I don't know about you, but the Prince tribute looks good, as does Tab Benoit. Might be a fun getaway to enjoy a show at one of St. Louis' newest event spaces while enjoying a stay at one of the hotels by The Gateway Arch. I'd pick The Drury Hotel myself, I had an excellent stay there a few years ago. Top-notch.
