More cowbell?

So last post was Wed from Candlelight Lounge..well shortly after that post things really got fun. At one point I was handed a drum stick and what must have been a 5 lb cowbell to play along- from my seat- w the band ..it was a blast- me banging away on the cowbell, the Treme Brass Band playing at full tilt, 3 or 4 folks in crowd playing tambourine ( including Rosalie Smith, the Tambourine Lady who jumps on stage at Jazzfest w different bands to do her thing) and pretty much everyone in the place up and dancing..there was one last special treat- at some point i noticed that the drummer for the Preservation Hall Jazz Band -Lil Joe Lastie - had wandered into the clun and in no time there he was playing drums w the band...and this was only Day One!...
