First, she posed the question on Tuesday evening (Sept. 10).<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy do no women have bars on Broadway in #Nashville? Luke Bryan, Blake Shelton, Jason Andean, Kidrock, Dierks Bentley, Allen Jackson, Florida Georgia Line, WTF?? Do women not drink?\u201d<\/p>\n

Why do no women have bars on Broadway in #Nashville<\/a>? Luke Bryan, Blake Shelton, Jason Andean, Kidrock, Dierks Bentley, Allen Jackson, Florida Georgia Line, WTF?? Do women not drink?<\/p>\n

\u2014 Sheryl Crow (@SherylCrow) September 10, 2019<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Good question, right? She later explained herself and all the misspellings, blaming Siri.<\/p>\n

\u201cOops. Voice texting. Jason Aldean and Alan Jackson. Nothing against these guys,\u201d she maintained, \u201cI love them all. But where are the women??\u201d<\/p>\n

She\u2019s not wrong. But then again, she certainly has the power to right that wrong. So why is she asking instead of just opening one herself? Her followers gave her all kinds of ideas for names and menu options. And even Maren Morris chimed in with her own plan. \u201cI fully intend to someday open my communion-themed bar in an old church called \u2019My Church,’\u201d Morris wrote to Crow. (I actually found her one<\/a>, and although it\u2019s not on Lower Broadway, it\u2019s on the north end of East Nashville where all the cool kids go anyway.)<\/p>\n

But back to Crow.<\/p>\n

If retweets and replies are a good gauge of real-life interest, then I think Crow should get going. Her original tweet was pretty divided, with half the people giving her their opinion on why tourist bars are a bad investment, and the other half telling her basically that if she builds it, they will come.<\/p>\n

And as for her rhetorical question, \u201cDo women not drink,\u201d the best way to answer that is to let the singing do the talking. Because hell, yes, we drink.<\/p>\n
