2008 Coral Reefer Band concert dates

05.03.08 JAZZ FEST, New Orleans


I don't think that I'm going to make it.

NOLAJF

Was at Jazz Fest in New Orleans last weekend. Saw Jimmy Buffett on Saturday and Paul Simon on Sunday. Buffett was awesome. Great show. Simon phoned it in. He had no energy. Maybe that's what he's like live now. Saw Anders Osbourne on Friday in a room that couldn't have been more than 25x25. There had to have been 150 people in there. Met S and M and their friends J and D. Did a little parying on Bourbon street on Saturday. Got Beingnets at Cafe du Monde of course. The food in NOLA is unprecidented. It was pretty amazing that there was a Jazz Fest at all considering how fucked up the city still is. Half crushed cars, uprooted trees, collapsed houses and mounds of trash everywhere. I think that a good time was had by all and I really hope that we get back next year.

Choices

Unfortunately, the choice I'm having to make, is selling my Lakers vs. Pistons and Lakers vs. Spurs tickets so that I can afford to go to Jazz Fest. Jeezus I need to win the lottery.

Jazz Fest '06

So the lineup for The New Orleans Jazz Fest was just announced. The big names are ...

Wow. Just wow. DMB and Buffet are on different weekends. Bah. I'm so there. Hurricane Katrina devestation? Don't fucking care. I will go and sleep in a tent on the damn levee for a lineup like that. I was there for #35 and this should blow that one away.
