That's the line up. When I went two years ago, we stayed at Rum Boogie the whole time or ran to the bar right next to it. Course I was so into the whole vibe that I didn't pay attention to what the bar is. And the last time I was on Beale I went to either Silky's or Pat O's. So I don't know where I'm going. I don't know any of these bands by name, but who needs to? I don't know who all is going with us, but I'm sure it'll be a nice group. Mike the Cordova recluse might actually come out with us. If so, I'll have to take a pic of that.

Until later kiddies
