Indie Memphis has been incredible so far. I have met so many nice people, went out for BBQ with three guys from Texas, met some film-makers, and have been – in general – really enjoying myself. Last night, we were going to a movie at 6:30 p.m., so we headed over to the block party on Cooper to hang out, the street blocked off for the days of the festival, with live music, beer, panels\/talks happening in tents, and a general festive atmosphere. The sky was insanely dramatic (when we came out of the movie later, it was raining). Right in the middle of the block party is the Circuit – used to be called The Memphian – the old movie theatre Elvis used to commandeer so he and 80 of his closest hangers-on could go see whatever movie Elvis wanted to see. It’s still there, but it\u2019s a theatre now, for plays and other things. I’ve gone and visited it before in former trips but now … It\u2019s where I\u2019ll be giving my Elvis talk, complete with clips from King Creole, Blue Hawaii, Viva Las Vegas<\/em> and a couple of others. It\u2019s cool enough that I get to do this talk but that I get to do this talk in this venue is almost too much!<\/p>\n
