The MEMernet overflowed with live music last week. Gonerfest celebrated its 18th year at Railgarten. The Memphis Symphony Orchestra performed at the Botanic Garden. Opera Memphis sang at Latin Fest. Ensemble X performed at Collage Dance Collective. Scheidt at the Shell brought the University of Memphis Wind Ensemble to Overton Park’s Levitt Shell.

Memphis Don’ts

Travel blogger Wolters World gave more than 16 minutes worth of “the Don’ts of Visiting Memphis” in a YouTube video published this week. Here’s a sample:

Don’t worry about walking with your beer on Beale Street. Don’t complain about the heat and humidity. Don’t expect the ribs to be “sauced up.” Don’t feed the Peabody ducks.

Mem-bership

Memphian astronaut Hayley Arceneaux punched her Memphis membership card last week.

“One week ago I came back to Earth and celebrated with the best cold fried chicken of my life,” she tweeted.
