My Morning Jacket - New Orleans Jazzfest

[BH]

I plan the food way more intensely than the music!

;D

I know, I'm looking at the same way.  

"I can't believe I have to miss Simon and Garfunkel because of MMJ and I can't believe I have to miss the crawfish bisque because of the crabmeat po-boy and jumbalaya."

I try not to eat the same thing over and over again while I'm there, but these two are just too good:

Cochon de Lait Po-Boy
Pheasant, Quail & Andouille Gumbo

I have that gumbo almost everday and usually take the po-boy home at the end of the day if they haven't sold out.
Man, is it Jazz Fest yet?  I'm hungry!

This is the one place any music lover/ food lover and all around good human beings should go annually

I've decided, along with my friends that went this year, that we are going to do this festival annually.

Found this little vid.....

Does MMJ steal the show at every festival?  I'm thinking yes.

6 years ago I went for the first time to Jazzfest and said the same thing. I haven't missed one since then and don't plan to.

I am so happy that you were able to go and that you had such a wonderful time.  This event is truly addictive -- and I mean that in the best way.  Sass has been to twice as many as me, but this was my 12th.  Haven't missed one since my first...it's just too damn good to pass up.

BH!  See you there next year!

For what it's worth, the Big Chief in the video with the huge blue feather headdress is Monk Boudreaux.  He's a really, really sweet man.  Have known him since his days with the Wild Magnolia Mardi Gras Indians.  A few years ago, he was on display in the Grandstands, sewing his "suit" for the next Mardi Gras.  I think it was the year after Katrina.  He told me that everybody was worried about him; thought that he had drowned.  He looked up at me and said, I don't know why they thought that.  I just got in my fishing boat and got to where I needed to be.   :)  Apparently, Monk's been fishing since he was old enough to hold the fishing rod.

Oh, I also got to meet Patrick this year.  ;) :D  :)
