Mayne! My Saturday was amazing, exciting, wild, fun, informative, banging, and every other adjective you could think of all wrapped into 1! Where do I start??? Ok, there are 3 different HOT SPOTZ for Saturday so I'll break them up by 3.1-Evergreen Theatre, 3.2-Gold Strick Casino, Tunica, and 3.3- Push Night Club.
HOT SPOT 3.1 was the Evergreen Theatre located at 1705 Poplar Ave. I had the great privilege to see "Black Man-O-Logues". This is a play by Memphis's own Jacquay Waller. He and his theatre company, Dream Catcher Productions are based in Atlanta, GA. The play "Black Man-O-Logues" takes a serious look at black men and how they preceive love and true feeling when faced with different obstacles. It had an interesting format. It took a look at about 10 different individuals, "The Preacher" for example, and went through about a 10minute piece on character. "The Preacher" had a family, wife and kids, and a huge following at a popular church. But he was also "having relations" with one of his married members. They would have personal counseling sessions that turned into free for all "F*ck Fest"! (excuse my language hehehe) She left her husband and family because pastor told her he would leave his wife for her. After being told that he would not "hold up his end of the bargain" she threatens him with blackmail then storms off stage leaving the pastor to analyze how he got himself into the situation with about a 5 minute monologue. The play ended very intriguingly. The director announced to the audience that we could ask questions to the cast in reference to the situations we saw and they would respond. What we didn't know was that we were asking questions directly to the particular character, and they would either respond directly, talk bad to us for asking a question of that sort, get in an argument with another character, I mean wherever the question took the character everyone would go with it. I've never been to a play that ended with an improve like that. Very well done. I got the chance to interview Mr. Waller after the play ended, which will be uploaded soon, and he informed me that the Company could be contacted via their website

HOT SPOT #3.2 was Gold Strick Casino located on the casino strip in Tunica, Ms. I love staying at this hotel. They have the full amenities, spa, workout center, pool, jacuzzi, gambling, great restaurants, you name it they have it. We checked in our room and did our normal routine of filling the sink with ice on putting the bottles on chill. One of my girls *cough cough* left her razor and began to panic! I suggested she call the front desk and see if they have shaving kits. They sure did, saving her from a mini crisis. The beds in Goldstrick are nice and comfy, even though we never really get too much sleep when we do go. Over all, Goldstrick is the place to stay if you ever make that drive to Tunica. It definitely will not fell like you are at home, yet you'll fell like you have had a mini luxury get-a-way that's only 45 minutes from your home.
HOT SPOT #3.3 was Push Night Club located in Horseshoe Casino in Tunica, MS. Now I have gotten away from clubbing really but if there is any club I will go to it is Push. It definitely does not have the Memphis Club feel. Push can compete right up there with the LA, Miami, or NYC night clubs! There was no wait in the line, unlike in Memphis! We walked in the club and it was popping. We all know guys like to show off so my friend immediately offer to get drinks for me and the girls...wait you definitely didn't think we bought them ourselves did you? We went to the dance floor and as usual it was all eyes on us!!! We're young, hot, and sexy...we are used to it ha! The DJ was on point with his mix of hip hop and pop music. There was music played for every type of person, not too ghetto and not to white, just right! The drinks where coming, had the sexy Go-Go dancers doing their thing on stage, I mean we were have a blast. Then we got pulled to the stage...typical night out ha! We danced on stage the rest of the night, right by the DJ, V.I.P. of course. By the end of the night after pre-gaming, drinks, and shots, we were ummmmmm.......yea THROWED! It had been 1 "Hell of a Night"....unlimited dancing and twerking! We tobbled back to the room and we were starving! We called up room service and got buffalo wings and a huge plate of fries! After that uummmmm yea.....I'm going to assume we all went to sleep *the blur starts about there* Over all, Push Night Club just reaffirms that fact that Memphis clubs are so typical and stuck in a box. But we have a banging secret getaway right up the highway, and if I ever feel the urge to just club it up again, I will definitely make my way to PUSH!
