Tiny- Nice reviews. You do have an interesting and fun opinion of some of my favorites. Glad Rebirth gave you a good birthday… they were my wedding reception “band”– shared the day with Kermit Ruffins at French Quarter Fest three years ago.

If your music budget allows you, check out the FQF next year (always the second weekend of April)

Thanks for writing!

  I certainly did and I have been working on my review amongst training interns at work, moving into my new apartment and seeing music to sustain my addiction. The Jam Cruise articles will come out slowly 🙂

Hey Karen, your website is fantastic!

I met you at “A Night in Treme” at the Howlin’ Wolf during Jazz fest, as the good vibes were flowing from Wolfman, Dumpstaphunk, Rebirth, and company. Your spirit was pure positivity, and your depth of knowledge in the music scene was most impressive. So of course I had to check out the website! Keep up the good work, and keep searching for new sounds. Laissez les bon temps roullez!

Great, fun-spirited writing. I appreciate the photo/video stuff, too, as it seems we have some musical tastes in common.

Keep it up!

  Live artists pay hundreds of dollars for the right to paint in that section? Because that’s what those people paid to be there.
