The Please, Please Me hit the Big Easy

Mementos from our last trip: June 15-17

Alissa w/ beignets at Cafe du Monde (while talking on the cellphone & balancing her cello against a trashcan)


Getting ready to play Cannonball live on WWOZ



Bloody Mary's (how else are we to wash down the beignets??)




Loney Abrams's birthday bash at our Circle Bar show

The tradition of pinning dollar bills to your shirt on your birthday never fails to crack me up



Wild crowd. We do our best to whip up the energy; they took it & ran with it so fast, we weren't quite sure what had happened after. Never seen so many broken kazoos.

Wish i had pictures of us climbing the statue in Lee's Circle and looking out at the city after.

ps-- Alissa's new wig & the necklace I got off the mannequin are to die for.

Thanks Zack Smith (host with the most), George Ingmire (radio DJ who let us crash his show), Lu Rojas (the one & only... be back to record soon), Luke Huddleston (Silent Cinema & our guest trombonist) and Jason Songe (the Circle Bar) for making magic happen.
