Braving the day’s heat, we moved quickly to property set up early by BFFs Gary & Jemar. We always have a great spot near the Acura Stage where many of the day’s headliners perform. The property is close to a beer booth and the ever-needed port-a-potties.

After setting up our chairs, we quickly trekked to find the oh-so delicious crawfish bread. Score!

We then settled down for an afternoon of listening to a couple New Orleans greats and the headliner of the day, The Eagles.

After the fest, we then headed to a couple after-parties. We ended at BFF Rollie’s gorgeous Bayou St. John home for crawfish and all the fixins. I especially loved the small jazz band and the installation of lighting in the oak trees. What a beautiful sight!

All that Jazz, y’all!
That's an awesome lineup! I've never been to Jazz Fest and I'm not sure it's my kind of thing, but I enjoy seeing friends' pics and hearing stories!
ReplyDeleteOh how I wish I could have been there to take it all in! Looks like a blast.
ReplyDeleteYou have a no-reply on your comment, Ron, so I am replying to your very kind request here.
Yes! You can share my Derby Party pics here.
Thanks so very much. I would be flattered!
Best regards,

I didn't go to Jazz Fest yesterday, but the hubby and son went and loved it. Crowds are not my thing and having to use a porto-potty is definitely a "gross" thing for me. I'm glad you had a wonderful time. :)
ReplyDeleteWe attended Jazz Fest the Thursday before you and had a great time. We try to go every year, I love NOLA sooo much! I'm glad I found your blog through The Polohouse.
