ALSO | For Your Consideration | Memphis in May

I realize this is during the school year, Babycans, but I'm throwing it out there anyway.




To the world, Memphis means great music. Music lovers from around the globe gather at the Beale Street Music Festival to celebrate this vital heritage, this deep river of sound.

Three magical days. Four big stages. Thirty-three acres overlooking the Mighty Mississippi, right on the heels of historic Beale Street. More than sixty top artists. One outrageous party.

Blues, rock, gospel, R&B, alternative, and soul a spine-tingling musical variety guaranteed to shake your soul. With a growing fan base and worldwide media coverage, this stellar event sells out annually.


Three Day pass through April 30th only $63.50.
Once it's May the deal goes away!

Daily Ticket in Advance: $27.50

Daily Ticket - Day of Event: $33.00




The lineup for 2009 isn't available yet; check out previous years HERE.

I know what you're thinking: "Sounds great, Stoner, but what about accommodations? We're already committed to the Deep Blues Fest. We can't blow all our dough on Memphis hotels!"

Don't worry, man. During our recon trip to Memphis last summer, the Marquis made a connection HERE.

Or -- if the Marquis' charm should be at low ebb --



-- there's always HERE.

Think it over.

It's practically worth the trip just to eat at this joint:
