Memphis finds Main

By late summer of 2005, it was no secret that Tom and Kelly were planning to get back into the bar business.
But not just any bar would do. It had to be just the right place, and it wasn't easy to find.

But find it they did.

The old Vriner's Confectionery building?  How cool would that be!


Sure, it's dark and empty now. But you can almost feel the buzz of over 125 years of history just waiting to light up and entertain folks again.
     


Just look at that bar! We wonder how many people have sat and gazed at this beauty over the years... how many friends have been made in front of it, how much conversation and laughter has it heard?
We promise to take good care of it.

 


And a nice, big dance floor sitting ready for the music to start. And there will be music! Lots of music. 

 

Our first visitors arrive by limousine.

The kissing bandit strikes again!


A few random pictures of a very happy Christmas!


Ken shows us his Christmas present: a guitar signed by Lynyrd Skynyrd. Awesome!

Psst! Ken is one of those outlaw Renegade guys we have coming to play for our grand opening. That's probably why he looks so familiar.   
Tom playing rock star?!? That's just wrong.

Kelly tending bar? That's wrong, too.

Brent wearing a boa on his face? Oh, now this one is waaaay wrong!

Don't mind us. We're just testing out the seating arrangements over here.
I love this bar!!
