What bands should be booked?
The comitee always does an amazing job, but I's like to see more women singers,maybe an allstar band featuring Kim Carson, Susan Cowsill and a few others.

And what's up with this friend of hers???

I heard ya! She reminds me of the chickee from Squirell Nut Zippers http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7fajFa1bNw but there is someone out there that sang like that originally ... I'm on the cusp of gen X & baby boomer so I "unfortunately" have no clue who it was:o :confused:

If you don't like her you prolly don't like Bingo either. I love that vaudville,
40's stuff. But then again I like most everything.

I heard he doesn't like pina colodas or getting caught in the rain, either.

How about Bob French or George French with Germaine Basil ?

[NeenAtlanta]

Now you're talking! Germaine would be great - a N.O. icon. Or even maybe Irma Thomas?

Gee, can we get James Andrews too, then my life would be complete!

I think I'll back on out of this thread and leave it up to the entertainment committee, who have done such a phenomenal job for the last three years....

Yes the committe has done well and will continue to do so I am sure. But why would you want to back out of this thread? Just curious. I meant no offense..

[ohio]

exactamundo! Hi Jeff!

[Michelino]

Last night of FQF, we wandered into Preservation Hall and Glenn (David) Andrews was leading a fun band that included members of NewBirth, Rebirth, DDBB and New Orlean Jazz Vipers. Something like that would be cool especially if James and Troy join in. (Although I suppose most of those groups will be busy playing elsewhere in the city at the same time)

I am on personal quest to catch the New Orleans Klezmer Allstars again..every year at Jazz Fest it seems that FOMS strikes and I have a conflict so they would also be great.

Of course, not making it to a patry yet, but admiring the past few line-ups all the same, I have faith in the committee to come up another special slate without any advice from me.

[ohio]

I hope you'll join us for this one, Mich!

[NYMAMA]

Just thinking about the Patry I'm getting excited.
Sunpie and the La. sunspots?

[breambob]

Yes the committe has done well and will continue to do so I am sure. But why would you want to back out of this thread? Just curious. I meant no offense..

I think she meant there are some very strict rules laid down about the patry announcements, and those are at least 5 months away.

One note about Zydeco and Cajun bands at the patry. It's very difficult, you really must find a band staying over from first weekend or bands coming in early for the stomp, which means a big $$$$ budget hit for a private patry on Tuesday. Add in it's at the end of FI and the start of Crawfish fest, where they all show up at. :(

bb thanks for that splanation...
but i think amanda shaw lives in new orleans?
and some of the bands must live within a days driving distance, altho
this im not sure of...
also thursday nite is zydeco nite at rock n bowl, so the band that plays
there might be a possibility?

It is tough. And I'm not going to comment on '08 either.
But I will say that in '07 we contacted bands / agents for: Bluerunners, Geno, Riley, Nathan, Zydeco Force and a few others from Acadiana, those contacts will be tried again, I'm sure. Nuttin' gets my butt moving like the Zydeco :)

[Crawfish Fest]

It's not an easy job.

[Belle]

But one that is appreciated. I just thought we were dreaming not asking to break any rules:confused: But again I will never understand all the protocol, nor care to. I was just having some fun with the question asked!

[breambob]

Always plenty of Oinkers on the music committee, I do like the all star girls band idea just don't tell mrs steve!

Oinkettes on that committee too, though. Who knows ?

Hmmm. Kim, Susan, Rosie, Theresa, Charmaine, Amanda, Christie Balfa, and missing some here...
I'm licking this chick idea, I think I could deal with about 8 hours of that kinda stuff.

Oh, and b00bs ;)

A note to all you seed planters: We do the best we can. Budget constraints are a factor (don't expect the Neville Bros.- but you never know...). Keep on posting your wishes, but understand they may well not be the final selections. Nothing wrong with wishing! We tend to not book bands that are novelty in nature. We tend not to book bands that are not universal in appeal. We do tend to book da funk. Wish on!

Heck Ohio if they are not at the Patry then they may be a club at night. You never lose in NOLA

[barry10016]

Eggsactly. tons of bands and tons of thought are put into the nominations let alone which get picked. Can never please all y'all, but I think we've done OK the past 3 years, EH?
And oh yeah, think funk, wish funk, be funkaaayyyyyy!!! ;)

Personally I think each year's lineup is the best -- and then you guys manage to top it! Having been around a few people who book festivals in Canada, it's a tremendously labourious process to coordinate appearances, travel etc. within an artists' window of availability, not to mention keeping on budget.

