As I havn't done a shameless plug for my making funny noises with a slip-horn in a while, my August public appearances on trombone include:

The first 4 Wednesdays, anyway, at the Circle Bar (on Lee Circle) with the Little Big Horn Band, 10pm on. This is an outgrowth of Big Medicine/Red White Black & Blue: combining Native Americans and Mardi Gras Indians, now with New Orleans funk and Brass Band. Should be interesting, or a bit different anyway.

Sunday the 7th at Fritzel's on Bourbon Street with the Spanish Fort Jazz Band, 5pm - 7pm. This is the debut public performance of the deliberatly period 1920s style band. Yes, I'll be playing the 1910s White trombone for this one, and the drummer will likely have her authentic 1920s drum kit (complete with the palm tree painted on the bass drum head) set up.

As far as I know the monthly Genial Orleanians gig at the Neutral Ground will continue, Monday the 29th at 10pm. Tunes old & new under the direction of Jon Pult, intersperced with "dumb jokes for smart people".

Not a music venue per-se, but as the lovely & talented [livejournal.com profile] mshollie invited me to put together a band to open the Miss Crescent City New Orleans Pagent, the first performance under the name "Froggy's Milneberg Joymakers" will perform a short set at the Unitarian Church on Claiborne & Jefferson at 1pm, Saturday 27 August. Hey, if you want to pay admission to the pagent to hear the band, go ahead. Come for the band, stay for the swimsuit competition!

And that night, the Krewe of OAK Midsummer Mardi Gras and White Buffalo Day celebrations will happen on Oak Street starting at the Maple Leaf. I expect to be participating in the parade in some role or another.
