So the point of a open mic to me has been to have fun play music of all kinds with many other diffrent syle musicians from all backgrounds...Playing in a band is awesome dont get me wrong but its routined and can get quite boring.
Check it out, just in time for Mardi Gras! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MdDH_a_gdc&hd=1

New Orleans musician and cultural activist, Esquizito invites you to a series of happenings taking place from sunset, All Hallows' Eve, thru All Saints Day, into the evening.
"In this 24 hours, those who have gone before us will be invited to rise again, walk, and dance - and do anything they would like to do again in the material world." Esquizito declares with a wry sense of reverence.
Can anyone out there recommend a good Robert Pete Williams record?
thanks

What is everybody doing this New Year's Eve? I know Galactic is doing their annual thing at Tip's, but I also know that Ivan Neville's Dumpstaphunk is playing with Papa Grows Funk at the Howlin' Wolf. It supposedly has an open bar too. As of now I think I'm heading over there. It should be a pretty funky show.
Today would have been Fess' birthday.
It is time to celebrate!
17 video play list.
Enjoy!
