Here's an interesting item. Next weekend- Sunday April 3, 2011- there is going to be a New Orleans Jazz Funeral and 2nd line to mourn the passing of "old" Coney Island and celebrate the hoped for rebirth of this American classic. Organized by NYC Photographer James Demaria and featuring Dancing Man 504 from New Orleans along with the Jambalaya Brass band from NYC it will be a little bit of NO in NYC. Read more about the event here and get event details at Coney Island events webpage. See ya there!
I attended an event last year organized by and featuring the same folks- a 2nd Line across the Brooklyn Bridge and it was a lot of fun. You can see my pictures from the event in the slideshow on the right hand side of the page. You can also go here for additional photos and video.
