Well, I tried to make it to the intersection made famous by the song, but the walk got dark and late!  Was surprised to see such a beautiful downtown area so… ghosttownlike! Not a lot of honking cabs or oblivious pedestrians, everyone was nice! And the BBQ… fabulous! What got me the most was the obvious effort this city is putting into becoming something more. Their convention center and ampitheater are beautiful and the surrounding downtown is full of great old and new architecture. The downtown Marriott takes center stage at night with an LED lightshow… that utilizes one whole side of the their 22 story facade! The whole experience kinda  reminds me of an AV production company I know! In a time where our country is struggling to keep its head above water, Centrifuge Media  is doing bigger and better things and growing! Oh, and if your meeting needs a full building LED show, we can do that!
