On July 8, I set out on a 26-day journey to 16 cities across the southeastern United States to support Habitat for Humanity affiliates and learn a few things from each city.

This first week was an adventure to Kansas City with three cities on the way. And I have already seen so much. Let's dive right into it, shall we?

Matthew B. Davey, also known as DJ mFace, will begin a 26-day tour across the South and Midwest in support of local Habitat for Humanity affiliates.

The “Southern Gentleman Tour” kicks off in Richmond on Sunday, July 7 at Buddy’s Place and comes full circle on Aug. 1 at the Capital Ale House Music Hall.

You could amble from Havana '59 to the Canal Walk without leaving behind your mojito. Or you could tour the shops of Carytown while sipping on a Bloody Mary to-go. This is Matthew Davey's big idea: contained entertainment districts where pedestrians can walk through neighborhoods such as Shockoe Bottom with alcoholic beverages in hand.
