Tales from the Tour: Day 0. Troy, Ohio. I arrive home the night before the troupe leaves for Memphis, Tennessee. I wanted to catch up with my Mom, and visit family before I set out upon the long road ahead of me. Spending the night at my Mom's would have been more pleasant, but she gave me the bedroom that both my Father and Grandfather died in. I asked her if she was trying to tell me something, to which she laughed. Needless to say, I didn't sleep. Today starts the shows in Memphis.
