The Brass Door has announced their music lineup for their alley party this Saturday:
- Forklift will open for Myla Smith at 3:00
- Jeremy Stanfill at 5:00
- The Candy Company at 7:00
- WALRUS at 9:00
- Irish band Big Betsy to close
Uh oh… I have a scheduling conflict. The Arkansas-Alabama game is at 2:30 and I can’t miss my Hogs. Most likely I will watch the game at Max’s Sports Bar then head north to the alley party, which would put me there about 6 I suppose.
The Spaghetti Warehouse saw that I posted a coupon of theirs yesterday. They emailed to tell me it’s Warehouse Wednesday, where you get spaghetti with a choice of meat sauce, tomato sauce or marinara, along with a garden salad and bread for $5. No coupon needed and this is a weekly special.
The Metal Museum will have a free day from 10 to 5 this Saturday, September 24.
Memphis’ own Jerry Lawler was legitimately injured in a spot on WWE Monday Night RAW this week. The new World champion Mark Henry attacked Lawler during an in-ring interview, and performed his signature move, the World’s Strongest Slam, on the King onto the announcer’s table. The table, however, was not a gimmicked table designed to break easily. It was a standard hard table. Neither Lawler nor Henry knew this and went through the spot with full impact. Lawler had to be taken to a hospital after the show. That’s gotta suck, to be 61 years old and get slammed onto a hard table by a 400-pound man.
Breaking news: R.E.M. just announced that they’re calling it quits after 31 years.
Plans for tonight: No idea, but I’ll be out somewhere on this beautiful fall day. Skipping lunch so I can have something good for dinner Downtown tonight.
