Five On Friday - NOLA Edition

Sparks Of Insanity By Vinny "Bond" Marini Friday, April 15, 2011 8 Of Your Sparks

Photobucket Check out the other participants by clicking on his link to the left...and join in!

You can register for free at playlist.com and type in a band name and BAM the song will be there to assist in building your playlist.

Travis lays out some guidelines for this meme and they go like this:

1. Grab the banner, make your post title Five on Friday, and be sure to link back here.

2. Go to Playlist.com to make your play list of five songs. Choose a particular theme to share with us. You can simply post the play list, or you can add a little summary about what you are sharing.

3. I don't know how to make a specific linky, so be sure to leave me a comment to let me know that you participated.

4. No tags, but feel free to invite your friends to play along if they need a post topic on a Friday.

So, Nancy and I are in NOLA when you get to read this. Meeting our friends later today and then we will hit the French Quarter. We are going to check out a gentleman named John Boutte Saturday night, a suggestion from our friend JOHNH of "Voices To Hear" and maybe we might even get to meet him at the gig!

Probably go down to the Bayou and take an AirBoat tour...and eat eat eat!

Enjoy the sounds of some of NOLAs finest musicians.

If you do not know these artists, you can find out more about them at their sites:

DR. JOHN
JOSH CHARLES (not the actor)
AARON NEVILLE
FATS DOMINO
MARCIA BALL

ENJOY YOUR WEEKEND

and

THE LINEUP...

Sparks Of Insanity By Vinny "Bond" Marini Thursday, March 06, 2008 21 Of Your Sparks

WOW...fell asleep last night and when we woke up we realized we never even posted...THAT is a first...

The line-up is out...last year was FREAKIN' GREAT...this year is GOING TO BE EVEN BETTER!!!

HEY TEAMSTER!!!! We get to see Mr. Musslewhite...!!!!

Thinking Friday night is going to be a tough night. They use three stages and the Blues tent and the shows go on simultaneously - We are hoping Musslewhite, Jonny Lang, Keb Mo' and Ben Folds are not all on somewhere at the same time...and would like to see Joan Jett again...and Sheryl Crow...thinking that may be too much to ask...

Saturday the MUST is Santana (most likely main stage last of the evening...) and we would like to see Richard Johnston (he is playing all three days), Lou Reed and Blind Mississippi Morris...

Sunday is simple Black Crowes, ARETHA! and Doyle Bramhall are the must sees....

$63.00 for all THREE DAYS...this is one hell of a deal...

CHECK IT OUT!





We will feature two memes on Monday...the iPod meme we are borrowing from Travis and we will finally unveil our Message In A Bottle meme from the Queen Of The Meme's, Ms. Mimi...

We have been teasing her for the last few weeks - and she in turn refuses to score me fairly on the Comeback Challenge has been teasing me back...

We have avoided the dungeon and have even engineered a break-out but it has all been in fun...

So, our Message In A Bottle will appear then also...

AH FREAK ME - SOUND THE FREAKIN' TRUMPETS...MAKE THEM ROAR
NOW, NOW...WHY SHOULD HE NOT SPEAK ABOUT UPCOMING EVENTS...

Moving on...moving on....

So, BIG NEWS!!! Memphis is expecting somewhere between 2" and 5" of snow over the next 24 hours...today it was about 60 in the afternoon...once again, there is not a quart of milk or a loaf of bread on the shelves within 200 miles...

It is a phenomena we, from the Northeast, can not comprehend. We will of course, stay off the road as much as possible, because the natives who take to the roadways are...well, they are NOT adept at operating 2 tons or more of steel on slick roadways...let's leave it at that...



Enjoy your weekend..............................................................................................enjoy some Tuneage
