Re: “River Arts Fest Preview Party”
Is there a dress code for this event?
Re: “Sip Around the World Wine Tasting”
The Sip Around the World is my favorite event of the year but I am disappointed in the list of wineries participating this year as well as last year. There used to be more well known wineries participating in the past so I wonder why more have chosen not to be a part of this worthy charity event. Unless this changes I will probably not attend in the future.
Re: “Memphis”
Interestingly, "Hockadoo" is, whether intentional and knowingly or not, an equivalent of sorts to Daddy-O Dewey's own incessantly uttered nonsense expletive, "Dee-gaw!"
Re: “Hayes Carll”
Hayes always puts on a great show.
Re: “Tawnee Cowan Fund-raiser”
The fundraiser was not to raise money for her leukemia. It was to raise money for the foundation and all those affected by the illness. Tawnee had promised to donate 100% of the money to the foundation. People donated food, drinks, frames and cost of materials. In an art gallery such as this people pay the artist and then the artist pay back 30% or 100% or whatever the agreed amount back to the organization. Tawnee took the money and left didn't give back one cent.
Re: “Tawnee Cowan Fund-raiser”
Tawnee stole all the fundraiser money from the Wing's Cancer Foundation and that summer later did the same thing to Painted Planet and took it a step further and tried to destroy the business and the personal relationships within that network. The press was contacted to reveal who Tawnee Cowan and that's when apparently Tawnee fled to Florida to do the same thing, lying about her illness and destroying people's lives and reputation.
Re: “Widespread Panic with Yonder Mountain String Band”
Wow CLyde Ride,
Your review reeks of presumption and unfounded statements, and I am a Phish fanatic. KYS troll!
Also CLyde and the author of the article are both wrong. Phish may have more fans around the country but that does not mean that Phish has enjoyed "national exposure", which I assume means mainstream success, while Panic has not. Outside of both bands home regions, most people have never heard of either one.
Re: “Widespread Panic with Yonder Mountain String Band”
The reason they never got the national exposure that Phish did, is because they are mediocre musicians whose songs all sound the same, and all of their shows are very redundant, and the audience typically isn't knowledgeable about other types of music. They had a chance to rise to that level, but they simply cannot evolve year after year. A WSP show from 1989 sounds the same as one from 2011.
Re: “Love Music Fest”
Hands down one of the best outdoor music venues in the tri-state area. over 100 acres of rolling hills and beautiful scenery located 20 minutes south of Memphis in Love, Mississippi.

Its a must see for any fan of local music by amazing local artists. BYOB-no glass-no pets- coolers checked at gate. visit www.lovemusicfest.com for all the details and artist showtimes. and if you hurry you can save big $ by ordering your tickets online.

They actually don't do it on Wednesdays anymore. It's Monday's and Friday's. And KJ is RickyMac, Not DAP.
Re: “Tommy Tune "Steps in Time"”
I hope they taped his show so that we can all have a chance to enjoy his talents.

Re: “"Horn Island 27"”
The Opening is Saturday September 10th, 6 p.m. Memphis College of Art, Overton Park, Memphis, TN
The show is displayed beautifully. The works of art are a reminder that life and art go on after disaster to create the beauty of nature and the coming together of kindred spirits. Each year students keep a tale all journal and take a journey into life with nature that will never be forgotten. The love of the Island shows through in the watercolors, photos, spirit boxes, birds etc. This show has something to share with those who find works of nature and earth inspiring. The show and how it came about is unique and each year brings new talent. Don't miss this chance to meet the artist and share in the Horn Island beauty and mystery.
Re: “Delta Fair and Music Festival”
The thought of buxom young ladies in overalls wallering in the mud with a pig makes me all homesick.
Re: “Ted Nugent”
Wow.Right-Wing Guitar God? Sounds like this magazine might not approve of Mr. Nugent. I have never heard them refer to a liberal musican as Left-Wing Anything? OH well. Whatever.
THIS WEEK'S ISSUE
SPECIAL ISSUES
Re: “Yo Gabba Gabba!”
They hated children's television so much, they took out the worst things about children's television and put it all into one show? Oh, the irony, it bleeds.
I would rather my kids watch Barney or the 700 Club.
