After a long week of chaotic events and whiskey, I decided to go for a low-key option last night. At least that’s what I thought I was doing. One of the things that comes along with relaxing is the potential to end up somewhere unexpected. It’s where the whole “go with the flow” concept comes from I think. Anyway, there were definitely some currents flowing last night and I got ride along in the slipstream. Continue reading Pirate Bar Hustle
This is a great place to live because Memphis almost always has something going on during the weekends. But sometimes it’s a regular weeknight and you don’t feel like dealing with the bells and whistles, right? I’ve compiled a list of the things I like to do (or want to do) on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. This list is far from complete. I have many more corners of the city to explore in the coming months. These are just some the pit stops I find most interesting.
After last weekend’s wildness, it’s understandable if you want to take it easy for the next few days. However, July 4th is around the corner and there will be plenty of private parties for kicking back. June has been a hot month for happenings and I don’t plan to quit now. Not everything has to be turned up to 11, so if you’re tired take a look and choose one of the less intense activities for this weekend.
It was a hectic weekend, to be sure. Once all the dust settles, I think good times were had all around. I heard that the Rosanne Cash show @ Levitt Shell pulled a record-breaking turnout. I also received more than one invite to the new High Cotton Brewing Taproom that opened Saturday. Apparently the Dead Soldiers capped off the festivities. I was sorry to miss it, but I know the party must go on.
First, I want to make sure no one got washed away during the flash floods that hit around 6PM last night. Still here? Good. 😉 That freakishly heavy rain was a hidden blessing for the evening as a whole. The the temperature plummeted to a comfortable 70ish degrees and the persistent rain was a mere inconvenience. Of course, I did not attend the Overton Square event in the Tower Courtyard, so my perspective might be a little skewed.
I ventured east for the best location outside the parkways – the Broad Arts District. Continue reading Jazz Night @ The Cove
I am glad the rain held off until after dark yesterday. Not only did it make for a great day to be out and about, but the overnight thunderstorm did NOT knock out my power (for once). So today I’m going to start what I hope to be a regular Monday installment – Weeknight Wheelin’. … *blink* … or maybe something less lame.
Aaaanyway… here are some things happening this week. Continue reading Must Be The Moon – !!!
