Cafe Coco, Nashville

Rice Vial message lead to this drop. Drop recovered at Cafe Coco in Nashville, TN, on 7/19/2007, by Greg Gallows with the help of Marla.

Found under a red and black stained bureau drawer:

It is a page from Dr. Seuss' "Oh Say Can You Say."

Text:

More about Blinn 
Well, when Blinn comes home tired 
from his work pinning shins, 
the happiest hour of old Blinn’s day begins. 
Mr. Blinn is the father of musical twins 
who, tucking twin instruments under twin chins, 
lull their daddy to sleep with twin Blinn violins. 

AND... oh say can you say, 
“Far away in Berlin 
a musical urchin named Gretchen von Schwinn 
has a blue-footed, true-footed, 
trick-fingered, slick-fingered, 
six-fingered, six-stringed tin Schwinn mandolin.”

The numbers in white across the page are another Guitar Tab message which translates to:

Staff G

Staff G = treble

This appears to be musical notes. If you look at the Treble Staff, The spaces between lines are E, G, B, D and F. If you treat each Grouping as a column and each line as a letter with C4 as a word spacer you get:

F **  * *** *  * * *** *** *** ***     **  * * *** *  *     *   *** ***

The message on the bottom reads:

Using vigenere cipher (key=treble) it translates to:

Gershwin's low cloudville - Sun is shining 113-119 - Beans, CDs from New Orleans - No lifts - Beneath a rear table top - Hurry!

[Ray's Jazz Shop] is in the first floor of FOYLES Bookshop 113-119 Charing Cross Road in London, UK. The message seems to indicate this to be the next drop site. "low cloudville" is believed to refer to London. "Sun is shining" refers to Ray's. "lifts" are a term used in England for elevators. "no lifts" refers to being on the first floor. CDs from New Orleans refers to Jazz. The Gershwin song may refer to "A Foggy Day" from the movie "Damsel in Distress".

Lyrics from the song are:

A foggy day, in London town 
It had me low, and it had me down 
I viewed the morning, with much alarm 
The British Museum, had lost its charm 

How long I wondered, could this thing last 
But the age of miracles, it hadn't past 
And suddenly, I saw you standing right there 
And in foggy London town, the sun was shining everywhere
