What a nice man! He made two strangers feel at home. He even came out and helped me find a place where I could park my motorcycle in a place were the ground was not too soft for the kickstand.

Inside, there were lots of good people having fun. It is definately on my “go back to” list. We worth the trip from mid-Missouri.

Growing up in the Delta was the best!! Just to know that Po Monkey’s was our hangout all through high school and college is a proud feeling!

Your post reminded me of a story Bill Allard shot for National Geographic in 1999 that was on the Blues Highway. After finding the issue, I discovered he has a shot from Po’ Monkey’s Lounge in the article. Here is a link to some of the photos from that story:

I have always wanted to check out a real juke joint in the south. I will just have to live vicariously through your current journey. What you’re doing is awesome! Keeping posting and can’t wait for more pics.
