One Huge Grammy Win, Two Surveys, Five Minutes and a White Christmas
One Huge Grammy Win, Two Surveys, Five Minutes and a White Christmas
Another Tuesday night, another beer bust at the Hi-Tone with Lou Reed, the Clash and some Pabst. Slightly embarrassing confession: at beer bust, you can get $5 all-you-can drink PBR, $3 shots and $1 cheese slices. Until yesterday, I didn't know that they meant slices of cheese pizza. I thought they were talking about Kraft singles or something.
In other news:
- Big congratulations to Al Bell, who's the latest recipient of the Grammy's Trustee Award. It's the highest honor a non-performer can receive. As the former head of Stax Records, Bell is more than deserving of the award.
- Look out! Memphis may get one of those elusive white Christmases that people outside of the South are always talking about. There's a National Weather Service advisory and everything!
- If you've got a few minutes today, there are two organizations that could use your feedback. Artspace Memphis is taking a survey to find out about the Memphis area's art needs, and I'm doing my annual readers' survey to get feedback on the blog.
- There's going to be another IgniteMemphis event on February 24th. IgniteMemphis is an evening of 5-minute, 20-slide presentations on all sorts of things, given by anyone who's willing. They're already taking proposals for the upcoming event. Slots will probably fill up fast, so if you want to talk, go ahead and submit your topic.
