Friday:
– T-Bone Burnett
– Lucinda Williams (mostly to see if she was pasted and forgot most of her lyrics; she was fine this time, played a lot of for-Louisiana music and ended the main set with Joy as predicted)
– crawfish
– Fahy’s
Saturday:
– Calexico (yay!)
– Norah Jones (meh – I napped until Trombone Shorty was invited onstage for one number and then left)
– Pharoah Sanders Quartet (their drummer is divine!)
– crawfish bread and strawberry smoothies
– party at Colette’s where my rajma was a big hit
– Fahy’s (where I ran into Jeffrey and Menckles and heard about Mumpkin Fest)
– Met up with oodles (!!!) and S/A who were in from San Francisco for the weekend
Sunday:
– kidnapped Alexis
– Jerry Lee Lewis (sad that he’s too old now to jump up and down on piano)
– tour of WWOZ hospitality tent and production trailer via Loki
– The New Orleans Bingo! Show (ssssmokin’ for a subdued, daytime, outside performance; I still love Clint Maedgen and his musical genius)
– Joined by Lisa, lovely young Rachel and Smasher while dancing and taking pictures by stage right
– strawberry smoothies and Dove bars
Pictures available as soon as I recover from deeper tan and major solar exposure.
