For those of you who were fans of Corey Osborn, the guitarist who played BB King’s and other venues who recently died in a car wreck at a very young age, there will be a tribute show tonight at the Midtown Blue Monkey. Rusty Lemmon, Kirk Smithart, and others will be there to honor their friend. Music should start around 10. This is the MIDTOWN Monkey, not the Downtown one.
You can now use your mobile phone to donate to the Salvation Army’s holiday drive. Just text RING to the phone number 90999. A message will come back asking you to confirm your $5 donation to the Salvation Army. Reply with YES and a $5 donation will be added as a separate, tax-deductible line to your phone bill.
Big Foot Lodge will be on Man vs. Food on the Travel Channel at 9 PM Wednesday, December 3. Host Adam will take on the 4 lb. Sasquatch burger that is free if you can finish it in under an hour. Be sure to set your Tivo or DVR to record it.
Also, Big Foot will offer all you can eat spaghetti this Friday night, December 5. It comes with your choice of meat sauce or marinara. Big Foot is one of the restaurants helping runners carb up for the marathon on Saturday. If you’re on the Downtown Memphis Core group on Facebook, I started a discussion in the forum where you can post other places runners can go Friday night to carb up.
The Downtown Memphis Core group already has over 40 members, and there are several questions and discussions that have been posted. If you’re on Facebook and love the Downtown Memphis Core, feel free to join. If you have questions about how to join, shoot me an e-mail.
Probably back later with more. Gotta clear out 39 e-mails in my Inbox first though. Good news is, most of them are notifications that people bought stuff from my stores. And someone bought me a beer! Yay! Thank you!
