This date involves a visit to a historical site followed by enjoying live blues music. Enjoy the intimate moment together, surrounded by history and soul-soothing blues tunes. Perfect for history and music-loving couples who prefer a quieter setting.
- The day begins with a visit to the Old Courthouse, a historical landmark in St. Louis steeped in rich cultural backdrop. Revel in the architectural splendour and learn about the pivotal role it played in the United States' civil rights movement. Embrace the essence of the history that the city offers without the bustle of the crowds.

- End the day by sharing your thoughts on the landmark you visited and the music you heard. Maybe even discuss the role que music plays in history and society. It's a great way to not only spend time together but also to gain a deeper appreciation and understanding of each other's interests and passions.
Preparation steps:
- Begin by doing a little research on the Old Courthouse to understand its historical significance better. Book your tour in advance to avoid any last-minute hassles. Check the availability and plan your visit accordingly.
- Arrange the blues jam session well in advance. You can either contact a local band directly or through a booking agency. If you wish to have the session in your home, ensure you have enough space for the band to set up. Don't forget to soundproof the room to avoid disturbing the neighbours.
- For the day of your date, ensure you dress comfortably. Wear shoes that are suitable for a fair amount of walking around the courthouse and dancing at the jam session. Carry some snacks and drinks to enjoy during the jam session.
Some tips:
- Always check the weather forecast before planning your date. St. Louis can get quite hot in summer, so if you're planning your date during these months, consider starting early in the day when it's still cool.
- When visiting the courthouse, respect the rules and regulations. Avoid touching displays and artifacts in the museum unless permitted. Listening and asking questions to guide during your tour can lead to a rich, intellectual conversation later on.
- During the blues session, immerse yourself in the music but also pay attention to the lyrics. Frequently, blues music tells a story or expresses deep emotions which can be a topic for a deep conversation.
