Memphis on the internet.
Jimmy the Kid
Jimbo Mathus, the solo artist, Squirrel Nut Zipper, and one-time Memphian, had fun at Memphis International Airport last week. He posted a short video of himself passing by the fun-house mirrors at the airport’s children’s area with the caption, “Wow, airline travel has gotten really weird these days.”
Melting Mt. Moriah
Memphis magazine historian Vance Lauderdale reported on Facebook last week, “It’s been so miserably hot this week that — for the first time in Memphis history — the snow has completely melted from the majestic peaks of Mt. Moriah.”
War of the Roses
If you can’t make it to the War of the Roses, Atomic Rose’s drag competition, you can watch it all on YouTube. The show is in its fourth season in which “nine new roses enter the garden” for performance and runway competitions. The winner walks away with $3,000 in cash and prizes.