[mightyradgumbo]

The committee does a hell of a job, IMHO. Having been to two of the three TH patrys, they have gotten better each year. Throwing out ideas prolly never hurts though....just in case dragonsmoke there is a group dragonsmoke that I am sure would tear the roof off dragonsmoke the patry dragonsmoke I just don't have dragonsmoke any suggestions of my own dragonsmoke :D

[Frosty]

How about Rod Stewart? He can be had for $800,000 or so, I believe. And, he has a huge Lite Rock following.

We'll work on those ideas send us 100K in small unmarked bills and see what shakes out send us 100K in small unmarked bills. You never know send us 100K in small unmarked bills what we may come up with send us 100K in small unmarked bills.

I'm hopin for Injuns this year too Vic....and Trombone Shorty would be da BOMB!

But we know the process after having done it the last couple of years. It ain't easy and takes a LONG time to figure it all out. Bottom line is, whoever we have....the backyard patry will continue....no festival or club feel wanted. We try to book bands that fit that vibe as much as possible.

[breambob]

Sirs!!! Mr. Breambob, 8 hours??? More than my heart is atwitter.

Started around 1 last year and went until 10 pm. It RAWKS!

and it's in someone's back yard? I saw the pics from last year, looked like a good time. Is it on a specific day of the fest? days between?

thanks for the link corona and I should have introduced myself at the Hookah Cafe, I recognize you and Swag but was feeling no pain so to speak, not sure that would have been the best time to introduce myself! HA

[ibjamn]

Very cool, we'll try to make that if we are lucky enough to get tix.


Ibjamn, thanks for the Elizabeth's rec in the restaurant thread, we loved it. I didn't know I liked chicken livers so much, the jelly makes you want more.

[breambob]

Yes, and anyone that gives away the exact location is due for a severe session with Mr. Slappy. Right corona?

Here's the thread that got this started. The 2forthefest reply is very significant in the patry history that unfolds:

"Dinner at Commanders"

It is never too early to start rallying support for a Feast. Who is in for dinner at Commander’s during ’05 fest. Perhaps that would be too pricy for some and it would not be fair to be exclusionary. It could be Mandina’s, Acme, or ??? It would be a fun way to get together and meet each other and last fest proved I am terrible at getting the early start necessary for Luizza’s. It seems meeting during fest, which I will make it a point to do, still leaves everyone wanting to get to that next act. Dinner would be relaxed and much more slowly paced. I plan to do both weekends next year. What day would be the best to catch the most people. Yeah, I know, it is crazy to be talking about this so soon. I can’t help myself as my wife says I am an inveterate planner.

I am still going to do Commander’s as it has been two trips now that I have not gone. Something about the place just draws you back. I probably have had better food but it is very good. I have never had better service, bar none. The location, ambiance and overall experience of dining there just leaves me all warm and fuzzy. Carrie and I would love to have some company.

If we can generate support it would seem that plans would have to be made well in advance for a period like Fest. I know that I made some dinner reservations as much as three months early for our last trip and there was an occasion when I had to take a different time than first asked for as the restaurant already had so many bookings. Anyway, no time like the present to gather some thoughts and perhaps put something together. Anyone up for this???

and yeah....I blew it last year by posting the location....thank god for the delete button on here :)

We keep it quiet because we can't afford crashers and trouble...we were a bit worried last year cuz of the Rads but for the most part, it was totally cool :)

[funkkjunkie]

A little more history: The patry was started by 2forthefest who don't post much anymore. Evil half has a friend who has a house with a great backyard and he said , hey, can we have a little party in your yard on daze between? So the first patry was about 60 peeps and the music was kermit and rebirth. The next year: Kermit, rebirth, papa grows funk and gumbohead and?. This year: gumbohead, papa mali(he brought the hot8 brass band), underdawgs, radiators. Next year: We know this for sure. A good time will be had by all.

[denideadhead]

Man, look how far we've come huh? Totally incredible! Thanks for the trip down memory lane Bream!Yep! And don't foget the ACME slurge...

[ohio]

A little more history: The patry was started by 2forthefest who don't post much anymore. Evil half has a friend who has a house with a great backyard and he said , hey, can we have a little party in your yard on daze between? So the first patry was about 60 peeps and the music was kermit and rebirth. The next year: Kermit, rebirth, papa grows funk and gumbohead and?. This year: gumbohead, papa mali(he brought the hot8 brass band), underdawgs, radiators. Next year: We know this for sure. A good time will be had by all.Don't forget Sanchez/Boutte....

[ibjamn]

Of course Shamarr with anybody.
and yes GPjr ....if I see him at the Vibes maybe I will inquire?? maybe the Trio?

