Conversation and Performance: Exit/In: Fifty Years and Counting featuring Dianne Davidson, Jason Ringenberg and Webb Wilder

Owsley Manier and Brugh Reynolds opened the Nashville club Exit/In—named so because the door to the place was in the back—in September 1971. Located at 2208 Elliston Place, on what is now known as the Rock Block, and selected for its proximity to Vanderbilt University, the venue has hosted a wide range of notable acts through the years: Jimmy Buffett, Chuck Berry, Guy Clark, Rodney Crowell, Charlie Daniels, John Hiatt, Waylon Jennings, Billy Joel, Steve Martin, Bill Monroe, John Prine, the Ramones, Red Hot Chili Peppers and R.E.M. have all performed there. In honor of the Exit/In’s recent 50th anniversary, the museum’s Peter Cooper will lead this conversation with regular Exit/In performers Dianne Davidson, Jason Ringenberg and Webb Wilder. Presented in support of the exhibition Outlaws & Armadillos: Country’s Roaring ’70s.
