Jazzfest...
yeah leaning that way for the last weekend of jazzfest possibly. Got a craving for roasted oysters and Po Boys
Pretty good lineup announced for the last sunday of jazzfest the other day
I haven't been down there post- Katrina.
Hall and Oates!
that's who my fiancee would want to see. lol
I wouldnt mind seeing Trombone Shorty
Shorty is great. Seen him a few times. Never seen Black Keys but heard good things. Taj Mahal and Del McCroury are definitely worth seeing also. It's pretty much all a homerun.
When you go, do you just hit the fairgrounds or do you also hit the night time gigs, the clubs, bars, theaters?
Oh.. The Metermen.. You have to check them out.
Sorry for the detour..
We did the fairgrounds and then did some of the clubs on frenchman st one night when we went 2 years ago.
If we go this year I'd seriously consider staying at one of the b&b's in the faubourg marigny which is right where all the music clubs are.
My friend who is a music producer is a huge black keys fan
I really want to see Kermit Ruffins also and I know he plays I think every thursday at some hole in the wall usually.
John Boutte is playing also that sunday so it would be cool to check him out since that tv show Treme is one of my favorite shows.
You ever listen to the group " smoking time jazz club " ? we saw them while they were playing one afternoon in the middle of the street that runs parallel to bourbon st. ( magazine st ? ). They were my favorite while we were down there.
