[Harp-L] Trip to the States. Places to go?

[David Garcia <davidgm@xxxxxxxxxx>]

	Hi all.

	Next weekend I'll be leaving for my first trip to the States. I'm visiting 
some friends in South Carolina, and two of the scheduled visits so far are 
Memphis and Natchez, MS, because they have relatives there. Now, my friends 
aren't much into the blues, so I'm looking for some info on cool 
blues-related places to go to in the SC, NC, TN and MS areas: from joints, 
record stores or jam sessions to routes, locations of places like the Muddy 
Waters cabin or the Dockery Farm...Any kind of hints will be appreciated.

	Not to bring the topic up again, but I'll be carrying my harps and a 
couple of mics in the cabin luggage, so I hope I won't have any problem. 
Last week in Toulouse, France, they made me check-in my back pack because I 
had a flashlight in it, and they argued that it could be used as a weapon 
to hit someone in the head (!). I've always carried my flashlight in the 
cabin luggage, and never had a problem. But I guess that under the same 
reasoning you could stick your harp into someone's eye, or take the covers 
out and use them as threatening knives. Or, more scary, you could threaten 
to play some Alanis stuff on it...Brrrrrr...Anyway, I was just thinking out 
loud with this, so I'll let you know if I find some problem with the harps.

	Best regards from Spain, and thanks in advance for the help.

	David
