Here’s a look at the Grand Ole Opy House in our beloved Nashville, TN. Notice anything? It’s utterly destroyed by flood waters, which not only ravaged the Opry House but the entire downtown area and surrounding communities. Over a billion dollars of damage, nearly 20 deaths and a broken spirit are among a few of the devastating side effects caused by the storm that sat above Middle Tennessee for two and a half straight days. To give you an idea of how torrential the downpour was, Nashville received over 25% of its YEARLY rainfall in TWO DAYS. They are calling it the 500 year flood.
Because of this the site has been out of commission for a few days, so, though it is through no fault of our own, we apologize for a lack of content the past few days. But, as you can see, times are hard right now, so please bare with us.
If you can, please visit the Red Cross for details about how you can help, or text REDCROSS to 90999 to make a $10 donation.
That being said, tonight Mercy Lounge is hosting a benefit concert for Nashville where all the profits will be donated to Hands On Nashville.
Go – it should be a good way to get your mind off the devastation as well as way to help out for a good cause.
Keep your head up, Nashville. – Deli Staff
