With only six weeks left of second semester, everyone is scrambling to make the most of what time we have left. Thankfully, Music City’s offering dozens of concerts for us to enjoy before we embark on whatever the summer holds for us. The Hustler has gathered the highlights of the best shows to hit Nashville in the coming weeks before we are graced with Soulja Boy’s presence at Rites. I don’t know about you, but I’ll personally be hitting as many of these concerts as I can to ignore the fact that I’m going to be an upperclassman next year.
