Be that as it may, I was there a few months back when we were working near
Tupelo. Went through the Gibson factory and watched some luthiers at work,
then watched the ducks working (perhaps not as skillfully) at the Peabody.
Even in the late afternoon and early evening, we had a chance to hear some
incredible acoustic and electric sets up and down Beale - touristy or not,
there is still some great talent to be heard if you enjoy live music.
That's an understatement. We heard a 4-piece band playing in front of
a store, on the sidewalk, that rivaled anything Robert Cray or Stevie
Ray Vaughan produced. And the guys who were actually IN the bars,
working for pay, were even better.
This is THE place for live music, beyond a doubt.
