Tue update: WMPD benefit, MIFA store, student rush

The Hard Rock Cafe on Beale is hosting a benefit concert Saturday at 9 PM for the families of the fallen West Memphis police officers involved in last month’s shootout. Zach Myers of Shinedown will host, with intimiate acoustic performances by Fairwell, Sore Eyes, Prosevere, and Surrender the Fall. Tickets are $10.

The MIFA Store on Vance tweeted that all adult pants are buy one, get one free today and tomorrow. I’ve been told by the people who run the store that they also have tube tops for sale.

Chicago starts today at The Orpheum. Tomorrow is student rush night – students can bring their ID and see the show, space permitting, for only $20.

Memphis Beat watch parties at South of Beale and Calhoun’s tonight… I have trivia at the Saucer though, so will be late if I make it at all to either party.  Off to lunch… thinking maybe Fazoli’s today.
