I'd be hitting the honky tonks of Lower Broadway downtown. They also have tours that take you around to the homes of the stars.
Nashville's one of those cities that's worthy of a far longer than a 1 day stay. Despite being the Music City, it's also quite a Foodie Town.

Forgot to add to this list. Cheap, good Thai food = Tai Phoo Ket. I'm there atleast once a week And Absolutely 100% yes on Arnold's. Wish they would finish up their remodel. I'm there once a week as well, but try to go in quite late right before they close so we don't have to stand in line!
Boy, I wish we could stay for a few days, but we will be at the end of a month-long road trip from the Rockies and will only have the one day as a stop-over.
So I need a neighborhood that has some walk-in music and good food. Hopefully we will be able to get back to Nashville for a longer stay as we are only 6 hours away. So this visit is just a quick introduction to what we can look forward to next time.
Thanks for all the suggestions. (Keep them coming if you have more to share.)

Very timely thread. Looking to take a mini vacation to Nashville at the end of March - planning to stay 3-4 days. Was looking at homeaway and airbnb. Realize that downtown would be ideal, but with the number of kids, it gets kind of expensive (especially when there is this $150 Nashville cleaning fee tacked on top of the short term rental. ).
So, have been looking a bit further afield. A couple that looked pretty good were along a bike greenway east of the city and east of the river. Is this area pretty good?
Another option was potentially camping, but nothing seems close and am a bit unsure about the weather at that time of year.
Never have been to Nashville before. Kids are all country music fans, so we will try and do the Hall of Fame, Opryland, etc. Foodies - not so much. Most meals will probably be eaten back at the rental or takeaway from a Panera type place.
I recommend a NashTrash tour. Bus tour, less than two hours long , live music and comic commentary.
We did the Music Row Confidential which was a good drive along Music Row, and major tourist route of sights.
Takes off from Market near Capitol.
Very enjoyable, affordable and good use of time to see town.
Timely for us, also. We are headed to Nashville for three days in early June. Found a place on vrbo in "The Nations" area.
Looks like we are going to have some fun. Anybody recommend/not recommend The Parthenon? That is on our (tentative) list.
forgot to thank poster for this interesting recommendation. Definitely going to look into it.
