Memphis In May - Amazing

For anyone who thinks Jerry Lee Lewis is for the old folks, and Hinder is just for the kids, you obviously weren't in Memphis last weekend. The annual Beale Street Music Festival proves that music crosses those age boundaries in a drum beat.

Me and 60,000 of my closest friends crammed Tom Lee Park on the banks of the Mississippi, and slithered our way through the clubs and hot spots along Beale Street. Yep, there were lots of drunken youngsters (and oldsters), lots of smokin blues music, and an unbelievably joyous mix of every type of person you can imagine.

Mark your calendars for the first weekend in May next year. And look for me on at the Rum Boogie Cafe...I ruined my favorite shoes dancing, and wished it would never end.

Best,

Nancy
