Mon update: Couple of Saturday events, couple of Cinco de Mayo specials, fake Prince Harry

Before I head out to Cinco de Mayo, I wanted to do a quick post about a couple of events that are happening this coming Saturday, May 10.

There will be a firefighter appreciation cookout to celebrate our local firefighters that day from 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM. It will be at the South Main fire station, at the corner of Butler. It will be a family-friendly event. Of course, you could always come to South Main a little early and hit the Memphis Farmers Market first.

Later that day, there will be a Tunes for Tupelo tornado relief concert at the Green Beetle. Live music acts will include Bryan Hayes and the Retrievers, Rice Drewry, Chelsea Chandler, The Sojourners, and Shelley Brown. A $10 donation is suggested, with $7 of that going to CREATE, Northeast Mississippi’s community foundation, to help victims of last week’s tornadoes in Tupelo, Mississippi.

All right, on my way out for Cinco de Mayo. I haven’t been paying real close attention but I have heard about two Downtown specials: Silly Goose will have $3 margaritas, $5 tacos, and $7 Mexican flatbread pizza. Local will have $2 margaritas and $2 tacos. As for me, I’m going to lead off at Bardog for Monday with Melissa, Possibly a margarita at the Goose later.
