Royal Crown Factory, Memphis TN - 1998

Royal Crown Factory, Memphis TN - 1998

While the Crowns were in Memphis, TN, their management set them up with a visit to the J Strickland Company, the makers of Royal Crown Pomade, as well as many other hair products. The visit was a lot of fun for the band as the company has deep historical roots in the area, and Royal Crown Pomade has been around since 1934.
