Im travelling to minni this October and jus wanted to know the best places too see and visit. I went to First Avenue, Paisley Park Studio's and some bar that was on a river, can't remember what it was called, there were people arriving on their boats! It was a pretty cool and relaxing place to be. Someone here may know the bar I'm on about. It was back in 2003 I visited, I only had two nights there but it was brilliant to visit.  Sometimes Life is like the post...You just don't get it! | |

check the calendar at first ave to see if anything interesting is playing while you are there. http://www.first-avenue.com if it's a big show you might want to get tickets now!  She couldn't stop crying 'cause she knew he was gone to stay | |

BUMP!
I've been threatening to do the pilgrimage for years - go to First Avenue, hire a motorbike, visit Graceland, all that stuff. All suggestions gratefully received. There is a bit about it in the FAQ but I'm not sure how up-to-date the info is:http://prince.org/faq/8_Minneapolis_FAQ [Edited 9/1/08 15:20pm] | |

But whatever you do, don't eat there. The food is crap.  We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

I was just there and the newfangled Guthrie Theatre is mindblowing! The building has an arm that extends out over the Mississippi River. We went there at night and watched some guerrilla artists projecting animation up on the the "Gold Medal Flour" silos. It was awesome. | |

If you feel inclined to venture into St. Paul, take a tour of the James Hill House located on historic Summit Ave - which, in itself, is a beautiful street to see in the autumn. Quite worth your time if you appreciate historical sites and architecture. Depending on precisely when you'll be visiting, the JJH House might also have seasonal and musical events scheduled, such as ghost story readings or concerts.

Some of the attractions of that area: http://www.saintanthonyma...rict.shtml I hope you will enjoy your visit and have a wonderful time in Minneapolis, Erika2k8.  | |
