Well, it's been a few days since I got back from New Orleans but thought I'd post a couple pics from my trip to Jazzfest.
My dear friends, Steph & Lindsey, accompanied me last Thursday down to the Big Easy for the 40th year of celebrating the Jazz & Heritage Festival. This is the third year in a row that Steph & I had been down to Jazzfest so we were already fans of the festival - but this year --- our favorite - Dave Matthews Band --- was headlining the weekend we were going. BONUS! We were so excited for the sunny weather, delicious food, flowing daquiris and the music!!
Last Thursday & Friday were spent tooling around the Quarter and of course, hitting up Bourbon - The Famous Door became our favorite spot rather quickly.
Saturday was spent walking around the festival and in the evening, we saw James Taylor & Wilco. Sunday was dedicated soley to our boyfriend, Dave Matthews. :) We got up early, got in line for the first bus departure out to the festival grounds and secured a righteous spot not too far from the stage. Better Than Ezra performed right before DMB and they were fantastic! I had no idea how much I would enjoy their show. Dave came on and was A-MAZ-ING. I think I burned a couple hundred calories dancing & jumping around (sorry people sitting in chairs behind me...). His show is always awesome and I suggest that anyone who hasn't seen him live yet, please do so before you make any judgment about him...(my soapbox ends now)...
Anyway - it was a great trip with my girls and I'm so glad we went again this year. Hoping to make it trip #4 next year! I'm trying to post some pics but my computer isn't cooperating. I will post them when I can!
