New Years at the Clarksville’s Tilted Kilt
Clarksville, TN – Across Clarksville last night Clarksvillians gathered together to say goodbye to 2013 and to welcome in the New Year with style. At the Tilted kilt the atmosphere was light with Austin Anderson providing the musical entertainment.
Like many venues across our city that evening free champagne was poured so that when the clock struck midnight in Tennessee glasses were raised to toast in the new year. Cheers rang out and girlfriends passionately kissed their boyfriends including several of the young ladies who were working that evening.
