New Orleans?
It's awesome. We spent the last half of our honeymoon there. A city dedicated, even obsessed you might say, with good food, good drink and good, no make that Great music!

 

[Stryder Wolfe]

Thanks to the Simpsons....

Here's what pops into my head when people mention New Orleans.

. Long before the Superdome,
. Where the Saints of football play,
. There's a city where the darned call home,
. Hear their hellish rondelet:
.
. New Orleans!
. Home of pirates, drunks, and whores...
. New Orleans!
. Tacky, overpriced souvenir stores...
.
. If you want to go to he11, you should take a trip
. To the Sodom and Gomorrah of the Mississip':
.
. New Orleans!
. Stinking, rotten, vomiting, vile...
. New Orleans!
. Putrid, brackish, maggotty, foul...
.
. New Orleans!
. Crummy, lousy, rancid and rank...
. New Orleans!
. ...

STELLLLLLAAAAAAAA!!!!!

I always think of the Hip song first, but that one is in my head too

for those that don't know:

"New Orleans Is Sinking"

Bourbon blues on the street loose and complete
Under skies all smoky blue-green
I can Forksake the dixie dead shake
So we dance the sidewalk clean
My memory is muddy what's this river that I'm in
if New Orleans is sinking man then I don't want to swim

Colonel Tom What's wrong? What's Going On
You can't tie yourself up for a deal
He said" Hey North you're south shut your big mouth
You gotta do what you feel is real."
Ain't got no picture postcards ain't got no souvenirs
My baby she don't know me when I'm thinking about those years

Pale as a light bulb hanging on a wire
Sucking up to someone just to stoke the fire
Picking out the highlights of the scenery
Saw a little cloud, it looked a little like me

I had My hand in the river
My feet back up on the banks
Looked up to the Lord above and said hey man thanks
Some times I feel so good I gotta scream
She says Gordie baby I know exactly what you mean
She said, she said I swear to God she said ......

My memory is muddy what's this river that I'm in
if New Orleans is sinking man then I don't want to swim

Why did you put your pants on the cat? He looks funny.

Yet more N'awlins...

Here's a sample of a little ditty about New Orleans during that sweet innocent festival of life and love called Mardi Gras. It's by some friends of mine from Memphis called FreeWorld:
