I had an opportunity to play Talent By The River in Memphis, Michigan a cool little town of about 1800 people about twenty minutes west of Port Huron. Memphis is best known for being the home of the first automobile invented in Michigan. Back in 1884, the Clegg family invented a steam powered contraption known as “The Thing”. It was a very distant ancestor to the cars that Henry Ford began churning out thirty or so years later but it was the first automobile manufactured in Michigan.
Thanks to Dave Pearl and the Lions club for inviting me to play and to NEMC-TV 6, the local television station for televising the show. It must have been a slow night.
