Tommorrow we are embarking on a journey of remarkable preportions. We are, like the old Robert Johnson tune goes, "goin' down to the crossroad and getting down on our knees"! I'm very excited. We are going to road trip through to Memphis, TN and spend the night there. From previous visitation we are going to the coolest place on all of the infamous Beale Street, Rum Boogie Cafe. The Rum Boogie personifies all that Memphis represents. The Rum Boogie plays blues, deep blues music and has live music every night. The food is good and the atmosphere is good. After Memphis we are going to Clarksdale for the Juke Joint Festival. A whole day of blues goodness and we are going to visit the very crossroads where Robert Johnson suposedly sold his very soul to the devil. I hope that the weather looks up because it would feel like the right experience to listen to the southern blues without the southern feel. I'm very excited and will keep you posted on what happens!!
