March 2020: Sadly the Weiss sign was flattened by a tornado! Thankfully no one was hurt there and the business still exists.
Original 2016 Post:
You've got to buy your liquor somewhere, so why not support the folks at Weiss Liquors in East Nashville who keep their vintage neon sign in such good shape (instead of replacing it with boring back-lit plastic?)
The signage is striking during the day, all boomerangs and chevrons:
And closer towards the parking lot, even more triangles:
But it really comes alive at night!
Check out that dripping corn "likker" and those pointy go go go boomerangs in the video below!
And Go-Go-Go to Weiss' and make sure to tell them that you're there because of the sign!
If places know that their vintage sign is drawing paying customers, then they're more likely to keep 'em! That's what Mod Betty thinks, anyhoo!
