What to do in Tennessee this weekend?


Recommended Posts

My girlfriend and I are making a trip out of town this weekend for her b-day, most likely we will be heading towards southwestern TN (Memphis area). In my past trips to Memphis, its always been with my home-boys and the extent of our trips were Beale Street and Platinum Plus. I need some suggestions, I probably will try to catch a live band if there's a decent one playing. Help me out!

a great man once said that tennessee sucks in the summer time.

and the weather should be perfect for such a thing.

 

maybe split up for an hour (platinum plus) at some point.
