Back in April, I Love Memphis went on the road! I had a generous invite from Mississippi Delta tourism pros to join them on a trip through the lands just a little south of Memphis. I spent four days exploring Greenville, Leland, Cleveland, and Vicksburg with a group of writers and bloggers; there was great history, music, and food.

(Ed. Note: I'm happy to share with you this guest post from I Love Memphis intern Savannah Lyons about her visit to Bombay Chaat Corner. Also congrats to Savannah on her recent graduation from the University of Memphis!)

This Wednesday, May 27, Memphis is having a musical tribute and memorial processional down Beale Street to honor late blues legend B.B. King, who passed away at age 89 on May 14, 2015.

The I Love Memphis podcast is took the show on the road for April and May and broadcasted live from the Tennessee Brewery. This past week was our last special edition.

If you want to take your downtown lunch game to the next level, head to Capriccio Grill in the Peabody Hotel, because they have a new menu that's full of Southern dishes. I stopped by for a media tasting during lunch today (May 2015).

Last week, I set out to accomplish something that had never been done before, at least that I know of: spend 24 hours inside the Bass Pro Pyramid. Why? For a couple of reasons. First off, I wanted to prove to people that the thing really exists and is open, and is definitely not just some bait shop. 

Happy Monday and Grizz Game Day, Memphis! In today's news, we have some BBQ Fest updates, some blues and bluesman news, a couple of fun events, and a whole lot more.
