I love the old Nudie suits so can't wait to see those. I was a fan of BR-549 and I love that late 50s early 60s Countrypolitan sound, so I was hoping to catch a band like that. One reason why I plan so much for road trips is so I don't miss the hidden jems (like you folks are pointing out). "Winging it" is fun but you could miss a tiki bar or great old joint by one block and not even know it! I've mentioned them before but the Moon Handbooks are by far the best travel books I have found. For example, the Omni Hut is in the Tennessee Moon Handbook. http://www.moon.com/
