I lived in Atlanta for a while and still do the occasional gig there. Too competitive a market there and very hectic... not really like the rest of Georgia but at least it's in the mainstream of concerts and stuff.

Savannah is real Georgia, lifestyle and all. It's shady and laidback. It has class and it also has a touch of New Orleans about it. Savannah was well portrayed in the movie and book "Midnight in the Garden of Good & Evil". No place I like better, but it isn't in the mainstream so we don't get concerts like they do in Atlanta (that's all about Atlanta I miss). Otherwise Savannah is a beautiful lady.

Hilton Head is not as touristy as you might think... it's very contemporary and stylish. Nothing like Myrtle Beach or the like. Lots of marinas and such plus the golf-life is everywhere. Biking is big too - lots of paved trails. Over 250 unique places to dine just on the island alone. Hilton Head is kinda like one big manicured garden really. And just north of Hilton Head is Beaufort, which is very charming and scenic in that Savannah/Charleston way. Speaking of Charleston, that's another lovely and friendly city just up the road well wroth seeing... they have a little more tendency to get the Atlantic storms than we do down here for some reason.

The best time of year to visit is Spring and Fall I guess, especially September when it's warm but not as busy. Winter is nice but the beach is chilly then. Summer is crazed, especially July. Do not visit Savannah during Saint Patrick's Day when drunk tourists take it over briefly.

C'mon down - we'd be glad to see ya'll...
