For those readers that are local I would be remiss if I didn't mention that this weekend is the French Quarter Festival. Actually I'm a day late, it started today and featured some of our favorites such as Coco Robicheaux and Irene Sage. But Saturday and Sunday are lined up with more favorites like Amanda Shaw, Susan Cowsill, Paul Sanchez, John Boutte, Charmine Neville and a lot more great musicians. One of the great things about this Festival is that it's free. All this great music and it doesn't cost anything. You can wander from one end of the quarter to the other and hear all sorts of great music. And what I really like about it is that the music is all local. The French Quarter Festival features Louisiana artists. This is worth a trip to New Orleans. I know the Jazz and Heritage Festival gets most of the news, but this one is worth a trip from out of town, especially if you love the local music. Be prepared for more words and pictures from the Festival.
