"I'm Best That Way" - Rat and the Riverside

Apr 06, 2011 11:32

"You know who that fellow... we been eatin' with every day is?"

In 1952 Robert Nighthawk and Pinetop Perkins lit out from Clarksdale, Mississippi with no space in their car for Nighthawk’s suitcase.  Instead the bluesmen left it at their hotel, the Riverside, in the care of the hotel’s owner: Mrs Z.L. Hill, a gracious woman with a young son.  Nighthawk never came back to collect it.  Fifty years later it’s still there, waiting to be picked up.

The site's Wednesday update includes an article on our adventure in Mississippi, info on 13 Ghosts (the upcoming anthology my new short story will be appearing in), disturbing facts about kissing, I provide you something handy, there's a photo of our front hall at dawn, amazing footage of the videomapping of Prague's astrological tower clock and a music video.
