    We're really looking forward to the trip. I suspect we'll enjoy seeing 'Nawlins' and getting to know some of our fellow Rave Wreckers as much as the music.

    Thumbs up I'm as jazzed as jazzed can be

    Looking forward to meet all you great folks. And the after hours nightlife should be legendary. Last year, Sonny Landreth and another guitar God (whose name escapes me inebriated brain at the moment) played after hours at some dive near the Garden District, geez, how good would that have been? One word of advice, do NOT drink the Dixie beer. It will make you ill you want local in New Orleans, drink Abita, it will make you happy
    Do I have to spell it out?

    Wish that it didn't coincide with such an unsettled time for me, so that I could indulge in Nawlins and the J-fest- last one I was at was ..umm 1984, I think. Ya'll party hard now, ya hear?

    Is it worse than Lone Star beer? Is Lone Star even still brewed?

    Lone Star made a brief appearance here in Michigan some years ago. I recollect not liking it very much.

    Give me a dark stout any day of the week. Guiness will work.
    Let the midnight special shine a light on me.

    Chiming in on the Lonestar

    On a hot hot day (103 and above), after two hours of yard work, if you have an Ice cold Lone Star, and I mean right out of the bottom of the ice chest with little frozen thingees clinging to the bottle cold, and it MUST be in a bottle, you could get a Lone Star down. As far as I know, theres no way to get a bottled Dixie down. Although on draft, at Cafe Maspara, at $1.25/per, I think I may have had one or two a long time ago.
    Do I have to spell it out?

    At the rate I'm posting, I won't graduate to 'site regular' until around 2023.

    I still have the 3 at the Hampton, so let me know! I've had the Abita, and I'll try to remember not to drink any other local stuff. I have to warn you though, after a 6 pack or so, I won't be concerned about what I'm drinking, so you may have to keep an eye on me.

    Thanks,
    Swish
    I call my bathroom Jim instead of John so I can tell people that I go to the Jim first thing every morning.

    If you say the word 'gullible' very slowly it sounds just like oranges.
