Written on The Best of 2010: Memphis music debuts promise big things:

Finally! A litle local promotion - Thanks CA.

Written on Guy, Musselwhite top nominees for Blues Music Awards:

in response to Nighthawk:

Bob, you mentioned a couple of deceased folks and people who hail from a lot of other locations, but the Memphis paper seems to have omitted mentioning Reba Russell, Memphis' own songstress who has cut 8 records independently and toured the world with her band for 20 years. She is nominated for the Koko Taylor Female Traditional Blues singer Award.

RIGHT! What is wrong with you guys? Memphis' own gets ignored? Shame on you.

Written on Listen Up: Never Forgotten offers up messages to remember:

What a bunch of dweebs.

Written on Horn Island still inspires Memphis College of Art students:

Maybe we should send Kriner Cash to art school for a while...

MCA is impressive and one of the great things about Memphis.

Written on Alexis Grace: "I let my state down" with 'Idol' performance:

Well, I voted for Alexis & Lil & Megan... I actually thought the rendition of 'Jolene' was really good. I watched Dolly Parton on the Porter Wagner show on channel 5 many years ago & I remember her as a young woman too. (I really am showing my age!) But her 2cd chance performance was weak, I think she was just too sensitive to her position and prior success. Getting disapproval after such raves just through her for a loop. Alexis was really fine with the blues, the soul, and I think she could do pop & rock great too. The country thing just isn't hers and I am sorry she came so close & got cut over it. I could not argue with the judges' decision though, she had not the confidence and follow-through on her second chance... I know it was tough, but they are looking for a real trooper, which is the main reason I spent a vote on Megan too. Still, I think she was eliminated too early and I am sorry she hadn't more support.

Written on Best Bets: Road trip restaurants:

I can't believe you did not mention Madidi in Clarksdale, MS.
Morgan Freeman's Madidi resaurant is a trip worth taking...
