reviews, and contained the single "Come Monday".

		I didn't know he had moved to Nashville after that, but I assume he was still planning to work in the recording studios there.

	Jerry Wexler - Salon
		After the break with Hall, in a move reminiscent of King Lear, Wexler moved to Florida, leaving his former company to be run by others and devoting himself to the full-time creation of records.
		With Dr. John he created "Gumbo," a brilliant pastiche of antique New Orleans funk, and during Atlantic's short-lived Nashville operation, he recorded "Phases and Stages" with Willie Nelson, a musical makeover that presaged Nelson's multiplatinum records with Columbia.
		But the forces of entropy that had caused Wexler to leave Memphis and Muscle Shoals came into play in Miami: Wexler and his wife, Shirley, divorced in 1972, and the fragmented Dixie Flyers joined Kris Kristofferson.
