I saw an announcement on Twitter this morning that the Memphis holiday parade will be Saturday, December 5 this year. Darn, I’d kinda hoped they’d keep it on the Friday after Thanksgiving, but I guess too many people had to miss it last year because they were out of town. At least they’re still keeping it in the South Main Arts District, which I think is a much more family-friendly location than Beale Street.
Unusual event happening from 2-5 before the event: Rock’n’Romp in the former Jay Etkin gallery, with Snowglobe performing. Here’s why it’s unusual – adults must have a child with them to get in. $5 donation suggested to cover free beer. Free beer? Does anyone have a kid I can borrow for a few hours?

Check back – I have one more post in Drafts, summarizing all the stuff that’s happening Downtown tomorrow.
