Getting "Nashvilled" is a growing phenomenon in the city of Nashville, TN. The phenomenon occurs when a friend, old friend, acquaintance, Facebook friend, former work associate, someone you played a show with one time, or just some person you talked to at a party the night before, PRETENDS not to know who you are. Especially when you see them in a setting that is different from the context in which you met them (i.e. at a bar, while their working at starbucks, mutual friends party, etc...). It's not that they simply forgot who you are or that every self-involved douche in Nashville all of the sudden got dementia, it's that you have nothing to offer them (i.e. record deal) or that your not Hayden Panettiere or Ben Folds.
DISCLAIMER: NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH FACE BLINDNESS, in which a human has mental block to where they cannot remember faces.
Stan and Horace spot each other at Frothy Monkey Coffee shop, Stan looks down immediately and pretends not to see Horace...a few hours later Horace gets up and goes toward Stan.
Horace: Hey Stan, good to see you buddy, you look well.
Stan: (looks up from MacBook Air with a "confused" look): Have we met?
Horace: Yeah bro, we were roommates for like 3 semesters at Belmont.
Stan: (looks at Horace in silence, then at hipster friends who do not wear shoes inside buildings, and shrugs)
Horace: Am I getting nashvilled bro?....
Fast Forward 3 weeks later, Horace spots Stan again, and Stan immediately looks away. Horace, being an actual a Nashville native has nothing to prove and an has an understanding of BASIC SOCIAL ETIQUETTE, immediately walks over to Stan.
Horace: (thinking: surely he remembers me this time, I was the only person he knew at the party last night and we talked for over 3 hours)
Hey Stan, how are you?
Stan: I'm sorry do I know you?
Horace: WTF? am I being nashvilled by you again??....

AKA Nashvegas/Cashville. Nashville is made out to be the country music capital, complete with cowboy hat sporting rednecks and honkytonk saloons. In reality Nashville is a pretty diverse and overall fun place to be. There's plenty of bars around town that play anything but mainstream country. You can catch amazing Bluegrass/Rock/electro and be blown away. It's home to mad bluesman Jack White and his infamous Third Man Records HQ. There are plenty of cool record stores (Grimey's, Phonolux, Great Escape) and smokey coffee shops (Bongo Java, Frothy Monkey and the ultimate indie Cafe Coco). Burgeoning hipster-mecca East Nashville is full of fun and entertainment on any given night. There are several universities such as ivy-leaguey Vanderbilt, Christian/Stoner Belmont, and stuckup prepville Libscomb, to name a few. Nashville is pretty much weed capitol of the south, and has it's fare share of meth-heads as well. Independent movie theatre the Belcourt has it's fair share of Rocky Horror screenings and Hitchcock festivals and the Frist center is a fantastic art museum.
Guy 1: I me this dude in Nashville the other day, and he was pretty tight, not at all your typical cowboy poseur. We smoked a bowl and saw this sick band.
Guy 2: Word!

Home of the late Johnny Cash and birthplace of Arnold Schwarzenegger. A land of milk and honey where the air smells like lollypops and 90% of residents urniate potable, premium flavored coffee.
While walking down peaceful 12th Avenue in Nashville, I encountered a Unicorn sitting on a giant marshmallow. He played me a song on his old guitar and then spent 20 minutes carefully shaving ice to craft a raspberry-flavored snow cone for me.

A medium sized city known for being the home of country music. The people of Nashville are stereotyped to be rednecks whom speak with a twang and listen to Tim McGraw all day, when in fact, it's a diverse city, with much more to do than attending Fan Fare (i.e. good local rock bands, clubs, world class art museum, & theatre).
Nashville isn't what that ass from the Real World made it out to be.

The site of Fort Nashborough on the Cumberland River in north-central Tennessee. The Tennessee state capital and county seat to Davidson County, the 2nd largest in the state with about 570,000 residents. Known as "Music City, USA" it was the former capital to the recording of Country and Western Music, Bluegrass and Southern Gospel Music before the industry went to greener pastures in Branson, Missouri. It is still home to the Grand Ole Opery. It has more churches than almost any other city and is the headquarters to the Southern Baptist Convention, the world's largest Protestant denomination. Its largest industry is actually services and healthcare. Nashville is the home to former President Andrew Jackson, former Vice President Al Gore and actress Reese Witherspoon.
Nashville is the 2nd largest city in Tennessee.

1) Capital city of the state of Tennessee, known as Music City USA, because of the large number of recording studios and performance venues (most famous: the Grand Ol' Opry), specializing mostly in country and western music. 2) The country music business or country music artists in the collective.
Sheryl Crow is establishing herself as a Nashville artist, after a successful rock career.
