Jazzfest 2012, or the all things NOLA thread

[PIE-GUY]

Watched this the other night off netflix, funky Meters set from Jazzfest 2000, decent set, but it's the 30 mins of interview footage afterwards with Art and George that's worth getting the dvd for.

In any case, time for my daily mental break, exhausted, and all the noise I'm getting thrown at me this morning makes this the most appropriate:



8 weeks to go!

Cannot wait to be back in NOLA!!!

[gah]

52 days to go. In saving for this trip, sometimes you gotta be... :mrgreen:

Hahaha! I was singing this the other day when i only had a couple of bucks in my pocket, and instead of buying lunch i bought a 45 from the shop down the street.

I'm so in the mood for Jazzfest...

Always. But especially today, with it being 77 out, sunny, makes me feel like I should be standing in the middle of a racetrack throwing down to something dirty from the ninth ward. what what!  :mrgreen:

Can't focus on shit today...

[JPhishman]

So when does the actual schedule come out?

Saw Trombone Shorty added a 9PM show on Friday at Mahalia Jackson with Ozomali. $60 is pretty steep.... sup wit that? Still might do it though and still be able to hit up New Mastersounds or Kraz and GPJr at the Parish for the 2am.

funk yeah  :crazy:

The Mahalia Jackson is pretty big, but the sound and lights will be top-notch in there... more-so than almost anywhere else you'll go for late night shows during Jazzfest. It will feel like a true theater show.

Agreed. I enjoyed the funky Meters/ Galactic show there last year greatly. Don't know if I'm down for this show though, gotta see what else comes out.

Also,

Midnite Disturbers = nastiest horn line up you'll see at fest  :mrgreen:

Also, who said the cubes were happening today? They vary that release, looking back over the last 6 years, it's been as early as Mar 23rd and as late as April 6, with the average being the last week of March, so today would be super early.
