Sorry for the lack of updates lately… bad migraine headache has sidelined me from posting.
The Peabody has confirmed that legendary trumpeter Wynton Marsalis will perform at the Corner Bar tonight after his show at GPAC. There will be no cover at the Corner Bar, and there will be drink specials.
MPACT Memphis has announced that tickets have sold out for their Soul of the City Gala at Central Station tonight. However, standing-room-only tickets will go on sale at the party venue at 6:50 tonight. You still get all the benefits of the regular tickets – all you can eat food, all you can drink beer and wine, old school promo photos, Voice of MPACT survey – so come on down.
Suhair Lauck, owner of The Little Tea Shop on Monroe, has announced “Tea Time” from 3-6 PM Monday-Friday beginning Monday March 15. Come down and enjoy coffee, latte, cappucinco, herbal teas, and other assorted goods. The Tea Shop now has free Wi-Fi. Great place for law school students to hang out in the mid-late afternoon!
The Orpheum has announced their 2010-11 Broadway season. Shows will include Wicked, 9 to 5, Dreamgirls, Shrek, Young Frankenstein, The Color Purple, Spamalot, and Beauty and the Beast. Info will be available at orpheum-memphis.com by mid-April, or at the theatre during performances of South Pacific later this month.
“Dish It Out” on April 8 and help the National Foundation for Transplants. When you eat at participating restaurants, a portion of the proceeds for that day will go to NFT. Downtown restaurants who are participating include Circa, Grill 83, Pa Pa Pia’s, and Spindini.
The CA had a feature on the best fried green beans in Memphis. They didn’t mention the tempura fried green beans on the Majestic Grille’s bar menu, but they should have.
That’s all for now. Gotta go pick up a pasta bread bowl from Domino’s.
