Our friend Misty wants to raise $1000 for St. Jude, and as of the time Air Traffic Mike made <a href=\"http:\/\/memphismikes.blogspot.com\/2013\/06\/we-need-to-get-misty-over-top.html\">his blog post<\/a> about Misty, she was $167 short. Anyone want to help her get the rest of the way there?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.memphisflyer.com\/HungryMemphis\/archives\/2013\/06\/10\/front-st-deli-to-reopen\">The Front Street Deli will reopen soon.<\/a> It has been closed since owner Lee Busby died. Lance Silkes who does the Tastin&#8217; Round Town tours plans to reopen the deli. Menu will be familiar, although Lance plans to add a few personal touches.<\/p>\n<p>A French creperie will be opening in the spot that used to be Neely&#8217;s BBQ at 670 Jefferson. The Hungry Memphis blog reports that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.memphisflyer.com\/HungryMemphis\/archives\/2013\/06\/11\/monsieur-demarcus-french-crperie-opening-in-neelys-downtown-site\">Monsieur Demarcus French Creperie will open in August<\/a>. The chef hopes to achieve the same authentic French ambience that he had at his restaurant in Bartlett.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.orpheum-memphis.com\/events\/detail\/the-ultimate-thriller\">The Ultimate Thriller<\/a>, said to be &#8220;the&#8221; ultimate Michael Jackson tribute, is coming to the Orpheum Saturday, July 27. Tickets will be on sale soon.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve thought about trying out to be a Grizz Girl, choreographer Tamara Moore is holding some <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nba.com\/grizzlies\/news\/grizz-girls-prep-class-girl-play-1314\">audition prep classes<\/a>. Even if you have no interest in trying out, you can sign up for the classes and work out like the Grizz Girls do. A good workout will have you looking great in a tube top.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s official &#8211; Memphis will host the American Athletic Conference tournament next year. It will be the second weekend of March at the FedExForum. Home court advantage for the Tigers!<\/p>\n<p>Plans for tonight: I&#8217;ll lead off at the Saucer, then poker at Blind Bear at 8. I&#8217;ll probably have to tell the &#8220;what happened Saturday night&#8221; story a few times for people returning from trips out of town. Came in second on Sunday and hopefully I will improve by one spot tonight!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;d like to join my friend Air Traffic Mike in asking for help for a St. Jude Hero.
