Date Night with Elvis

Yes, you can have a date night with Elvis, and still be alive and well (don't think anyone would want to go on that date, even if it was with the one-and-only Elvis Presley). But in Memphis, TN just minutes away from the dearly departed home of Elvis Presley we have a show of a lifetime with Joe Kent.

    Joe Kent, a native of Memphis, has been performing "A Tribute to Elvis" for over 10 years. This talented entertainer has played in numerous cities including Memphis, St. Louis, Sun Valley, Lake Placid, and Las Vegas. Joe has also appeared at the Memories Theatre in Pigeon Forge, TN with Charlie Hodges, Elvis' back up singer during his concert years.

The concert will be held at the in Memphis,TN at the Clarion Hotel Airport/Graceland on January 5, 2013. The ticket prices will be $20 per person, and will the show will last from 8:00p.m - until 12:00a.m. I am sure a date night with Elvis Presley would be a most memorable one. Hope to see you there.

Salsa in Memphis

There are tons of things one can do while in Memphis on the weekend. Beale Street, 452, a Grizzlies game, a Memphis Tigers game, a show at the Orpheum theater, and possibly go to one of the many art galleries in the Downtown/Midtown area of Memphis. But for those who like to stay busy on the weeknights as well their is something for you, even though it may require for some to acquire a more adventurous spirit. On Monday and Thursday nights for $15 ($40 for 4 classes) you can learn to dance salsa, and also the bachata. The dancing instructors are very hands on and professional. The people who go there are very nice, and the atmosphere is very friendly. Everyone is there to learn no matter how long you have been dancing there. The classes are held at the Minglewood Hall on Madison Avenue between 7:00p.m - 8:30p.m, and after learning you can dance on your own for a while. If you ever get a chance to come to Memphis please, stop by. Learning salsa might come in handy.
