It was a wet and wild one! More than a few "If Katrina couldn't wash this city away, a few inches of rain isn't going to bother Jazzfest!" type jokes were overheard!! I was totally prepared: big umbrella, plastic poncho, cute new boots- and a desire for fun! As you will see from the picture- Superman hit the fest! Several times I was stopped and asked "Superman- can't you do something about the weather?!" I told all who asked that since it was so hot last weekend, I wanted it a bit rainy! Btw- ZZ Top- kicks ass! They were so much fun- blasting out the tunes, cracking each other up, and getting the crowd whipped up. Those dudes look older than dirt, then again, they never did look very young! Interesting ZZ facts: Formed in 1969- by the same three members still in the band! All three were born in 1949. Jimi Hendrix often spoke of the two guitarists as the most talented he'd ever met. Up until September of 2006- not only were they the same members from the beginning, they also had the same manager from the get go as well!! How rare is that?! Fun Fun Fun!!!
Today is much better weather-wise. My mother and her husband join the crew! Hoping to hear- Morning 40 Federation, Galactic, Nicholas Payton, John Legend, and then close out the day with The Allman Brothers!! Stay tuned!!
