Does Memphis Really Have Nothing to Offer?

For some reason, it has been a norm for people to say “there is nothing to do in Memphis”. I want to be the first to say that I have fell victim to this myself. I would constantly complain about not enough attractions for the “Elvis-immune”, not enough tasteful restaurants, not enough of anything! But one day while complaining on the lack of anything to do I realized that maybe Ive never tried to looking in the right places for anything to do! I mean really if you think about it, in todays overactive internet world, you are either given dates to different big name venues or concerts happening in Memphis that is usually sponsored by the same top companies, or B: Your friend scurries you out the house to tag-along to a place last minute or so (this is usually my case). Im not saying that these are not reliable ways to find something to do in the Bluff City, those are just the same ways of going about it, and maybe trying a different way would be better. Now when I say different, its really not that at all, what Im really saying is-quit looking in the obvious places that youre used to. For example, If every Friday night I follow the same promoter or close friends for the same events hosted on the same day of the week and I attend every time, sooner or later Im going to hate it and Im going to complain. Thats normal and its a part of being human. So let help me help you switch it up with a couple of quick tips!

1. Be spontaneous in your search

Be open to try new experiences, and dont be scared to step outside of the box, if you happen to pass a bar you have always thought of going to but never cared to stop to go in, make it a reason the next time you pass to try it out. You may have found a new kick- it spot.

2.  Find another source To Find Sources.

True, the internet is a permanent way to find info on the hottest events, but are you looking in the right place? Find out what are you interested in (dancing, singing, poetry, networking, etc.,) and find events that cater exclusively to those interests. The Memphis Flyer is a great alternative newspaper that has a list of upcoming events. Another must read is Grace Magazine, and for the kids Jabber Blabber and Memphis Parent Magazine just to name a few. You can find these at your nearest Kroger Grocery stores I pick them up all the time.

3. Blogs, Blogs, blogs!

Believe it or not, there are blogs made in Memphis, and many of them are resourceful. A list of them are below, and just like those Mid-South newspapers & magazines they all have info on many events that are usually low in price & exclusive, locally produced, and just bursting with fun (for real for real!)       

•Urban Black Thoughts

The author of this blog calls himself the “ Painter of written pictures”, and the blog proves him right! There are various discussions on hot topics as well as present and past events featured, and the poet/motivational speaker Timothy "Urban Thoughts" Moore has been selected  for MTENZI 2013 Spoken Word Artist of the Year in Memphis and the region!

• I Love Memphis Blog

I Love Memphis blog is  owned by the lovely Kerry Crawford, and this well-known blog has an insider\'s guide to the best food, music, events, culture and things to do in Memphis, Tennessee.

• Memphis top food blogs - Urbanspoon

This website helps you choose a city to find everything about local restaurants. See restaurant menus. Read reviews and recommendations from critics, foodie blogs, and everything in between. Go ahead and find yourself at a brand new lunch spot!

• Love Live Life

Although this is a website, It features some of the hottest venues in memphis, and it is the ultimate spot to view some of the newest photos through the eyes of the Life-Live-Life.net photography crew.

4. Keep Yo A** at the house!

Ok so Im a bit too much right now, but I have caught your attention. Who says you cant have fun at home with your family? If you have Wi-Fi and a Sony Ps3, You can make it karaoke night with the girls at the next Love and Hip Hop ATL watching party (thats another suggestion I want to host a Scandal watch party soon!)Have your wine glasses ready, get the girls or family together and enjoy each other sound a hot mess!

5. Find some new Friends!

Well not exactly new, but Im pretty sure that if youre cool with a group you call your friends you have the same interests, and that gets boring-quickly. Go ahead and agree to go out with your co-workers that always invite you to their parties or gatherings after work.        
                                                      
6. Just Do It! 

This goes back to step 1.  I made a decision last night to get dressed and get out of the house, and for no particular reason at all. The Memphis Urban League of Professionals hosted a networking event last night at Alfreds, so I decided to just get out the house and go on Beale Street. The air last night was crisp, and warm enough to enjoy what the night had to offer. I enjoyed a live band playing “Brick House” and found a great gift shop called Strange Cargo right on Beale street. They have a lot of quirky stuff, and I have the pictures to prove it. I enjoyed myself down there, and cant wait to just get up and do it again.

So there you have it, and now I want to hear from you.
