Coming soon Krewe du Vieux 2012

Working to get bunch of photos up from Krewe du Vieux parade in New Orleans last weekend- havin' a bit of a technical issue so in meantime, enjoy this video taken at a bar in the Marigny neighborhood . Video features the Paulin Brothers Brass Band who played at a pre- parade party for one of the parade sub- krewes. I have gotten friendly w one of the members of this krewe over past couple years and have for the past 3 years had privilege of attending these pre-parade activities. There are a number (maybe 15-20?) sub-krewes for this parade and most do some variation of this kind of party before the parade. Krewe members assemble at a local neighborhood bar to get costumed, have something to eat and drink and usually have live music. This particular sub-krewe then second lines w the Paulin Bothers brass band leading the way from the bar to the start of the parade. Just another typical day in New Orleans. Enjoy the music video.
