I have no idea how far you'll be from the places I've been...

Graceland was fun, as was downtown Memphis (both daytime sightseeing and nightlife). Also, the "Grand 'ol Opry", wherever the hell that is, went there when I was much younger.

not to be missed

[PostmodernProphet]

went to Neelys, food was quite good, atmosphere funky.......not sure what their restaurant in Memphis is like but the one in Nashville is on a college campus and is staffed by culinary students....

overall the trip was a huge success.....when we got there we heard the GOO was sold out, but our hotel clerk suggested we go over to the onsite ticket office......asked the clerk if there were any agencies that bought blocks of tickets than might have some left over......she made a call and scored us two tickets that were less than 50 feet from the stage......got to hear Charlie Daniels, Brad Paisley and Luke Bryan.....
