This was confirmed by Wyatt and Jess, our nephew and his fianc\u00e9 who performed with the Memphis ballet.    If you ever attend a performance in the Orpheum, see if you can identify the seat they reserve for Mary the Ghost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was a bit of a whirlwind tour.  We went to Beale Street (center of blues) St Judes, B.B. Kings restaurant, Sun Studios (who first signed Elvis), the Bass Pro pyramid, The Peabody Hotel &#8211; to watch the march of the ducks, the Lorraine Hotel (Site of the MLK assassination and the Rock
