I thought Beale Street was in Memphis. The original BB Kings is in Chicago, but hopefully there will be others as well.

BrilliantOriginally posted by deano View PostSounds good. A bit similar to a retirement holiday that me and Mrs. Deano are planning. We want to do a music tour. We will fly to Chicago and do the blues clubs there before getting a car and driving down through the Midwest. Kentucky for the bluegrass, down to Nashville for the country and Memphis for the rock’n’roll, before heading into Mississippi to finish where we started, with the delta blues – the birth of all of the above.
I want to do it now!
is it Beale st in Chicago ?
BB Kings ?

Eternal Optimists big adventure
Fire and Ice
As I am clocking on a bit, I have decided to go on one last big adventure before I jack it in and start doing cruises or head off for the old folks home.
Next September I am taking the missus to the US and we will hire a car in California and drive up the west coast. Cross into Canada then get as far North as we can, then fly out of Vancouver, possibly Anchorage.
I reckon 4 weeks should just about do it
I will call it 'Fire and Ice, 2009 road trip'
