how long do you have in memphis?

looks like a week or so in each city. beginning next wed in chronological order. Bars, theatre, whatever as long as it is good times.
Events "Design related" would be killer!

I'm from Indy, and yes, unless you're in town for a race or a convention, it's pretty loser.
There are some bars downtown, and broadripple is just like college, but otherwise, eh.
- TenaciousG0
However, there is one thing you should hit up in indy- the children's museum. it's a theme park in a box
