Enough said? Nah, let’s get started.
I went to Memphis In May. It wasn’t that muddy as it was last year and probably the year before. The Mississippi river is at an all time high. The power lines poles were half way under water. Thank God, Tom Lee Park is like 40 feet above all that.
Sooo, anyways I got to see Stone Temple Pilots. My bestie is out of town so she couldn’t come with. But it was fun, man. I’ve never seen STP, so it was a rad experience. They were the last band of the night. I got there 2 hours early and we just had to walk around a while. I did end up freezing my ass off. But I guess I expected to be sweating like last year :\. This year it was like 15-20 degrees cooler, as opposed to last year, and my hair stood in perfect shape.
Slightly Stoopid was on before STP, and they were pretty good. I sipped on water for 4.5 hours. Not even sprite!! Haha, boring~no tea. I wasn’t hungry, but I did start seriously craving ramans and chai tea, because whatever they were using at the steak and hot dog stands smelled like noodle seasoning.
But I pressed on through the end of April cold weather, and seriously lived in the moment. I did take some pics, but they’re not all very good, so I’m posting the best ones!
