papsrus Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 Sorry guys. Just spotted all these swell birthday wishes. Thanks so much and apologies for the tardy response. Just got back from NOLA, so kicking back with some Clarence Williams and basking in the glow of all the great music, people, sounds, smells, food. No right angles in New Orleans, which tends to enhance the effects of beer intake nicely. Music was outstanding. Hot Club of New Orleans made the Tempura Shrimp at Three Muses taste even sweeter; Jumbo Shrimp Jazz Band rocked the Spotted Cat, dancing was on fire. There was a Second Line down Frenchmen Street on Friday for 'Uncle' Lionel Batiste, the bass drummer for the Treme Brass Band, who passed away July 8. Place was crazy. After several failed attempts, I finally caught the Washboard Chaz Trio, too. Two prior attempts failed: once it was just their steel guitar player, St. Louis Slim, who showed up, which was cool -- lots of Robert Johnson, whiskey and cigarettes. The second time they just didn't show up at all (not an altogether unheard of happenstance in New Orleans, I've learned). But they rocked the Spotted Cat Friday night. Place is a dive, but it's always jumping. Anyways, thanks again for the birthday wishes and cheers! James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish I could have joined you, but Viking country is pretty cool in its own way. The second lines suck, though. We'll make it happen one of these days.

papsrus Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 We'll make it happen one of these days. You bet. As you know, Le Richelieu is getting a tres expensive, though. Admittedly, I went for a suite and didn't search for any deals, but the new parking fee does add up. OTOH, it is super duper secure parking now. And in the end, what the hell. Worth it all. Enjoy the fjords! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
