memphis in may international BBQ festival

this past weekend hammy and company came down from nashville to play with clawson and company at the memphis in may BBQ festival held annually in memphis at tom lee park downtown on the banks of the beautiful mississippi river. here is a quick taste of what saturday was like, all photos courtesy of the hamster.

we decided to take a walk around and found a lovely couple to snap a quick group shot. mississippi river in the background. the black skinny jeans were a big miscalculation. hot day + rednecks + booze.
