Though I had the opportunity to visit New Orleans before Katrina, I did not get to attend the New Orleans Jazz Festival which happened to be going on during my stay there. Foolish, I was busy studying voodoo with a school group. However I did see and feel the buzz that it created throughout the city streets. Does anyone who attended the 2008 festival have any stories, anecdotes, insightful or amusing recollections of their experience to share with us less priviledged? It must be whole different swang down there from what goes on in Chicago!
