When in Memphis...


Why does beer in Memphis taste so much better?


I love Memphis. Anyone that has ever talked to me about their favorite cities knows this. I can't think of a single better city that I've visited. Chicago is a close second followed by Nashville in a distant third. My first visit to Memphis came with my fraternity a few years ago and this weekend marked my emphatical return. My favorite bar on Beale Street is Silky O'Sullivan's. It's a dueling piano bar playing live requests of all your favorite tunes. I know they probably get a request for Mark Cohn's "Walking in Memphis" at least five times a night, but I had to do it. I mean how could you not. Anyway, I think I made a believer out of the guys for the most part. Maybe we could make a yearly trip with just the guys to go down for a weekend. I don't know if my body can handle more than a whole weekend.

I just hope Stephen had as good of a time as I did. After all, it was his bachelor party. Check out some more photos from the weekend here.