OK. I'll be the bad guy here.
All of ya'll's suggestions are welcome and appreciated. But please. Please. Do not "inquire, ask, etc" any acts about playing the patry.
The same group that began planning this patry 3 1/2 yrs ago is still planning it. It was and is meant to be a backyard party where friends (Threadheads) can gather and play.
We have committees; entertainment, food, guest relations, etc.
It has worked great for 3 years now.
Lots of people want to come to this party.
Everything is worked down to the last minute detail. Ya'll that have attended ANY of the patries MUST agree that they have been phenomenal.
Let the Patry Krewe do their job.
I guarantee it will be awesome.

[funkkjunkie]

I knew yall would help me out on the past lineups. Never can remember everyone.
And yall, i'm speaking for the patry krewe, and esp the 2fors. We love that yall love the patry. We do too. We love hearing who you would love to see there. There are about 20 peeps actively involved in every aspect of the planning, and 20 opinions on what we should do and how we should do it and who we should have and what order we should have them in. And the bottom line always falls at evil half's feet because he started it all. We bow to him. ;) But please do not ask musicians if they would be interested in playing the patry! We went thru this last year when several of us had talked to several musicians. Some of them thought that meant they would be playing the patry and we found ourselves in a fix. So again, please don't go there with any musicians.

[VWGal]

IB, YYR, so right. The krewe does a great job and part of the fun for me is the reveal of the bands..one by one...and always a surprise at the last minute...and the FOOD. To die for! Pumpkin roll, berled crawfish, crawfish "monica"...

My career for many years is event planning -- our team puts together over 120 events of every variety across Canada every year. I could put the patry krewe to work anytime, y'all are that good! And you have no idea how much I enjoy going to a patry that I didn't have to plan, it's pure bliss!

Keep checking here, the announcements roll in a coordinated fashion Mac, and book the day of sale off or at least book a closed door "meeting" so you can register to get tickets.

YYR, Jenn...a fantastic job has been done by all. I know the krewe works its collective azz off getting the job done so far be it to do anything to muck it up for y'all...y'all just keep putting the patry together and I will keep showing up.

[mrSteve]

Yes, and anyone that gives away the exact location is due for a severe session with Mr. Slappy. Right corona?

Here's the thread that got this started. The 2forthefest reply is very significant in the patry history that unfolds:

"Dinner at Commanders"

It is never too early to start rallying support for a Feast. Who is in for dinner at Commander’s during ’05 fest. Perhaps that would be too pricy for some and it would not be fair to be exclusionary. It could be Mandina’s, Acme, or ??? It would be a fun way to get together and meet each other and last fest proved I am terrible at getting the early start necessary for Luizza’s. It seems meeting during fest, which I will make it a point to do, still leaves everyone wanting to get to that next act. Dinner would be relaxed and much more slowly paced. I plan to do both weekends next year. What day would be the best to catch the most people. Yeah, I know, it is crazy to be talking about this so soon. I can’t help myself as my wife says I am an inveterate planner.

I am still going to do Commander’s as it has been two trips now that I have not gone. Something about the place just draws you back. I probably have had better food but it is very good. I have never had better service, bar none. The location, ambiance and overall experience of dining there just leaves me all warm and fuzzy. Carrie and I would love to have some company.

If we can generate support it would seem that plans would have to be made well in advance for a period like Fest. I know that I made some dinner reservations as much as three months early for our last trip and there was an occasion when I had to take a different time than first asked for as the restaurant already had so many bookings. Anyway, no time like the present to gather some thoughts and perhaps put something together. Anyone up for this???

Yep, we're in! I've been, but my husband hasn't. Mandina's would be harder with a large group.
A great place last year was Wed in the Park with Marcia. A whole mess of Kats and TH's met up there and 20 - 25 of us walked down and ate at The Redfish Grill afterwards.

We are excited to be going both weekends next year too so pick what ever night works best for you, just let us know!


I'm still waiting for that dinner.

The best I can do is promise that one of my personas will remain non-slurged. The troublesome part of that is that I would probably not be able to find him when the time came to call upon his services. I think Kinderkitti’s offer would be the best bet. I, despite the short distance, would be uncomfortable sending three drunken waifs out into the night in downtown NOLA without proper chaperoning. There is nothing worse than post-slurge distress brought on by contact with non-slurged meanies.
Of course we could always rely on our lifeguard, Barry, to walk you home in his Speedo….LOL at that image at 1:00 AM.

It is a distinct possibility that, by January, you planners of patry will be conversing in a language so far removed from English that newbie posters, along with the rest of humanity, will have not the faintest idea of what you’re saying.

