It's gonna be real hard to stay home. Hey Jolie, jada, mightyrad, swag and i are going to seafood fest saturday and congo rhythms on sunday. Will we see ya?
Hmmm. Last time I looked, the 7:30 slot on Friday at the Seafood Fest was Blues Traveler. Now, they're not listed on the fest site at all, but they are listed for Harrahs/Fulton Square on Friday night, with SRO tickets on sale at Ticketbastard for $25 a pop. :(

Yep... I just looked at the schedules for the first time!
I gotta confirm with my krewe, but I'd say Fulton Saturday for sure and Congo Sunday afternoon. :D

I just saw the same thing Swag. Very disappointed as I have followed John Popper and BT since their early days. I think they are worth it but it would have been better for free. ;)

oh sure --- get me all excited and then break my heart <sniff>
Actually, we're still debating whether to spend Friday night in NOLA and drive to Lafayette Saturday morning for FA or leave Friday afternoon and spend three nights in Lafayette. 6 of one, half-a-dozen of the other.
