Led Zep Girl Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 It's a wonderful, energetic time in the city right now!! You can feel it in the air, between The pre-Superbowl festivities and the Mardi Gras season parades. To top it off I am in the middle of it all, enjoying eveything surrounding these events. Of all the places in the city and metro area, The Ravens are practicing at a facility where i work, (Tulane University) and I will be doing the set -up/break down (electric and sound) for the ESPN show, "Mike and Mike" which is going to be broadcast from McAlister Auditorium (inside Tulane's campus) tonight @ 7:30. http://tulane.edu/ne...012413_espn.cfm The Craig Ferguson show is doing a live taping in Jackson Square (in the French Quarter) tomorrow night. I will be attending it with my wife. Good times!!!! http://www.hollywood...per-bowl-413186 RH- I'm so jealous! I'm not a big sports fan but, I think it would be very cool to see the different types of people that the Super Bowl will be bringing in! Have fun & enjoy!

ScarletMacaw Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I'm standing at the corner of Royal and Orleans, down the street from my hotel (in the brown shirt). Other pics: Jazz band near the park, my hotel (Bourbon Orleans), street scene, a wedding party with a parade/jazz band--what a great idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deborah J Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Bump for the hometown...Was anyone else on the forum at this? http://youtu.be/GH77O2tAKoc Bob Dylan - The Warehouse - May 3 1976 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pottedplant Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I didn't know we had a New Orleans thread!!! No, I was not at this concert, but attended others at the Warehouse. Great place and I'm so sorry it's gone. There was another place in the Quarter that we used to love to go to. Debs, I'm sure you remember it - the Ivanhoe. It was a typical hole in the wall joint in the Quarter, but OMG, the music you could hear was incredible. Any rock entertainer who happened to be in town always stopped by the Ivanhoe. One night I was there with my BF, and who comes strolling out on stage - BB King. A few minutes later, here comes Jeff Beck. The people at the Ivanhoe that night got to hear BB and Jeff jam - for free!! Another time, Stevie Ray Vaughn and Greg Allman were there and put on quite a show. Just off the cuff jamming. Wonderful. The Ivanhoe is gone now, like so many other great places. As you said Debs, New Orleans is no longer New Orleans - not the real magical place we grew up in and loved so much. Katrina ruined the city and it will never be the same. It breaks my heart and causes great anguish at times. To lose such a magnificent city is a true tragedy.