BOTN Barry. BTW. I am working on a menu. If they wanted all of us to eat the same thing that would not work. We need choices but the choices are limited by a preselected few the group chooses ahead of time. If I find this is not the case then I am thinking a group of ten to twelve-tops will be the way we go. All will become clear with the passage of time.
Gawd, I can't get the image of vascular netheregion restriction out of my mind. That is way far too funny.

"The Slurged"
A poem by Swamp Girl.

The slurged slagger down Gravier
sturgedly from the Omni (to the manager’s dismay)
Glazing hazedly to the roof
To witness the proof
Of comradicals lungering, tied torkedly together
Flapping elbows like birds of a feather
(ahem…supplementals)
Barry dancing in speedo
Corona chalks it up to libido

Laissez le bon temps roule

since i've never been to the patry, when do tickets go on sale? couldn't one buy a ticket early, and if they can't make it, just donate it?...or is that what's being said? sorry, i've only had one cup of coffee!!!

[NYMAMA]

The Patry was the highlight of my Jazz Fest last year. So just keep doin whatcah doin.:D

[pokerchick66]

We'll work on those ideas send us 100K in small unmarked bills and see what shakes out send us 100K in small unmarked bills. You never know send us 100K in small unmarked bills what we may come up with send us 100K in small unmarked bills.

ROFLMAO!

[pokerchick66]

Okay, I know these are lofty wishes but I'll dream a little anyway:

Trombone Shorty
Tab Benoit and the VOTW band

Or maybe just him by himself. Or maybe he can just be a barback. Maybe crawfish peeler? ;)

Where is Mamaroux? lol, can't believe she hasn't suggested him at least 20 times by now. :D

[Jacquesimomo]

just chimin' in---i echo that the committee has done a phenomenal job and i humbly trust their judgement... that said:

Robert Randolph Family Band and
Papa Grows Funk!

[Amy Winette]

Oinkettes on that committee too, though. Who knows ?

Hmmm. Kim, Susan, Rosie, Theresa, Charmaine, Amanda, Christie Balfa, and missing some here...
I'm licking this chick idea, I think I could deal with about 8 hours of that kinda stuff.

Oh, and b00bs ;)

8 hours of licking chicks Mac, damn, you're better than I thought!

Digging the chick line up myself, but you're on your own for that much licking, my tongue would get tired after about 30 minutes ;)

[linza22]

It's always the Tuesday of the daze between.

You are a great soul gumbo. So happy for you.... and yes I would love to but this damn baggage will be gone too soon and then...I am with you.

[Lester_leaps_in]

Someone on another thread had the idea of trying to get some of the Fest4Kidz kids to do a mini-set during the patry. I hope that can happen. It would be very cool.

[mightyradgumbo]

ok..my little addictive personality don't need to be livin' there...that's all i'm saying. :D

I would second that thought for you sistah :p

A little more info for those who couldn't make it last year.
We have mimosas and muffelattas, along with cold, cold Abitas. You can come down on the studio floor and watch us up close making our artwork. It was a nice laid back patry after THE Patry. I hope that we can have a good crowd again this year!:D

oh yeah, we had cracklins too!!!;)

What bands will be playing next year at RT Fest?

[NeenAtlanta]

I always want injuns, brass and funk.

I'm with you sister! Same for me, but add jazz.

[rosetree]

Thanks Vdub and MRG!!;) :D

MrSteve: I tossed around the idea of having live music at Rosetreefest, but I think that there is soooo much music during those weeks, a little sanctuary in Algiers Point to meet and greet old friends and make new ones won out. ;) :D

Linza: if we run out of punkins, I'll make you some more!!!!

I must admit to putting a pretty good hurtin' on the supply of cracklins. If you got there after me (and I was there pretty early) there **might** not have been any left. :) They were so addictive I couldn't bring myself to leave the gallery to go out to the studio area where RT was working. Besides, my patry hangover wouldn't have done too well in the heat out there.

Cracklins and mimosas, the new breakfast of champions.

ya know, you threadheads, and new orleans in general, are making it really really hard to not eat meat! i love cracklins! everytime i see y'all i've got a chicken bone in my hand, or something wonderful off a pig! some would say i'm not a vegetarian! ;)

Note to Rosetree: next year, hold some back for the later arriving groups....

[McGregor]

Speaking of pig, the Cochon De Lait Po-Boy was pretty disappointing at Satchmo. I dreamed of it all 4 hours on the car ride down, went straight over there and got one and it just didn't do it for me. It was a bit dry and didn't have the kick like the one at JF did.

If I had any idea where to get cracklin's in Canada, or get em over the border, I'd bring enough for everyone! Actually, I am a farm girl and I know exactly how they are made...but have no intention of making them myself now that I am a growed up city girl. There must be somewhere to get them in New Orleans, maybe that will be my contribution.
