The article says that Fats might play! I am hoping that some of the out of town artists will be in the house. The possibilities are amazing. We will be there and I am really looking forward to this show.:)

Yep. Couldn't stay away this weekend, Frank. My friend juana gave a resounding yes when I called her last sat and said wanna go to nola next weekend? She's flying in thursday night and is in the market for some real estate. So she'll be tied up with that most of the daze. I'm driving down Friday after work. Then we're driving home together sunday night.

I'm downloading this baby into my i pod as we speak.
I noticed a bonus track on i tunes. "I'm Ready" from the Tips performance!
Wasn't there a rumor about a delux version with a bouns DVD of Fat's Tips show? I asked at my record store but nothing came up. Based on the bonus i tunes track it would make a killer CD/DVD.

I bought the CD today at Barnes & Noble, but I went to iTunes for the Bonus.
Sometimes, I just want to hold & smell the CD. Besides, now I can get LBOG to sign it. :D

Looks like a good sized contingent of Threadheads. Have fun! KK, Nolafunk, Dag, Almaro, Bluesgirl, Zydekitten, Windowman and any others going.

Ms windowman and I will be at Tip's tomorrow, Belle. Sorry I won't see you there, maybe we'll meet at fest next year. Are you coming for Voodoo? I recall seeing posts that you were and then were not.
BTW, you can buy the FD CD at Circuit City for $12.99 through tomorrow, which I think is an awesome stocking stuffer or whatever.
Frank, I missed ya'll on Monday at the dome but I will see you at Tip's manana. It should be a wonderful show.
