2K Club - QQ Super Nova
well, a very dear friend from HIGH school (1979!) visited me this last weekend -took him to the airport earlier today-and I took him to a Saturday night "special double header" to show him the BEST of the musical polar opposites in NOLA:
-Preservation Hall band at 6:15 PM show
-the legendary Little Freddie King at the dba club in Frenchman's street at 10 PM...
the funniest part was that when the Preservation Hall introduced us to "Phil The Bucket"(tips) I was about to get up to put a few bills in there when I saw that this skinny blonde girl wearing a short black velvet skirt dress was putting several $20s in the till in a very cute way and I thought "well, somebody with a personality was being very gratious with the band, cool" and when she turned around I suddenly realized it was ...Taylor Swift!!!! cause she basically walked an inch past me...well, whaddayaknow???? cool...
Well, it was a great night and Little Freddie King played a wonderful set, and he didn't break a sweat...and he's 80 years old!...it was an incredible evening!
So, here is the great Shannon Powell (drums and overall MC) .. that's me to the right...
and here is the Legendary Little Freddie King wearing an awesome suit , hat AND some beautiful RED SHOES!...he even played "Boogie Chillun'"!!!
And THAT is NOLA, boys and girls....!
