Preservation Hall Jazz Band

It was an easy night of Big Easy jazz, led by the kings of the sound, the Preservation Hall Jazz Band.
A freewheeling night of the music that put the Crescent City on the musical map, the concert began with a short film detailing the history of the famed music hall, and ended up with a huge parade of musicians and audience members, dancing on the stage and around the theater.

I hope it was a happy birthday, Mayor Judy!
One early note from a patron today that said it simply and clearly "FANTASTIC show on Saturday night." (Susan Brown.)
