Launched the gofundme for the Musicians, Mentors, & Barroom Heroes Highlights (& Low-Lifes…) album, which is in the works as we “speak”! Thank you so much to everyone who’s kicked in, youse rock. Click here to contribute! All album proceeds will go to WHIV 102.3 FM and the New Orleans Musicians’ Clinic. Plus, you’ll get to hear live tunes/shenanigans from the past year of music and madcappery!

Several of the magicians who will appear on the album played live on last week’s show, we spun a bunch of local recorded tracks, we drank some seriously basic drinks (O’Doul’s out of a mug, vodka cran…) …a good time was had by all. Thank you to Rose for these photos I klepto’d 🙂
