Happy Easter from New Orleans
Apr. 9th, 2007 07:09 pmYesterday I considered going to catch the Pigeon Town Steppers second line parade, but I stayed home mid day working on a presentation I'm doing at the Music Colloquium next week. I wasn't sure where the parade would go anyway.
When I headed out out to do something else later in the day, I hadn't driven far before the second line was unexpectedly blocking my route. Well, fate decided I should catch the parade whether I got off my rear to hunt for it or not, so there was nothing to do but park the car and enjoy the wonderful music and procession.
Later that evening, over to a friend's house for an Easter Party, where there was a jazz jam. While perhaps less visually interesting, it was no less of a thrill for the ears.
