It's that time of year again. The time when I fight with myself and try to decide if Memphis in May is worth it this year or not. See the lineup here. Things worth seeing:- Three 6 Mafia. I went the last time they were there, and it was the most hilarious, entertaining, ghetto, slightly scary but at the same time thrilling show ever. There's that one song, "Push a.... (bleep)" during which I thought I might die. But laughed the whole time. Wear steel-toed shoes.
- North Mississippi Allstars. A southern music festival staple. Wear flip-flops and skirts.
- Allman Brothers? Aren't you supposed to see them once or something? I don't know....
- Old Crow Medicine Show. I hear they're great.
- (gasping) Counting Crows?! I've never seen them. And ps, I love them. Really, I do. Many many high school and college memories. There's a song about Elizabeth.
- Barenaked Ladies- I don't care that they got a little cheesy around '99. I have liked them from the start. They're Canadian, and they have a stand-up bass. And they do a rap medley which is always fun. I saw them at my first Memphis in May when Melissa was at Christian Brothers. I was a mere 17, and it was super cool.
- Project Pat??? The one that says, "bwok bwok, chicken chicken bwok bwok, chicken heads (boy please whateva) bwok bwok, chicken chicken bwok bwok, chicken head
bald-head scala-wag ain't got no hair in back
gelled up weaved up

Ohhhhhhhhhhh, no. What do you think, guys?

you should definitely go. it sounds like fun and i can live vicariously through you.
Oooh, I must say that I'd almost forgotten about this lovely music festival. I just might have to look into going myself.
Three 6 @ Memphis in May is STILL the BEST Concert I have ever been to. The 12 yr olds behind us smoking the huge joint was hilarious as well!!!
