“Imagine No Gun Violence:” Nashville Lennon tribute

One of the best annual music events in Nashville each year has been the “Imagine No Handguns” concert, a celebration of the music of John Lennon and an effort to build awareness about gun violence. The show ran in Nashville from the mid-’90s through 2005, and is now back after a six-year break with the updated “Imagine No Gun Violence” title.
We first caught up with the show in 1999 at the Exit In, where we saw an impressive line-up of performers, including Rodney Crowell and Allison Moorer. It’s always a great show, featuring some of Nashville’s top talents.

The show is at the Mercy Lounge in Nashville on Friday, Dec. 9. Cover is $10, exactly what we paid in 1999.
